Netlist Seeks U.S. Import Ban on Micron Chips Used in Google, Nvidia AI Computing
Netlist has filed a complaint at a U.S. trade tribunal seeking to block imports of Micron memory chips used in Google, Nvidia, and Broadcom products for AI computing.
The complaint alleges that Micron's chips and the tech giants' products infringe two of Netlist's patents covering 'high bandwidth memory' technology.
Netlist won a $445 million patent infringement verdict against Micron in 2024 and has filed another ITC complaint against Micron over memory chips used in Super Micro Computer, Hewlett Packard Enterprise, and Lenovo products.
The company's CEO, C.K. Hong, said that Netlist has 'spent decades developing advanced memory technologies now used in rapidly expanding AI infrastructure.'
