Chapter 111: A New Generation of Processors

Therefore, TSMC's chips are the most stable, and under the same circumstances, even if it is overclocking performance or stability and other data, TSMC's chips are better than the chips produced by Sanxing Electronics!

For example, the Snapdragon 888 chip, which was miserably, uses the 5nm process technology of Sanxing Electronics.

As a result, there are serious problems of heat generation and frequency reduction, which is simply a big pit.

All the mobile phone manufacturers who used this mobile phone chip shouted cheating and then returned the goods, which can be described as a miserable paste, and also made Pingguo mobile phones profitable, so that their mobile phone market share increased significantly.

And the same experience is not only the paste, but even Pingguo Company was also pitted by Sanxing Electronics once.

Among them, Pingguo's A9 chip is an example, which uses 14nm in Sanxing, while TSMC uses the 16nm process technology of the backward generation.

But the actual result of the final chip was beyond everyone's expectations, using the 16nm self-process Pingguo A9 chip.

Its calorific value is lower than that of Sanxing's 14nm process, and its performance parameters and stability also surpass that of the 14nm Apple A9 chip.

And the power consumption is lower than 14nm, and the most important thing is that this uses Sanxing 14nm is the process process of A9 processor, which is unstable and frequently downgraded!

Therefore, Sanxing's chip manufacturing process technology is also nicknamed the world's top leakage process by the Internet melon eaters!

In this case, customers who naturally want to buy Pingguo crazy mobile phones must pick up the processor to buy crazy mobile phones.

So since then, that is, since 2015, Pingguo Company has resolutely abandoned Sanxing Electronics, and since then has chosen TSMC to produce his chips.

Upon hearing the news, the world was in an instant uproar.

Since then, this incident has made them realize that advanced process technology does not necessarily mean strong, and he may also be a cheater!

And this cheating incident is not a once, in later generations, the plaster that was pitted by Snapdragon 888 also gave up Sanxing, and even the world's largest graphics card manufacturer Yingwei also gave up Sanxing.

Because Sanxing's chip manufacturing process is too stretched and too cheating, in 2022, almost all mainstream technology manufacturers around the world have given up on Sanxing!

In the future, if Lin Xuan wants to make his chip factory stable, there will be no thunderstorms like Sanxing, where the process is not good.

Then Lin Xuan has to improve his process technology and chip stability, which is commonly known as accumulating experience.

If you want to accumulate experience to improve the yield rate of chips and even the stability of chips, there is no faster way to grow than chips with an annual output of hundreds of millions!

But now the result is wrong, at this time, Lianluke actually took this opportunity to dominate the Daxia mobile phone market, and at first glance, there is a trend of monopolizing the mobile phone chip market for a long time.

In this case, Lin Xuan's mobile phone chip has very little hope of rising.

Now many domestic mobile phone companies have adopted Lianqike's MTK chip platform, and those mobile phone companies have designed finished mobile phones to apply for listing!

In this case, Lin Xuan immediately designed the same one-stop solution now, and the MTK mobile phone chip platform was born.

But this seems to just give the market one more choice, will those domestic mobile phone manufacturers who have chosen the MTK chip platform choose themselves? Hard!

Even if Lin Xuan wanted to lower the price to sell, it seemed that he couldn't lower it, because the more chips he produced, the cheaper it was.

As for why this is the case, this is because in the chip production process, the more chips are produced, the chip factory will constantly improve it.

That is, the yield rate of the chip is continuously improved, and when the yield rate is improved, the price of the chip will naturally fall.

At this time, even if Lin Xuan designs the same one-stop integrated chip platform, because of the yield rate and film orders, the price of Lin Xuan's chip platform is definitely more expensive than Lianqike's chip!

Because Lin Xuan's number of chips is smaller than that of a small family, the chip foundry will naturally have less experience in the process of producing the chip.

And the amount is too small and it is not good to negotiate with the chip foundry, and in the end, Lianqiaoke's chips will be cheaper than Lin Xuan's chips!

Therefore, even if Lin Xuan wants to fight a price war, he can't win others, but people have more advantages when fighting a price war.

Because people have the 30 million level order of Po Island mobile phone, coupled with the order of domestic mobile phone, it will eventually form a strong and strong situation.

Because the more mobile phones purchase Lianqiaoke's chips, the yield rate increases.

Mediafa lacks a terrifying order in its hands, and with the capital to negotiate with chip foundries, in the end, Lianfa's mobile phone chips will only be cheaper!

The more attractive the cheap Lianqike chips are to those mobile phone manufacturers, the more they can't do without Lianqike chips.

This is a situation where the strong are always strong, Lin Xuan is facing the Lianjian Branch, which can almost be said to dominate the field of mobile phone chips in Daxia, and he seems to be completely unable to defeat the direct Lianjian Branch!

