DOJ informed Alpha and Omega Semiconductor on Jan. 19 that it has closed, without bring criminal charges, its three-year investigation into the company’s compliance with export control regulations against Huawei and its subsidiaries, said the chipmaker Thursday. The company “is pleased with this decision” and intends to continue cooperating with the Commerce Department’s ongoing Huawei civil investigation, it said. At Commerce’s request, Alpha and Omega Semiconductor hasn't shipped product to Huawei since December 2019, it said.
