Huawei to double AI chip production in 2025

Huawei is set to double production of its flagship 910C Ascend AI chips in 2025, targeting around 600,000 units, according to sources.

The company will also raise total output of its Ascend line to as many as 1.6 million dies in 2026.

Huawei partners with Semiconductor Manufacturing International Corp. to produce the chips, which are used by Chinese tech firms such as Alibaba and DeepSeek.

Nvidia, restricted from selling advanced chips in China, sold about 1 million H20 chips in 2024 but recorded no sales in the last quarter.

Huawei’s current chips use 7nm technology, while Nvidia’s GPUs are on 4nm.

Huawei plans to launch an upgraded 950DT in late 2026, followed by the 960 and 970 through 2028.
