ByteDance, the owner of TikTok, is collaborating with American chip designer Broadcom to develop a 5-nanometer application-specific integrated chip (ASIC) in order to secure a reliable supply of high-end chips amidst US-China tensions. The AI processor would adhere to US export restrictions, with manufacturing outsourced to Taiwan’s TSMC.
This partnership is significant as no Chinese and American collaborations involving 5 nanometer or larger chip technology have been announced publicly since US export controls on cutting-edge semiconductors were introduced in 2022. Most US-China chip deals focus on less advanced technologies.
By working with Broadcom, an established business partner, ByteDance aims to lower procurement costs and ensure a consistent supply of high-end chips. The sources providing this information chose to remain anonymous due to the sensitivity of semiconductor issues in China.
