Chapter 299: Exchanging Qilin 920

Xue Lianxing's calculations, Bao Bufan's instigation, and Su Quino's careful thinking, Lu Yan all saw it in his eyes.

In fact, if you think about it carefully, it is indeed a good choice to marry a wealthy family. Or that the political family, like Bao Bufan's choice, is more helpful to the cause.

It's just that I met Ruan Xiaoxiao early, and after so many years, I can't bear to be sad about her!

After hesitating for a while, he sent a text message back, "I'm really sorry, the chip company has just opened, and there are a lot of things, and Shenzhou and Meituan can't take care of it, so I must find time to entertain you in the next two days!"

At Shenghai Airport, Su Quinoa, who had just sat down, received such information, and his eyes were still a little gloomy.

He immediately smiled and replied, "It's okay, your work is important, don't worry about me!"

Then he sent a message to Bao Bufan and said, "I'll arrive in Jinling at six o'clock and pick me up at the airport!" and then turned off his mobile phone.

He took out an eye patch from his satchel and put it over his head to put it on his head.

But he said that Lu Yan saw the information that Su Quinoa came back, smiled, and didn't care about anything else.

Instead, I picked up the design plan of the company's R&D department and took a closer look.

The first step in chip design is to set a goal

The most important step in IC design is specification development.

It's like deciding on a floor plan before designing a building. How to arrange several rooms, living rooms, and kitchens, and how to go through pipelines. Once you've identified all the features, you're working on the design so you don't have to spend extra time making subsequent modifications.

IC design requires similar steps to ensure that the chip is designed without any errors.

The first step in specification development is to determine the purpose and performance of the IC, and to set the general direction.

Then it is to check what protocols need to be complied with, such as the chip of the wireless network card needs to meet the specifications of IEEE802.11, otherwise, the chip cannot be compatible with the products on the market and cannot be connected to other devices.

Finally, it is necessary to establish the implementation method of the IC, distribute different functions into different units, and establish a method for connecting different units, so that the specifications can be formulated.

Once the specifications are designed, the next step is to design the details of the chip.

This step is like writing down a plan for the building, drawing the overall outline for subsequent drawing.

Once you have a complete plan, the next step is to draw a blueprint for the plan.

Finally, the synthesized code is put into another set of EDAtool for circuit layout and winding...... Layers of masks, stacking a chip.

To use a not-so-appropriate analogy, it's pretty much the same as designing a building. It's just that each floor of the house is the same, but the chips are different.

In addition, buildings are generally tens of meters or even hundreds of meters high. A chip, which may be only 2.5 centimeters square, contains tens of millions of transistors, all of which are nano-scale technology.

In terms of design, it is better to say something, but what is more difficult is to manufacture, especially the most important lithography machine, which is monopolized by the Dutch company ASML, and the advanced ones are not sold to China at all.

Lu Yan's Tianzhu system also has advanced lithography machine technology. It's a pity that the price is too high, and with his current points, he can't afford the kind that the country desperately needs.

However, the full set of technical design of HiSilicon's first popular Kirin 920 can be redeemed.

In other words, HiSilicon chip was founded in 2004, and it took a lot of detours in the early stage.

In 2009, the first smartphone chip - Hi3611 (K3V1) was launched, but because the product was not very mature, it was not marketed in the end.

By 2012, Huawei released the K3V2 chip, which uses a 1.5GHz quad-core Cortex-A9 architecture, integrates GC4000 GPU, and is manufactured using a 40nm process.

This chip is used in Huawei's own mobile phones such as P2, Mate1 and P6, but because the K3V2's 40nm process lags behind and GPU compatibility is not good, the final experience is not bad.

At the beginning of 2014, the Kirin 910 was released, using the 28nm HPM process, integrating the self-developed Balong710 baseband for the first time, and integrating Huajing Altek's ISP for the first time, which was the beginning of the rise of HiSilicon's Kirin chips.

But what really made the rise of Huawei's mobile phones and HiSilicon's chip name started was the Kirin 920, which was also established in early 2013 and born in the summer of 2014.

This chip, manufactured using the 28nmHPM process, integrates audio chips, video chips, ISP, and integrates the Balong720 baseband, the world's first self-developed LTECat.6, making the Honor 6, which is equipped with Kirin 920 for the first time, the world's first mobile phone to support LTECat.6.

As soon as the Honor 6 equipped with Kirin 920 came out, it soared to the first place in all running software, making HiSilicon's Kirin chip reach the status of competing with industry leader Qualcomm for the first time.

There are follow-up 930, 940, 950...... and the rise of Huawei phones.

Therefore, after various trade-offs and considerations, Lu Yan finally exchanged all the design technology of the Kirin 920 in the Tianzhu module of his self-improvement life system.

A total of 2 million money points, 1.2 million knowledge points, 500,000 sports points, 80,000 network points, and 30,000 fame points were spent.

After the exchange, he only had 4.4 million money points, 900,000 knowledge points, 2.6 million sports points, 120,000 network points, and 890,000 fame points.

Everything else is easy to say, the network points and fame points are evaluated by the system, and after the exchange, they slowly increase, mainly related to his personal situation and reputation.

Even if he doesn't do anything, these two things will slowly rise before the exchange.

But if something bad happens, it is also possible that it will reach a very low value overnight.

Sports points are not very valuable, willing to spend time, more exercise is.

In terms of knowledge points, you have to read more books and study more. Otherwise, if you want to exchange for high-tech technology in the future, 1.2 million knowledge points will not be enough to do anything.

The most rare thing is the money points, although 4.4 million is a lot, but in the high-tech area, it is not enough at all.

If he accidentally wastes it, his wealth will not be able to grow quickly and earn a large number of gold points.

Then the "Heavenly Aid Module" is equivalent to being abolished.

After exchanging the full set of design technology of the Kirin 920, Lu Yan didn't look at his system again, lest he couldn't help it, and exchanged some technologies that could not be applied temporarily, could not bring benefits, and obtained money points.

The Kirin 920 is different. Lead the team early, make the "design" more reasonable, and then OEM production, and then the mobile phone company can rise.

Therefore, these days, Lu Yan has almost been immersed in Kunlun Chip Company, working with the engineer team, constantly designing, discussing, and modifying, and then inadvertently, putting forward an amazing "genius idea"!

So much so that in a short period of time, there was a reputation as a genius designer, circulating in the circle of chip design.

Bao Group, in the president's office, Su Qu sat on the sofa unhappily, staring at Bao Bufan, who was working.

She has been in Jinling for three days, but Lu Yan seems to have forgotten her, except for the text message before coming, she has not made a single phone call.

"Little brother!" Su Quinoa cried out miserably.

Bao Bufan was uncomfortable stared at by her, got up and said: "Okay, I'm afraid of you, I'll go to his company and find him out for you, okay!"
