Chapter 294: The Han and Tang Processors that amazed the world
"Big and Small Core Architecture."
The reporter who heard Lin Xuan's words immediately looked at Lin Xuan in surprise, I don't know what kind of architecture the so-called large and small nuclear architecture is?
They know the dual-core architecture, after all, Intel's "glue dual-core" name is the world's leading one.
But what kind of architecture is this so-called large and small core architecture, and is there anything magical about it?
In this way, the curious reporters focused their eyes on Lin Xuan, looked at Lin Xuan curiously, and waited for Lin Xuan's answer.
"The large and small core architecture is a combination of a large core that is responsible for processing data and a small core that is responsible for translating and transporting data.
Among them, the big core is what we often call the CPU, and this CPU uses the Hantang computer instruction set independently developed by our Hantang Technology.
Because we have abandoned the burden of the past, we have been running for ultra-high efficiency and ultra-high performance from the beginning of the design.
Therefore, the performance of our large-core processor is very terrifying, and it can be said that the performance is far beyond what you imagined, and it is not a problem at all with the same process! ”
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, the reporters at the scene nodded one after another.
The reporters on the scene also know how powerful the processor is after abandoning the burden of past history.
Because Hantang Technology has proven itself through mobile phone processors!
After all, when Hantang Technology developed mobile phone processors, it abandoned all the burdens of past history and went directly to ultra-high efficiency and ultra-high performance design.
Through the purpose of this design and development, in the end, Hantang mobile phone processors were born and successfully beat all mobile phone processors in the world, and other companies are far from being able to compare with them.
After all, there was a huge gap between the two from the very beginning of the design, even with a new architecture that they thought was superb.
But in fact, after manufacturing, the performance of their mobile phone processor still cannot reach the performance of Hantang Technology's mobile phone processor.
Under the same process, their processors can often only reach 3 percent of Hantang Technology, and the strongest of them can only reach 6 percent of Hantang Technology's mobile phone processors.
That's where it is important to build an ultra-high-performance instruction set from scratch without the burden of the past!
But now Lin Xuan is playing the same routine, and he has also developed from scratch with ultra-high performance and ultra-high efficiency, plus there is no historical burden in the past.
It is conceivable that in the case of the same process, the computing performance of the Hantang processor must easily crush the CPU processors of Intel and .d.
After all, the processors of both companies have too many historical burdens, and the x86 instruction set is more than 40 years old so far.
It can be said that in order to support the software and games of the past, the historical burden of the x86 system has been extremely huge.
There are too many transistors that are used for things that don't know what to do, and are not fully used on the edge of the knife.
So in this case, there is no need to worry about the processor performance of Hantang Technology, and there is no need to question it at all.
With Hantang Technology's experience in the development of mobile phone processors, Hantang Technology's CPU processors will definitely be able to easily crush Intel and .D CPU processors!
Even due to the huge burden of the x86 system in the past, it is entirely possible to achieve the performance of several Intels and .d processors!
But at this time, the reporter from the Bay Island reluctantly asked:
"Mr. Lin, although your processor was developed from scratch for ultra-high performance and ultra-high efficiency because of the burden of abandoning the historical burden.
As you can imagine, the computing performance of the CPU processor developed by your company must be able to easily crush Intel's processor.
But this also means that your CPU processor can't support many software in the x86 system!
So this act of abandoning the burden of the past is not a good act, and it does not solve the problem I just mentioned. ”
Hearing the words of the Bay Island reporter, Lin Xuan shook his head with a smile, then took his eyes off the Bay Island reporter, looked at the other reporters and said with a smile:
"I've just introduced the big core, so let's talk about the small core I just talked about translating and transporting data."
"A little nucleus of translating transit data?"
At this time, I heard Lin Xuan reiterate the role of this small nucleus again.
Several of the reporters at the scene seemed to have thoughtful glances in their eyes, and then they all looked surprised!
"That's right, it's the little nucleus responsible for translating the transfer data!"
Listening to those surprised voices, Lin Xuan nodded with a smile, and then slowly spoke:
"As we all know, our Hantang Technology spent $100 million some time ago to acquire the X86 instruction set patent authorization held by VIA (Weisheng Electronics), and also obtained the relevant processor patents held by Weisheng Electronics."
Hearing Lin Xuan talk about this matter, the reporters at the scene nodded lightly to indicate that they knew about this matter.
