LONDON - British-based chip designer ARM said on Wednesday it was complying with a move by the United States to block China’s Huawei from accessing U.S. technology.Huawei, in common with Apple and chipmakers like Qualcomm, uses ARM blueprints to design the processors that power its smartphones. It also licenses graphics technology from the Cambridge-based company.
The United States blocked Huawei from buying U.S. goods last week, jeopardising ties with Google, which provides the Android operating system and services like Gmail and Google Maps, as well as hardware partners such as ARM. The BBC reported earlier on Wednesday that ARM, which is owned by Japan’s Softbank, had instructed employees to halt “all active contracts, support entitlements, and any pending engagements” with Huawei after the United States added Huawei to a list of companies with which U.S. firms could not do business.
It told staff they were no longer allowed to “provide support, delivery technology , engage in technical discussions, or otherwise discuss technical matters” with Huawei, according to the memo seen by the BBC.
