Micron to cease supply of server memory chips to data centres in China after ban: sources



Micron Technology plans to stop supplying server memory chips to data centres in China after the business failed to recover from a 2023 government ban on its products in critical Chinese infrastructure, according to two people briefed on the decision.
Since then, both Nvidia and Intel have similarly fielded accusations from Chinese authorities and an industry group of their products posing as security risks, though there has not been any regulatory action.
Micron, however, will continue to sell to two Chinese customers that have significant data centre operations outside China, one of which is personal computer maker Lenovo Group, the people said.
Headquartered in Boise, Idaho, Micron will also continue to sell chips to automotive and smartphone sector customers in the world’s second-largest economy, one person said.

The company made US$3.4 billion, or 12 per cent, of its total revenue from mainland China in its last financial year.
