US probes Samsung for alleged infringement of Netlist's memory-chip patents
SOXX•US trade regulators open probe into Samsung memory chips
July 16 (Reuters) - U.S. trade regulators have launched a probe into Samsung Electronics' memory chips and products sold by Google, Nvidia, Broadcom and Super Micro Computer that use them after a complaint by Netlist alleging infringement of its patents.
California-based Netlist has accused Samsung and its U.S. units of infringing its patents on dynamic random access memory, a type of chip that temporarily stores data for processors and is a critical component in the servers powering the AI boom, the U.S. International Trade Commission (USITC) said on Wednesday.
