Chapter 106: The Semiconductor Earthquake
The other three semiconductor experts were also amazed by the performance of the No. 0 chip.
"Mr. Mark! What is the computing speed you are testing? My piece is 21 trillion times per second. Taiji Electric semiconductor expert said.
Mark, a semiconductor engineer at Texas Instruments, replied with admiration: "I'm 21 trillion times per second." ”
You must know that the computing speed of the 10nm Qualcomm Snapdragon 845, which just broke out this year, is only 2.4 trillion operations per second, and the imperfectly designed No. 0 chip has soared the computing speed to 21 trillion operations per second.
"It's a bit beyond imagination! This performance is more than 13 billion transistors! Huaxin International's semiconductor expert said suspiciously.
After all, there are some information about chips on the chip display shelf.
Mark and Taiji's experts are also thinking about this question.
"What? Do you have a problem over there?" Intel's Dr. Rudolph looked at the three people with puzzled expressions and quickly asked.
"It's just that the number of transistors in this chip doesn't match the computing speed." Interrupted by his thoughts, Mark replied, and then he added:
"The transistors of this chip are 13 billion, and the speed of operations is 21 trillion times per second."
After thinking for a while, Sanxin's semiconductor expert suddenly said:
"Could it be because of the uniformity of the transistors?"
"Hmmm......"
"This is very likely!" Dr. Rudolph nodded.
"Guys, it's not time for us to care about this, we should tell everyone about 5nm." Huaxin International's semiconductor experts pointed to everyone in the audience who was looking forward to it.
"That's right!"
"That's right!"
Soon, after a period of communication, the five decided to state the facts on behalf of the five because of Sanxin's semiconductor experts.
Sanxin's semiconductor expert took the microphone from the staff.
"Everyone! I, along with four other colleagues, have confirmed that the chips of Galaxy Technology reach 5nm! ”
There was an uproar at the scene.
"How is that possible? Is there really such a thing as atomic manipulation?" Andrew of ASML exclaimed in disbelief.
The "......" Intel representative immediately could not accept this fact.
Li Fuzhen and Cui Feng looked at each other, and their eyes were full of shock, fear, and disbelief.
And Mr. Ren and others, who have long known about the 5-nanometer technology of Galaxy Technology, are calm.
"It seems! Semiconductors are adding another heavyweight. Zhang Haijun shook his head and smiled bitterly.
Huaxin International's feelings for Galaxy Technology's completion of 5nm chip technology are extremely complicated, and envy and jealousy are indispensable.
Shin-Etsu and LG Chem, on the other hand, are dejected, and in the face of atomic manipulation technology, their silicon wafers are no wonder they have no resistance, and the two are not opponents of the same magnitude at all.
……
Inside the Beiping Elder's House.
The Great Elder was a little excited, semiconductors have always been a heart problem of Dongtang, even if it is Huaxin International and Hua Hong Semiconductor, in fact, they are not pure domestic enterprises.
The emergence of Galaxy Technology directly filled the vacant field of Dongtang Semiconductor and completed the corner overtaking of chip manufacturing.
"Raise the level of Galaxy Technology to the highest level, no matter who dares to touch Galaxy Technology, then it will not die!" The Great Elder said in a deep and categorical voice.
"That's right!" The second elder also clenched his fists.
Several other elders also knew that from this moment on, the importance of Galaxy Technology to Dongtang could already be compared to that of mushroom eggs.
"For Huang Haojie and the scientific researchers of Galaxy Technology, we must strengthen protection." One of the elders in charge of security proposed.
The Great Elder nodded: "Not only Huang Haojie and the scientific researchers of Galaxy Technology, but also their families are also included in the key protection. ”
……
Across the ocean.
Old Morgan's brows furrowed, and he couldn't help but press his temples.
"Or send someone! Well! Rockefeller made a gesture of wiping his neck.
Dupont, who was expressionless on the side, said lightly: "Who to send?" You can't even bring a gun into that place. ”
After all, the Eastern Tang Dynasty is known as a forbidden place for mercenaries, and many mercenaries and killers generally avoid the tasks of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
Of course, money can make ghosts grind, and if they offer a reward of billions of dollars, there must be guys who want money and don't want to die, and go to the Eastern Tang Dynasty to take risks.
"It's useless to send killers, believe it or not, at least one division is stationed around Galaxy Technology now." Old Morgan retorted gloomily.
"And what do you want?" Rockefeller asked unceremoniously.
"Buying the scientific researchers of Galaxy Technology, since we can't stop their progress, then we must also obtain the same technology, and we can't let the Dongtang people dominate." Old Morgan said, knocking on the handle of his chair.
"Hmmm! Morgan Sr. was right! I don't believe that in the face of money, all people are red steel. Dupont squinted and sneered.
"Falk squid! If I had pushed the rabbit with the woolly bear back then, there wouldn't be so many things today! Rockefeller slapped the table viciously.
……
Sydney's headquarters.
Cook touched his chin and thought about what impact the rise of Galaxy Technology in semiconductors would have on Sydney.
After thinking about it, Cook didn't feel that it had a big impact, after all, Sydney and Huawei are similar, that is, they have chip design capabilities, but they don't have chip manufacturing capabilities, and they are all looking for foundries to manufacture chips.
Galaxy Technology does not have mobile terminal products, and Sydney can rest assured for the time being.
But Intel and Texas Instruments: They are not in a good mood at this moment.
In particular, in the transmission screen just now, there is an electron microscope picture, and they can clearly see the transistor circuit in the 5 nanometer range.
The neat transistor circuit makes all semiconductor practitioners who are watching live broadcasts or broadcasts feel incredible.
After all, the lithography machine and etching machine, the transistor circuit produced by the machine, it is impossible to be so neat, like Sanxin's forced 10-nanometer chip before, the transistor circuit appears very crooked under the electron microscope.
This is also the reason why Sanxin's 10nm can't even do Intel's 14nm, that is, the process is immature and the result of forced hard work.
They even doubt that Galaxy Technology can directly upgrade the chip manufacturing process to 1 nanometer, after all, their atomic manipulation technology can theoretically complete atomic-level processing.
……
"Ladies and gentlemen! Our Galaxy Technology's chip manufacturing technology is beyond doubt. ”
Huang Haojie smiled and stood on the stage again.
"We have completed the construction of the first carbon nanochip production line, which can produce 20 million chips per year, and before March next year, Galaxy Semiconductor will build ten such production lines, and initially complete the plan of producing 200 million chips per year."
Hearing Huang Haojie's bold words, everyone's faces were different, with excitement, fear, hostility, and envy.
And representatives like Intel and ASML also had gloomy faces at this time.
ASML's representative has a bad face because Galaxy Technology does not need a lithography machine to complete the manufacture of 5nm chips, which undoubtedly makes ASML's monopoly position fatally threatened.
The face of Intel's representative is ugly, because the rise of Galaxy Technology may seriously threaten the semiconductor status of Mi Lijia.
also heard that Huang Haojie was going to complete an annual output of 200 million chips, and chip foundries such as Taiji Electric, Sanxin, and GF also shouted wolf.
A terrible opponent is coming.
