Chapter 94 Breaking through 128nm

 With the arrival of the Lunar New Year, Xu Cong also returned to Magic City and had a good year with his family.
Regarding the Chinese New Year this year, Xu Cong is relatively relaxed.
Steal half a day's leisure.
To be honest, once the New Year is over this year, Xu Cong will devote all his experience to the listing of the company.
The current Wanxiang Technology Company has been successfully operating for three years, and during these three years of operation, the company's annual profits have exceeded 10 billion.
At the same time, the company has completed the internal purchase of shares, which fully meets the current listing standards.
Of course, it is actually not as easy as imagined for domestic technology companies to go public.
The review is relatively strict.
Especially for some top companies with domestic influence, the review will become more stringent.
After New Year's Day this year, Wanxiang Technology Company has applied for listing.
It may take several months for the company to pass the listing review.
However, after the company goes public, Wanxiang Technology will experience rapid growth.
Even the overall influence will gradually expand at home and abroad.
"Son, you are not young anymore. Do you have a girl you like at work?"
"Yes, your career has become quite big now, and it's time to consider finding a partner to start a family!"
Now Xu Baili and his wife are more concerned about their son's marriage.
Xu Cong has been someone else’s child since he was a child.
During the college entrance examination, I was admitted to the most powerful university of science and technology in China, Hua University of Science and Technology.
After graduation, he directly became a big boss in the entire Internet industry through entrepreneurial development.
It's just that Xu Cong, as a good student and a good boy, has never been in love once since he was a child.
It is for this reason that Xu Baili and his wife are still a little worried about their son's relationship status, and even during the Spring Festival, they did not forget to urge their son to find a partner as soon as possible.
Faced with his parents' pressure to get married, Xu Cong behaved very calmly and calmly.
He used perfunctory words to temporarily avoid his parents' urging to marry.
"Mom and Dad, to tell you the truth, my company Wanxiang Technology will be listed next year. I'm afraid I need to be in the company during the operation next year. As for falling in love, I'm afraid I have to wait.
Got it!"
And Xu Cong was also very clever and used the matter of the company's listing to directly reject his parents.
After all, Xu Cong has now turned all his attention to career development, which is the first goal in his heart.
As for feelings, it still depends on fate.
Maybe one day you’ll fall in love with it!
After sending his parents away, Xu Cong also spent a good year at home.
The New Year is gradually passing, and the first news of the New Year makes Xu Cong a little excited now.
ZTE International, as a giant in the domestic semiconductor manufacturing field, has finally broken through the process to 128 nanometers after years of hard work.
From the establishment of the project to the research and development of the technology, and finally to the commercialization of the overall product, it took a total of almost one year and seven months.
"ZTE International is the first to break through the 128nm process technology in the semiconductor field! The semiconductor field will usher in a new 128nm era!"
After ZTE International made a breakthrough in chip manufacturing technology, reports followed one after another.
As a breakthrough node that semiconductor companies are pursuing, 128nm has always been the core of the development of global semiconductor companies.
ZTE International took the lead in making technological breakthroughs and fully applying this technology to commercial applications.
This means that ZTE International now has a correspondingly mature technology based on this new manufacturing process, and it also has a very high yield rate.
As the report continues to deepen, the yield rate of ZTE International's new manufacturing process has also been exposed to the public's vision.
99.9998% yield.
The ultra-high yield rate also determines that this technology can be fully used in business.
The exposure of this news also means that ZTE International has surpassed other international semiconductor technology companies in terms of performance in chip semiconductor manufacturing.
Treasure Island! As the top semiconductor technology company in Treasure Island, TSMC also held an emergency meeting after learning the news.
TSMC and ZTE have always been at odds with each other.
After all, Zhang Rujin, the founder of ZTE International, came from TSMC.
From TSMC's perspective, this is a naked betrayal.
This also resulted in the two companies not dealing with each other.
Now, as an old enemy, ZTE International has made new breakthroughs in chip semiconductor manufacturing technology. This is a very big blow to TSMC.
