Dr. Yu set up the shelves of the chip factory step by step, this is a delicate job, and I can't be in a hurry.

The company's affairs were handed over to Zhang Yi, and the sales of the switch, the negotiation with Nintendo, including the sales of software in the United States, were all in her hands, and the power was unrivaled for a while.

And for a long time with a group of electronic engineers began the product development after the completion of the chip factory, with a long-term estimate, Nintendo will definitely not be able to resist the temptation of low prices, as long as the negotiation can be successful, its own chip factory annual production capacity of 2, 3 million pieces must be fully opened, Nintendo alone orders have to fill the production plan, in a sense, the new factory is now prepared for Nintendo.

In history, the sales volume of Nintendo's red and white machines is a mythical number, and the genuine version alone has reached 60 million, not to mention the overwhelming pirated machines, so the chip factory must be built again.

Supplying Nintendo's game consoles is only the basis for survival, and the 021 processor is a mature product, and there should be no major difficulty in manufacturing, so as the first mass-produced model, it can be used to practice and accumulate production experience.

But if you want to really make money and make huge profits, you have to break into the mainstream market and provide unique chip products. For example, Intel's previous dynamic memory series, now CPUs and rewritable ROMs, not only cannot be provided by others, but also firmly control downstream derivatives, as long as you want to do it, you can enter.

Therefore, I have long considered how to enter this market normally, in fact, from the perspective of producers, it is really a loss-making business to do CPU, not only to spend a lot of money to develop, but also to spend a lot of effort to promote, and how many CPUs can be on a computer? In addition to alternative consumer electronic products such as game consoles, there are not many products that can produce and digest CPU on a large scale in this era, and even Intel in this era also relies on the gold-absorbing product of memory to support the processor department.

Someone has calculated that for every CPU sold in the world, at least 8 memories can be sold, and there are countless other circuit chips.

It's just that the era of high prices for dynamic memory is gone, and in a few years the Japanese will enter this market on a large scale, and it will be even more unprofitable.

At the end of the 70s, in order to break the dominance of the United States in the field of integrated circuits, in the field of semiconductors, in terms of basic and common technologies, the government came forward to organize various enterprises to concentrate technical forces to jointly tackle key problems in the integrated circuit manufacturing industry.

The Ministry of International Trade and Industry (MITI) has come forward to organize four companies (Fujitsu, NEC, etc.), each with 30 researchers, all talented young people in their 20s and 30s, a total of 120 people. In addition, the Ministry of International Trade and Industry will have a director, and each company will have a director, for a total of 4 research rooms. We decomposed more than 30 issues, including various aspects of equipment and processes, and planned to solve them in three years, but in less than three years, all these issues were solved.

The shared basic technology was successfully developed, and the four companies immediately took it back to develop their own products. Almost overnight, a large number of Japanese dynamic memory appeared in the international market, and with the support of the government, they were dumped all over the world at prices even lower than the cost, and even the Americans could not resist it, and for a time the dynamic memory production plants closed down or changed production.

Even Intel was hit hard, and after resisting for a while, it had to give up dynamic memory products and concentrate on CPU.

I have long thought that I don't have the ability of Intel, so I am not sensitive to investing in dynamic memory products, and when your factory is built, memory products come out, and the daylily is cold.

Or stick to processor products, it seems that the foreigner president of Siemens has said that the better microcomputer sold in Europe is 0521, and IBM's PC has not yet been released in Europe.

IBM only showed its PC in France in 83, and Intel was really popular in Europe, and its single board controller series took the market first.

The 021 processor has a fast computing speed and an unparalleled position in the field of real-time control, so the high-end control system uses the 021 processor more.

The long-standing 021 processor is an eight-bit design, born out of the RISC architecture. It was not easy to achieve the optimal ratio of transistor number and performance with the production technology at that time.

It's just that now it's declining, and the world has entered the era of large applications of 16-bit processors, and those quasi-32-bit processors have also appeared. No one will continue to use the 8-bit CPU on the microcomputer, as the foreigner from Siemens said, the 8-bit system is really similar to a toy, and you can't play advanced large-scale programs, even if it's 0521, it's just a high-end toy.

Therefore, I have been planning for a long time how to develop the next generation of 021 processor products, compatibility must be a must, otherwise no one will bird you, no matter how great your appeal is.

Isn't Zilog a bird? The main product z80 was about to sell like crazy back then, and finally it was hot-headed and released an incompatible 16-bit product, which was a mess.

This mistake will definitely not be made for a long time, even if the performance of the processor is reduced, it must be compatible, and now the question is only whether to do 16-bit step by step, or to burst out directly to 32-bit.

In terms of system complexity, RISC does not require many transistors for expansion, and the difference between 16-bit and 32-bit is not large, so the design difficulty is not a major problem.

In terms of 32-bit processors, only 3 to 40,000 transistors are needed for a long-term design, and RISC's processor architecture is well-structured and has no micro-instruction control part, which is especially suitable for computer wiring, and the labor time required for design is greatly reduced.

And according to Dr. Yu, his line design can guarantee an accuracy of 2 microns, and the production line has the potential to be upgraded to one micron if there is time.

But this is only technologically advanced, and the key is to cooperate with the market. There are still a large number of 8-bit external devices on the market, and even 16-bit ones are not very many, let alone 32-bit peripherals, which is also the foundation of PC and Apple's second generation.

32-bit is definitely the trend, and there is no difficulty in long-term architecture design and manufacturing, but the time is not yet yet, the market is not ready, and the work on the cloud can only be a flower, which is not popular.

APHLA was also an example of that year, claiming to be the world's first 64-bit processor, and had long occupied the first place in performance, but the market did not recognize it at all, and it ended dismally.

How to do a good job of coordination, be able to make 32-bit performance, and be able to access 16-bit peripherals, this is a big problem. For a long time, I still want to borrow from Motorola's 68000, although it is a CISC processor, which is extremely large (a full 70,000 transistors), but its design concept is still good.

That is, the core runs at 32 bits, and the external interface is transmitted at 16 bits, taking into account both performance and market, and even the cost is much reduced.

This is also a reference to the relationship between 8086 and 8088, and after a long time, it was decided to skip the 16-bit system directly and go directly to the 32-bit CPU.

The new processor is a 32-bit core with a 16-bit external bus, which is exactly the same when it is produced, and if necessary, the external package is changed, and it is a new 32-bit processor.
