Chapter Seventeen How do you feel?

Su Yuanshan and the others were very lucky, and Deputy Director Zhou was in the office at this time.

Like all researchers who concentrate on scientific research, Zhou Boguang is not good at treating people. Compared with Jia Jibing's arrogance, Zhou Boguang has more serious old-school scholarly temperament.

After reading the introduction letter, Zhou Boguang did not make any comments, nor did he show any sign of contempt. He took out a piece of paper from the drawer and handed it to Tian Yaoming: "Can you fill it in within ten minutes? Fill it out and sign it, Wen Jie will take you to the scattering - do you know the price of the scattering?"

"I know, we're ready." Tian Yaoming smiled. If it were changed before, it would be difficult to get into a state-owned factory like Huajing, but because the project was launched in advance, it is now as poor as a ghost, and I wish someone would come to the scene every day.

But after seeing only one project order, Tian Yaoming smiled bitterly: "Professor Zhou, one is not enough, we have three chips."

Zhou Boguang was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the Electrical Science and Technology actually made three in one breath... But it is estimated that these chips were produced by several research teams of the Electrical Science and Technology, and they were put together to start production in the form of private enterprises. This is also a relatively new way of technology monetization. Zhou Boguang actually appreciates it very much. He always believed that technology is to be used, and technology that is not used is still false.

So he took out three more project orders and handed them to Tian Yaoming, picked up the teacup and asked casually: "What kind of chip are you?"

"The Chinese information encoding chip of the wireless pager, the Chinese decoding chip of the wireless pager and the central control chip."

"Puff..." Zhou Boguang sprayed tea into the tea cup with a mouthful of tea.

Su Yuanshan and Qin Weimin smiled at each other - this should be a normal manifestation.

It has been 8 years since the paging station entered China in 1983, but the paging station and pager are all foreign brands without exception.

Zhou Boguang quickly realized his disobedience. He stared at Tian Yaoming and said in a deep voice: "What do you mean is that your electronics department has completed the complete set of Chinese pagers in China?"

At this time, Qin Weimin interrupted and said, "Professor Zhou, it's not our electronics department, it's our Yuanxin."

"You Yuanxin?" Zhou Boguang picked up the letter of introduction: "The one who Associate Professor Su Xinghe has a stake?"

Qin Weimin nodded: "Yes, Professor Su is my supervisor. This is Professor Su's son, Su Yuanshan."

When I was introducing it just now, Chen Yujie only introduced Qin Weimin and Tian Yaoming, one master's degree and one doctoral degree, but he didn't introduce Su Yuanshan, who seemed to be a freshman in college at most.

Zhou Boguang took a deep breath.

As the deputy director who has been in charge of technology from the Semiconductor Research Institute, he certainly knows the difficulty of designing an IC chip. Especially this kind of codec IC has always been dominated by foreign high-tech companies based on their early start and strong technical strength. Now this private company has been created!

"Do you have independent intellectual property rights?"

Qin Weimin was a little proud: "Full independent intellectual property."

Zhou Boguang's eyes shrank again. As a technical background, he almost subconsciously thought that he was talking nonsense! But immediately he realized that he dared to use it for a leak, which meant that it had at least been argued and designed, and it could not be a joke! He was not the department of the God of Wealth, so why did they lie to him?

Could it be the design of foreign companies they bought at high prices? Do they have that much money? This is a Chinese paging product, a blank market product! Whoever is trying to design it and sell it to a domestic individual company?

Zhou Boguang's eyes froze, his eyes stopped at the boy who had been smiling and silent, facing a master's and doctoral degree and himself.

At this time, the boy's eyes also looked at him, and a ray of respect and calmness as if he was seeing an acquaintance.

...

Su Yuanshan knew that Zhou Boguang had ten thousand question marks in his mind. According to Lao Zhou's personality, if he didn't figure out how he and others were able to do it, he wouldn't even sleep tonight.

So Su Yuanshan smiled slightly and took out the hard drive from the briefcase.

"Hello, Professor Zhou, our chip design only took about two months. The biggest credit is the eca software developed by our Yuanxin, which has the strongest integrated circuit design and simulation capabilities on the market. Just yesterday, it passed the layout compatibility test of Jiangyin Factory."

"If you want, I can show you our chip design functions and simulation functions on the spot."

Su Yuanshan built a new project.

"Yuanxin EDA's operating habits are similar to cadence, but its functions and automation levels are much richer and stronger than cadence. Our simulation tools are unique in the world, involving more than ten pending algorithm patents."

While explaining, Su Yuanshan planned the modules at will, and at the same time, he easily put down the logic circuit.

"Because it is a modular and intelligent design, it requires high performance requirements for computers. Especially when simulation, if there are too many components, it may take a long time - but under Moore's law, the CPU speed will get faster and faster, and this is not a problem."

Su Yuanshan turned around and looked at Zhou Boguang with a shocked face, and thought for a while and said, "Professor Zhou, you have a simple requirement now, I'll demonstrate it to you."

Zhou Boguang licked his lips. He was in a very complicated mood now, and he could not think of any demands for a while. At this time, Chen Yujie, who was also shocked, suddenly woke up: "You design a card reading chip for the access control switch."

Su Yuanshan was stunned and then smiled: "Senior Brother Chen is not simple, what kind of Internet do you use?"

"Network? No network."

"Uh... I'll misunderstand it, okay, give me the requirements and parameters."

Chen Yujie immediately ran back to the office.

Su Yuanshan did not wait for him, but planned the functional module first.

If it is a card reader on the Internet, then he will not be able to "pretend". After all, that project involves network transmission, data storage, and exchange, which is more troublesome than making a pager. It takes less than a month to solve it. After all, he has a mature plan for pager.

But just a simple card reader, you only need to compare high-frequency signals.

As Chen Yujie took the requirements and parameters, and the functional modules were planned and arranged, Su Yuanshan began to compare the parameters and input instructions.

Two hours later, Su Yuanshan completed the input of the last instruction and generated the circuit at the same time. After simulating it and changing two bugs, Su Yuanshan sets the parameters and starts to simulate it.

"Small chips, simulation should be very fast."

As the pins light up, green parameters are also displayed. After ten minutes, they pass once and the simulation is completed.

Su Yuanshan didn't look at Chen Yujie. He was afraid that the hot air that Chen Yujie exhaled would spur on his face - this guy was standing on his right hand now, gasping for a while.

"Professor Zhou, what do you think of our products?"

Zhou Boguang had returned to calm, but his eyes were as bright as stars.

At the same level, what is the most important thing in the design of integrated circuits?

It's a tool.

Before EdA was born, the design chip was all done by hand drawing. Therefore, after the first 4004 appeared, the mcs-48 was reproduced in China by relying on hand drawings - Zhou Boguang was one of the participants.

At that time, everyone's design tools were the same, all paper, pen, and ruler.

When various EDA software appeared later, Intel, which has the right time, place, and people, quickly used the fast and convenient methods of EDA to launch new instructions one after another, designed new products, and also completed the patent barriers of x86.

It can be said that tools are the primary productivity in the field of chip design.

Now, the young man put a dragon-slaying sword in front of him. He asked him, how did he feel?
