The watered down H20 chips were designed to comply with the former administration’s restrictions on the export of high-performance AI chips to China.

Nvidia said on Monday that it expects to resume sales of its H20 graphics processing units to China as the U.S. government has given assurances that it will grant the tech giant’s license applications.

“The U.S. government has assured NVIDIA that licenses will be granted, and NVIDIA hopes to start deliveries soon,” the company stated in a blogpost on July 14, without specifying any timeline for the deliveries.
