US-Made ‘Chiplet’ Tech Emerges as Core China Chip Strategy
By Jim Pollard, AsiaFinancial (July 13, 2023)
Patents for small computer chips, developed by a struggling US company, were sold to China two years ago, in a move some say highlights a need to reform the government watchdog CFIUS
Patents for ‘chiplets’ – small computer chips – developed by a struggling Silicon Valley company in the United States, were sold to China in 2021.
But questions about how this happened, and whether the Committee on Foreign Investment in the United States (CFIUS), could, or should, have done more to retain ownership of this technology, are now being asked because chipset technology is booming in China.
The sale of startup zGlue’s patents in 2021 was unremarkable except for the technology it owned, designed to cut the time and cost for making chips, showed up 13 months later in the patent portfolio of Chipuller, a startup in China’s southern tech hub Shenzhen.
