As Beijing blocks American silicon like AMD and Intel from government use, Chinese chipmaker Phytium reported selling over 10 million Feiteng series processors. Taiwanese media outlet IT Home (machine translated) said that most of these chips are used in key national projects and industries and can be found anywhere from cloud servers to terminals used by end users.
Despite being put on the U.S. entity list, meaning Phytium cannot legally import and use American-made components, it was still able to develop and build advanced chip solutions. For example, last year, the company revealed the 64-core Feiteng Tengyun S2500 server CPU and the Phytium FTC870, rivaling Arm’s Neoverse N2 chip. It also released the Feiteng Tengrui D3000 desktop processor for use in the office setting.
