Analysis<\/span> The US has ramped up trade restrictions against YMTC, China’s biggest domestic flash memory supplier, triggering concerns that the chipmaker will face significant production issues and potentially be forced to exit the 3D NAND market.<\/p>\n

This is based on reactions from analysts and researchers to the news this week<\/a> that the US Department of Commerce has placed YMTC, alongside 35 other Chinese companies, on its so-called Entity List, which requires firms on the list to receive a special license to important certain American technologies.<\/p>\n

Short for Yangtze Memory Technologies Co., YMTC was placed on the Department’s Unverified List back in October<\/a> as part of the White House’s big move to curb China’s domestic semiconductor industry by restricting exports of US-made advanced chip-making equipment. By adding YMTC to the Entity List, the US is blocking it from procuring even more supplies it needs to produce flash memory chips, unless it obtains a special license.<\/p>\n
