GoKawiilSolidigm seeks US approval to ship chip tools to China plant tied to New York factory plan
SK Hynix's Solidigm unit is reportedly asking the U.S. government for permission to send American chipmaking equipment to its Dalian, China facility, linking that approval to its plan to build a NAND flash memory factory in upstate New York, according to Reuters sources. SK Hynix told TechCrunch it is not trying to expand capacity at Dalian and that the equipment move is being coordinated with and authorized by U.S. officials.
