The U.S. Department of Commerce’s Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) today released a report on the use of mature-node semiconductor chips in supply chains supporting U.S. critical infrastructure.

According to the related BIS release, the report highlights U.S. companies' reliance on legacy chips manufactured by entities in China, and shows that:

  • Many companies lack visibility into their semiconductor supply chains, with about half unable to determine if their products contain chips from Chinese-based foundries.
  • Over two-thirds of products from U.S. companies contain Chinese-origin chips, though these represent a small portion of the total chips used.
  • The expansion of chip production capacity in China is causing pricing pressure that could weaken U.S. suppliers' competitiveness.

The findings are part of a BIS survey initiated in January 2024 to assess how companies source mature-node semiconductors.
