July 14 (Reuters) - Nvidia ( NVDA ) said on Monday that
it will resume sales of its H20 graphics processing unit (GPU)
chips to China and has introduced a new model tailored to meet
regulatory requirements in the Chinese market.
According to a company blog post, Nvidia ( NVDA ) is filing
applications to resume H20 sales with the U.S. government and
expects to get the licenses soon. Deliveries are expected to
begin shortly thereafter.
The company announced a new RTX Pro GPU designed
specifically for China. Nvidia ( NVDA ) described the model as "fully
compliant" and suitable for digital twin AI applications in
sectors such as smart factories and logistics.
The chipmaker's CEO Jensen Huang met with U.S. President
Donald Trump and policymakers in Washington and later with
officials in Beijing, as part of efforts to promote AI
cooperation and highlight Nvidia's ( NVDA ) support for open-source
research and global AI development, the company said.
In May, Reuters reported that the company was planning to
release a downgraded version of its H20 artificial intelligence
chip for China following U.S. export restrictions on the
original model.
