Chapter 200: Breakthrough

"Impossible, absolutely impossible? It's not scientific at all! ”

Gordon Moore held the X32115 in his hand in disbelief, which had been polished to reveal the wafer inside.

Just under the electron microscope, Moore clearly saw that the design of 32115 was very different from any mainstream chip from the ground up.

Born in 1929, Gordon Moore is best known for what he calls "Moore's Law," which states that chip performance doubles every 18 months while the price remains the same.

Moore, now 87, couldn't believe that he was in his 20s when Bell Labs built transistors in the '50s, and he had seen computers evolve from relays, vacuum tubes, transistors to integrated circuits.

It can be said that he knows everything about human computers from birth to prosperity, and knows the development laws of chips well.

But it was precisely because of this that he understood what the X32115 in his hand represented, this ghost thing should not appear on the earth!

"Pat, Pat!"

Gordon Moore called in Pat Kissinger, who would become Intel's CEO in the future.

"Pat, are you really going to tell me that this was removed from a car, not a chip that the military pried off an alien spacecraft?

You know, unless something happens that the Temporal Confusion Alliance is still alive, how can such a mature ternary chip appear? Take a look at these package areas...... This will take at least 5 to 10 years to mature. ”

Pat: "However, it is not only made by humans, but also produced in China, this piece in your hand was produced by Huaxin International in the 50th week of 2015, and they marked this information on the package!" (Damn)"

Huaguo? That mysterious country?

Old Moore thought of the former alliance between Huaguo and the Alliance, could it be that after the disintegration of the Alliance, these technologies took root in Huaguo, were promoted by secret laboratories little by little, and now suddenly appeared to fight with the binary system?

What a mess this is!

Pat: "Mr. Moore, maybe what we need to do is not to look for the technical roots, but to understand what the ternary system looks like, and in a way, this is an opportunity for us and even for all of humanity. ”

Gordon Moore also came back to his senses at this time, and the nature of the business elite made him immediately realize the significance of the emergence of ternary technology in China.

"Yes, we need to hold a patent for ternary technology, whether it works or not."

……

As Xin'an continues to sell customized car machines, more and more people have discovered the secret of X321/322 series chips.

A long time ago, when the XC4 was released, it caused a huge sensation in the field of artificial intelligence, especially the XW151 car machine actually used Huaguo's own chips, which is even more puzzling.

However, many people relaxed their vigilance after discovering that the X32115 chip process was only partially 28nm, believing that the root of XC4's intelligence lies in the advanced algorithm rather than the strength of the chip.

They had tried to find some clues from public papers, but there were no clues for more than half a year.

As a well-known aerospace company, Xinyuan of course also has to issue papers and apply for patents, but any technology that is beyond the times or different scientific and technological routes, Xinyuan Company will keep it strictly confidential.

And with the mastery of more and more technology, more and more advanced, many technologies have not applied for patents, only in Xinyuan's internal ternary company network to establish a simple communication website, engineers can communicate with each other.

There is no information about everything about the ternary system from the outside world.

But paper can't hold the fire after all, the three domestic semiconductor manufacturers have made so many chips, and the news that Xinyuan has mastered the mature ternary computer system has naturally begun to circulate.

When this information is transmitted abroad, Intel, AMD, Nvidia and other manufacturers do not believe it in the first place, how is it possible?

An aerospace company, switching to making chips? Or is the ternary system, is the X86 architecture so easy to subvert?

This arrogance was not until they began to analyze the X321 series chips as things fermented, and the first to react was Nvidia, because artificial intelligence AI deep learning has always been related to GPUs.

As a result, when the chip was polished, Lao Huang found that something was wrong, and after careful confirmation, it was really a ternary architecture!

It was also at this time that the world's patent library gradually began to increase the patents of ternary technology, including basic IC design, functional architecture, software and hardware support, etc., and the patent holder was Xinyuan Company.

So...... Are the rumors true?

Yes, definitely.

In the background of the website of the National Patent Office, switch to the computer and chip section, and every time you refresh it, heavyweight patents appear.

Behind this is the result of the busyness of Xinyuan and many surrounding patent offices.

Lin Ju had already been prepared, so when Xinyuan's engineers came to register patents, everyone was a thick pile, which kept the salesmen of the patent offices busy.

Regarding the lowest and most basic design part of the ternary chip, a total of more than 1,900 patents have been applied, although it is not a lot, but it is enough to firmly grasp the hegemony of the ternary chip.

At the same time, the reviewed and revised papers have also begun to be sent to the world's well-known professional journals, and Xinyuan gradually discloses more content of the ternary system.

ACM, the International Association for Computing Machinery, was established in 1947 after the world's first computer, ENIAC, and is the absolute authority in the field of computer technology.

On July 8, they received more than 20 papers in one day, all with the same address, but with different signatures.

At first, the editor-in-chief of Victor thought that someone was playing a prank and deliberately flooding, but when he saw that the unit was Xinyuan Aerospace Power, he decided to stay and take a look, and then he was out of control.

Because these more than 20 papers are a summary of the mature ternary system, the characteristics of the explanation, the purpose is to let people have an accurate understanding of the ternary system, although the professional content is not too much, but it is a completely new field, which makes people shine.

The editor-in-chief of Victor spent a whole day reading more than 20 papers, and these papers from the microelectronics department of Xinyuan Aerospace Power opened the door to ternary technology and depicted a future beyond binary, which was much more interesting than 01.

You know, some people in the industry have already believed that binary is coming to an end, and the next generation of human computers should be quantum computers, and traditional computers should be eliminated.

There are many types of quantum computers, and according to these papers, ternary computers have the potential to realize quantum computing?!

Victor forwarded the papers to the other editors as quickly as possible, and wrote a very long reply to the authors of the papers, inviting them to learn to explore further, and awarding the more than 20 papers with the highest specifications.

And he also has a feeling that these papers are just the tip of the iceberg, and Xinyuan may have made a deep breakthrough in the ternary.
