The move comes just weeks after Beijing reportedly summoned Nvidia and asked it to explain the H20's architecture, citing fears of remote-control capabilities or backdoors. Shipments of the chip had been expected to resume after the U.

According to The Information, NVIDIA told Arizona-based Amkor Technology and Samsung Electronics to put a pause on their work for the H20.

Nvidia has reportedly told some of its component suppliers to suspend production work for its made-for-China H20 general processing units.