The price war is not dominant, and it does not seem appropriate to enter the high-end segment.

Even if it enters the high-end field for differentiated competition, the chip will inevitably increase the price, even if Lin Xuan sells high-end chips to the price of ordinary chips.

But it also seems that it can't stop the momentum of Lian Yu Ke dominating the world, in the face of this kind of picture of the strong Heng Qiang wanting to interrupt the Lian Ke at this time, Lin Xuan actually fell into distress for a while.

What should Hantang Technology do? Do you want to give up the dream of making the chip industry rise in Daxia?

If the Daxia chip industry wants to rise, or let a chip factory rise, there is no better fit than having a chip that manufactures hundreds of millions of chips every year.

But how difficult is it for a newly established chip factory to receive manufacturing orders for hundreds of millions of pieces per year?

If you want to achieve this goal, only by mastering the design and sales yourself, can the trinity finally achieve the goal of making Daxia chips rise!

But now that Lianqi Branch has the momentum of dominating the mobile phone market, how should Lin Xuan stop Lianqi Branch's dominance of the world? Lin Xuan fell into deep thought.

Suddenly, Lin Xuan raised his head as if he had thought of something!

"The only way to defeat magic is magic."

Lin Xuan slowly said a classic quote.

So, at this time, Lin Xuan had a plan in his heart, he wanted to use the former king routine of Lian Yu Ke to defeat Lian Yu Ke!

How did you defeat Lian Nuoke, does this need to be said? Naturally, it is the path of the king of cottages!

However, it is not so easy to defeat Lianqiaoke, and it is not something that can be solved if it can be solved.

Lin Xuan is ready to take three steps, first, first solve the problem of how to buy chips at low cost, that is, to solve the problem of yield rate!

How to solve the problem of yield rate, this naturally starts with chip production, how to solve the problem of yield rate of chip production, this naturally has to be found by Zhongxin International!

The current Zhongxin International is actually not weak, because at this time, Zhongxin International was established in April 2000 to August 4, 2004.

After 4 years of development, Zhongxin International has made rapid progress in terms of foundry quality and process technology.

Last year, at the end of 2003, Zhongxin International reached the 90nm process from the laboratory level.

In the middle of this year, it has successfully built a 90-nanometer chip production line, so it is already in trial production and has the ability to manufacture 90-nanometer chips on a small scale.

According to the future history, it will cooperate with Texas Instruments in October to eventually produce 90nm chips for Texas Instruments.

Although the 90-nanometer chip is simply rotten in the eyes of later generations, the chip will be looked down upon if it does not reach 32 nanometers.

But who would have known that the Wii home game console, which was launched in 2006 by the island nation of Ren Tiantang and sold a terrifying 116 million units in history, uses 90nm process technology for its chips!

Therefore, the 90nm process technology is not backward, which is already the third-rate level in the world.

After all, the world's most advanced process technology is only 45 nanometers in TSMC.

But the problem now is that although TSMC can mass-produce 45nm chips on a small scale, they also need to overcome the yield problem of chips like Zhongxin International.

There is still a long way to go before the mass production of 45nm chips, and according to history, they did not officially solve the problem of mass production of 45nm chips until 07!

At this time, when Intel, the absolute hegemon of computer processors, wanted to use chips with 65nm process technology, it was only in 2005, that is, the following year, that the chip 65nm chips were released!

Therefore, the current situation is that the first-class 45nm process process cannot be mass-produced due to yield problems.

The 65nm process technology is a truly advanced process, and although the 90nm process technology is the third rate in the world, it is actually at the second-rate level of market application.

Now Sanxing Electronics' process technology is at the 65nm level of the mainstream of the market, and the Hanfeng generation chip also uses 65nm process technology!

Theoretically speaking, at this time, Zhongxin International seems to be unable to produce Hanfeng generation chips for Lin Xuan, but who said that Lin Xuan must produce Hanfeng generation chips?!

The current Hanfeng generation chip is actually still a bit high-end, and the high-end makes the current Hantang Glory generation mobile phone.

In fact, there are many functions that cannot be used at all, resulting in a huge waste of performance and useless loss of standby!

Among them, the most serious loss is the camera function, the Hantang Glory generation does not have a camera at all, but the chip doesn't care whether you have a camera or not, he will consume a certain amount of power!

In this case, Lin Xuan can completely design the chip of the monkey board, such as removing the camera function.

Then add the transistors saved by removing the camera to other parts, such as adding to the computing core, so as to make the phone smoother and so on.

Of course, with Zhongxin International's 90nm process, the removed camera will definitely be removed forever.

There will be no more transistors into the computing core, because the 90nm process will certainly not hold as many transistors as 65nm!

If you want to achieve the high performance of the Han generation, you can only give up the unused function of the camera, and in addition, you can also carry out further castration!
