Huawei began to stock up on unfinished processors due to US sanctions

A ban will soon come into force that will prevent chip manufacturers from creating semiconductor

components for Huawei using American technology. Because of these US sanctions, the company began stocking up on unfinished processors.

Huawei has two and a half weeks left toto stock up on the required number of chips. Sources write that the company is now filling warehouses with all possible components: single-chip systems for smartphones, Wi-Fi adapters, various modules. In addition, Huawei has to purchase unfinished processors: either not assembled or not fully tested. The company even wants to collect silicon wafers.

Huawei reportedly started calling suppliers early in the morning or at midnight. The company is now in survival mode, the source said.
