Netlist filed a new complaint with the U.S. International Trade Commission seeking an import ban on Micron memory chips used in AI-computing products by Google, Nvidia, and Broadcom. Netlist alleges that the products infringe two patents covering high-bandwidth memory technology. The action follows a $445 million patent-infringement verdict against Micron in 2024 and could create import restrictions, legal costs, and disruption risk if the requested remedy succeeds.
