Nvidia's design flaw with Blackwell AI chips now fixed, CEO says
Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said on Wednesday a design flaw with its latest Blackwell AI chips which impacted production has been fixed with the help of longtime Taiwanese manufacturing partner TSMC.
Nvidia unveiled Blackwell chips in March and had earlier said they would ship in the second quarter but were delayed, potentially affecting customers such as Meta Platforms, Alphabet's, Google and Microsoft.
«We had a design flaw in Blackwell,» Huang said. «It was functional, but the design flaw caused the yield to be low. It was 100% Nvidia's fault.»
According to media reports, the delay in production had caused tensions between Nvidia and TSMC but Huang dismissed that as «fake news».
«In order to make a Blackwell computer work, seven different types of chips were designed from scratch and had to be ramped into production at the same time,» he said.