A higher level of process technology will inevitably attract the attention of some top semiconductor design companies. By then, ZTE will be able to rely on this technology to completely seize more of TSMC's order share.
“ZTE International has always adopted technologies proposed by TSMC in certain aspects of technology. As the founder of ZTE International, Zhang Rujin understands many of TSMC’s technologies and is very likely to apply these technologies in ZTE International’s production lines.
Hit!"
"This time it's time to prepare for action, otherwise if this continues, the other company will definitely step on our head!"
As the current head of TSMC, Zhang Zhongmou is also determined to start a counterattack to face ZTE International.
The target they chose to target was Zhang Rujin, the founder of ZTE International who once worked at TSMC and mastered many core technologies.
Xu Cong didn't pay much attention to what TSMC was doing. After getting the news, he rushed to Sugon Semiconductor as soon as possible.
Breakthroughs in new manufacturing processes mean that new processor chips can begin formal production.
This time Sugon Semiconductor needs to produce a lot of chips.
In addition to the original design chips, within one and a half years, the company also designed two different processor chips.
The first one is naturally the processor chip prepared for the next Hongjun Technology products, and it can also be regarded as an iterative version of the first-generation chip.
Compared with the first generation of chips, there have been fundamental changes in core technology, and the CPU adopts a brand new core.
Compared with the previous generation CPU core performance, the overall core performance has increased by 40%. At the same time, under medium and low load conditions, the CPU energy consumption has been reduced by 25%.
If this chip can be produced, it can completely control the full version of the transition animation of the current HOS system, which will make the product have a very deep product improvement in terms of system operation experience.
In addition to the substantial improvement in the CPU, there has also been a certain improvement in the number of ASP cores, enabling the entire processor chip to support 1080p 30-frame video shooting and support up to 8 million pixels.
Obviously, the current generation of products equipped with this processor will have improvements in image photography and videography, thereby improving the imaging experience of smartphones and making it a major selling point of the product.
The other chip is a public version chip used to match the Taixu system.
The instruction set of this chip is completely different from the instruction set used by the current processor chip of Hongjun Technology HPone.
Among the instruction sets in historical chips, the most well-known is the instruction set of the arm architecture, and the instruction sets of arm chips are divided into armv7 and armv8.
Of course, the instruction set can also be called the instruction set system or CPU architecture.
The most well-known instruction sets are IA-32, X86 instruction set, etc.
But with the blessing of corresponding black technology, Xu Cong has many more excellent architectural technologies of the original instruction set in later generations.
Hongjun Technology's processor chips use the C64 instruction set, which has faster computing and transmission speeds than most instruction sets.
It has natural advantages in machine code assembly instructions.
Moreover, this type of instructions and instructions for multiple devices have the best coordination capabilities. Although many cores of the HOS system are borrowed from the IOS of Xu Cong's plane, the essential system programming is still completely different.<
/p>
The public version of the processor uses the C32 instruction set that is compatible with the Taixu system.
Its instruction cache is worse than the c64 instruction set, but it has the advantage of better compatible execution and implementation of logical function instructions.
This means that processor chips that use this type of instruction set will have natural advantages in terms of system compatibility, but they are somewhat inferior in computing power.
When smartphones are just starting to take off, Xu Cong wants to completely build the corresponding software and hardware system ecology of smartphones and have a say in its future development.
In terms of system architecture and chip design, having an independent design language and technical structure, and popularizing these things will surely achieve market share.
The architecture of the public version also has a modified core. Although it is designed using the latest 128nm process technology, it has been castrated in cache and other aspects.
The overall performance is basically the same as the performance of the processor chip used on the current HPone generation, but its power consumption performance will be slightly better.
Of course, this public version of the processor chip and the future Taixu system will become the first choice for users in the smartphone industry.
Just like Android and Gaotong in Xu Cong's original plane.
Xu Cong also hopes that Rebus can establish a company as soon as possible to promote the development of the smartphone industry at a more affordable price, so that the new system and public version architecture can be popularized as soon as possible.
Chapter completed!
