WASHINGTON, Sept 29 : Computer-memory company Netlist said on Tuesday that it has filed a new complaint at a U.S. trade tribunal seeking to block imports of Micron memory chips used in Google, Nvidia and Broadcom products for AI computing.
• Netlist said in the complaint, first filed under seal at the U.S. International Trade Commission on Friday, that Micron’s chips and the tech giants’ products infringe two of its patents covering “high bandwidth memory” technology
• The company asked the tribunal to bar imports of Micron dynamic random access memory (DRAM) devices and Google, Nvidia and Broadcom graphics processing units, servers and other products that incorporate Micron’s infringing technology
• Spokespeople for Micron, Google, Nvidia and Broadcom did not immediately respond to requests for comment on Tuesday
