SK Hynix Inc. has opened an investigation into the use of its chips in the latest phone from Huawei Technologies Co., after a teardown of the device revealed its memory and flash storage inside.
SK海力士公司已开始调查华为技术有限公司(Huawei Technologies Co.)

Shenzhen-based Huawei’s Mate 60 Pro uses Hynix’s LPDDR5 and NAND flash memory, said TechInsights, who conducted the teardown of the device for Bloomberg News. The handset’s components are almost entirely provided by Chinese suppliers and Hynix’s hardware is an isolated example of materials sourced from overseas, according to TechInsights.
总部位于深圳的华为 Mate 60 Pro 采用了海力士的 LPDDR5 和 NAND 闪存。据 TechInsights 称,这款手机的组件几乎全部由中国供应商提供,海力士的硬件只是从海外采购材料的一个孤例。

Icheon-based Hynix “no longer does business with Huawei since the introduction of the US restrictions against the company and, with regard to the issue, we started an investigation to find out more details,” a company spokeswoman said in a statement to Bloomberg News on Thursday. “SK Hynix is strictly abiding by the US government’s export restrictions.”
总部位于利川的海力士公司发言人周四在给彭博新闻社的一份声明中说,"自美国对华为实施限制措施以来,我们不再与该公司有业务往来。"SK海力士严格遵守美国政府的出口限制"。

Hynix shares in Seoul erased gains on the day after the statement. A Huawei representative did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
声明发表后,海力士在首尔的股票抹去了当天的涨幅。华为代表没有立即回应置评请求。

It’s unclear how Huawei may have procured the memory chips from Hynix, which makes most of its semiconductors at plants in China. One possibility is that Huawei may be tapping a stockpile of components it accumulated as far back as 2020 before the full set of US trade curbs had been imposed on it. International suppliers of advanced technology have been prohibited from supplying Huawei over the past three years by US trade curbs, implemented on fears of the hardware being used to aid China’s military.
目前还不清楚华为是如何从海力士采购存储芯片的,海力士的大部分半导体都是在中国工厂生产的。一种可能性是,华为可能利用了早在 2020 年美国对其实施全套贸易限制措施之前就积累起来的元件库存。过去三年来,美国的贸易限制措施禁止国际先进技术供应商向华为供货,因为美国担心这些硬件会被用于协助中国军方。
