The US treasury department finalized a rule on Monday that limits domestic entities' investment in Chinese semiconductors and microelectronics, quantum information technologies, and AI.

When it comes to semiconductors and microelectronics, transactions involving specific electronic design automation software, certain fabrication and advanced packaging tools, the design or fabrication of advanced integrated circuits, advanced packaging techniques, and supercomputers are prohibited. Those related to the design, fabrication, or packaging of integrated circuits not covered by these prohibitions must be reported to the government.
