Implementation as soon as next month! The United States will further tighten the restrictions on the export of semiconductor equipment to China
According to “Bloomberg” exclusively citing people familiar with the matter, U.S. President Joe Biden will further tighten restrictions on the export of semiconductor manufacturing equipment to China, and has briefed U.S. companies on the plan, which is expected to happen as soon as next month. Announce relevant restrictions.
U.S. President Biden announced export control measures in October 2022, restricting U.S. manufacturers from selling certain advanced chips and manufacturing equipment to Chinese manufacturers, so as to restrict China’s development of supercomputer and semiconductor development technology, and prevent China from developing weapons of mass destruction through chips, etc. military system.
According to reports quoted by Bloomberg, the Biden administration has briefed U.S. companies on the latest restrictive measures, and announced that the latest restrictive measures will be launched as soon as next month. Materials) and other US semiconductor equipment manufacturers have an impact.

Judging from the current export control of 17 types of equipment for manufacturing advanced semiconductors, if Japan , The Netherlands joins the boycott, and the number of restricted devices will double again.
Global semiconductor manufacturing equipment is dominated by Applied Materials, KLA, and Lam Research in the United States, Tokyo Electron in Japan, and ASML in the Netherlands. The goal of tightening restrictions on the export of semiconductor equipment to China is to prevent the development of China’s advanced chip industry.