At the beginning, Hantang Technology's acquisition of Weisheng Electronics' x86 instruction set license and related processor patents made many people excited.
When this news report came out, countless people in Daxia shouted in the streets and alleys and on the Internet that domestic CPUs should rise.
But the result was that shortly after that day, Bill Geecon said something that instantly stopped the euphoria, like a duck pinched by the neck and never talked about it again.
And after that, experts led by Professor He accused Lin Xuan of spending $100 million to acquire the x86 instruction set as a brain-dead act......
Therefore, the reporters at this time also remembered the events that happened at the beginning, and when they heard Lin Xuan talk about the original incident, they naturally nodded lightly.
"There were a lot of so-called experts in the TV media or on the Internet who accused us of spending $100 million to license the x86 instruction set as a waste of money.
But I want to tell them now that the $100 million spent was not wasted, but played a huge role in the development of our computer processors.
The role is the small nucleus I just mentioned, this small He He is a small nucleus responsible for translating and transporting data, how to translate it?
You can think of it as a translation hub when we run x86 software or games.
Then we can use this x86 small core translation relay to make software and games that are not x86 instruction sets also run, and its main working principle is ......"
Hundreds of reporters at the scene listened to Lin Xuan's explanation of the principle of the processor, and their eyes showed expressions that seemed to understand or not.
They actually don't understand the technical principles and implementation methods explained by Lin Xuan.
But through Lin Xuan's words, they knew that the small core in this Hantang processor could allow the processor of Hantang Technology to directly run the software of the x86 system!
They didn't understand and didn't need to understand what the technical principle and implementation principle were, but when they understood the role of the small nucleus, the reporters on the scene all showed excited expressions.
Because this means that Hantang Technology has not given up the games and software that support the Wei soft system!
Through their x86 small core, Hantang Technology supports the x86 instruction set at the hardware level, and the alternative allows the games and software of the Weisoft system to use this processor to play games!
In this way, it invisibly broke the situation that Hantang Technology could never use the Weisoft system and game software ecology!
"It's amazing!"
A young reporter looked at Lin Xuan with admiration on his face, but he didn't expect Lin Xuan to think of developing such a magical processor.
Through the processor architecture of large and small cores, it is equivalent to the fact that this processor can use the software of the Hantang computer system, and can also use the software and games of the Weisoft system.
I have to say that this large and small core processor architecture gives Hantang Technology's processor a very broad space.
But in the midst of admiration and emotion, a voice that was not so harmonious suddenly sounded.
So people looked there, and the source of the voice was the reporter from Bay Island:
"Mr. Lin Xuan, although the large and small core processor architecture you proposed can be called very exquisite, that is, it can support the Hantang computer operating system at the same time.
It can also support the x86 system through the small core translation relay, so as to use the software and games on the Wei soft operating system.
But this is actually some kind of invisible flaw, after all, your processor is not the original processor, but through the translation of the small core.
However, because the Visoft system is not supported, the software and games of the Visoft system may not recognize your processor at that time.
In this case, how should your processor use the software and games of the Wei Soft system? This is a big problem.
So isn't this size architecture a little inappropriate, after all, there is an extra x86 small core, which can be regarded as a certain burden on the back of the CPU of Hantang Technology.
In this way, it is better to directly abandon this burden and use all the transistors in these burdens for computing, so as to make the performance of the large core more powerful. ”
Seeing this reporter who repeatedly put forward various opinions and wanted to find fault, Lin Xuan was not angry, because he also needed a person to set off the strength of his skills.
If you just ask him to say how strong his skills are, then people may not understand it, but if there is a praising to sing against him.
In the process of his solution, the solution he gives will let people know how strong his technology is.
Therefore, for the Bay Island reporter who repeatedly raised objections, Lin Xuan did not directly invite the other party out, but thought about it for a while and slowly expressed his opinion.
"Regarding the question you raised, I can tell you clearly, we will not expect the Weisoft system to support our processors, and we will always adhere to the strategy of developing a domestic operating system."
"This ......"
Hearing Lin Xuan's words, the reporters at the scene showed puzzled expressions, what does Lin Xuan mean by this?
Since Lin Xuan insists on the domestic operating system unwaveringly, why should there be an x86 small core?
The Weisoft system doesn't support you, even if you can use the software and games of the x86 system at the hardware level, this form of translation and alternative implementation, can other software and games recognize your processor?
There was a lot of confusion and confusion in the hearts of the reporters at the scene.
