At this time, the entire office was very nervous.
Because everyone knows very well that if the Pangu 1 chip can drive computers, then this means that Xia Guo's technology company has complete capabilities to produce computer chips.
This is a landmark event, and Shenship's dependence on American chips will be greatly reduced.
Even if Shenship still needs to purchase Intel or AMD chips, its voice will be greatly increased.
In fact, as a person of two generations, Chen Xiao's definition of Western capital and technology companies is - cheap.
The stronger you are, the more they respect you.
The weaker you are and the more you beg them, the less likely you are to get what you want.
Therefore, if Xiaguo Technology Company can really develop its own computer chips, it will definitely be able to break the Western monopoly and have the advantage of having a say in negotiations.
The technician quickly connected the computer.
The technician looked at Chen Xiao, Yang Fei and others. After Chen Xiao's confirmation, the technician lit up the power button.
Only a whine was heard, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.
The CPU fan starts spinning, which proves that the computer is lit up all at once.
This is step 1 to success.
The Onda motherboard logo is displayed on the monitor.
The next step is to reinstall the Firefox OS system on the computer.
After about 10 minutes, the Yinghuo system was installed.
Judging from the content displayed on the monitor, there is no difference between the display content of the Pangu 1 CPU and the CPU of Intel or AMD.
This at least proves that the chips designed by Changtian Technology are reliable. After Xia Xin International gets the drawings, it can indeed produce usable chips.
But when it is turned on and turned on, the performance of the Pangu 1 CPU cannot be proven.
Technicians also need to use professional means and software to test the comprehensive performance of the CPU.
The physical performance of the CPU is already there. The main frequency can reach 3.0Ghz, the front-side bus can reach 533Mhz, the FSB can reach 133Mhz, and the secondary cache can reach 512kb.
But this is just some data on paper. Whether a computer is powerful or not, it is not enough to just look at the paper data of the CPU.
You must also look at the comprehensive display of the CPU and other hardware combinations.
Just like a team, even if you introduce Messi, there is no way to determine the overall strength of your team. It must be run-in and produce a "chemical reaction."
Chen Xiao patiently waited for everyone's test. He sat on the sofa and drank tea. Song Yi also took the initiative to sit over and change the tea for Chen Xiao.
Although Song Yi can be regarded as the company's management, she will habitually play the role of assistant whenever she is in Chen Xiao's office.
Changtian Technology has specially developed computer hardware testing software. One is to run scores like later generations, and the other is to make the computer CPU work violently to test its extreme performance.
The computer CPU fan is spinning crazily, which proves that it is currently overloaded with work.
Many test components are also installed on the computer motherboard.
Soon, technicians discovered a problem.
Because Xiaxin International uses 130nm technology to produce chips, its power consumption is indeed much greater than that of Intel and AMD.
Currently, the CPU is equipped with an ordinary cooling fan. From this point of view, the structure of this fan is not very ideal.
Although the current temperature of the CPU remains at around 60 degrees, this is not the optimal temperature for the CPU to work.
Therefore, the CPU cooling system still needs to be optimized.
In addition, if this CPU is changed to a low-power notebook CPU, that will also be a big problem.
In addition to heat dissipation, the most important issue is power consumption. Some small-capacity batteries are basically unable to meet the needs of this kind of CPU.
If used on a laptop, a large-capacity, high-energy-density battery must be used.
In terms of batteries, Changtian Technology should be able to handle it.
About an hour later, all the data on the overall performance of the chip came out.
The performance of the Pangu 1 chip can reach about 70% of the current commercial Intel Pentium 4 processor.
This data is still within everyone's expectations, and it also gives everyone some surprises.
Have you ever thought that the chips designed and produced by Xia Guoren can actually reach 70% of the performance of Intel's current best commercial chips?
Zhang Jing and Jiang Zhou knew the performance of the chip in advance, but they are still very satisfied with the data obtained through Changtian Technology's comprehensive testing.
Wang Yu and others were very sorry.
Because according to Changtian Technology, especially Mr. Chen’s current level, he is fully capable of designing a 65-nanometer chip.
But Xiaxin International simply does not have this kind of production capacity.
Everyone's eyes were on Chen Xiao, and they thought Chen Xiao would at least be satisfied with the Pangu 1 chip.
But it's a pity that they didn't see a smile on Chen Xiao's face.
The birth of Pangu 1 has indeed solved the problem of mid-range and low-end chips in the Shenship.
But in the high-end field, there is still a huge gap with Intel.
Chen Xiao was actually thinking about a question.
It is true that Xiaxin International’s technology currently cannot produce more advanced chips.
But it is entirely possible to upgrade some components of the chip.
For example, modify the second-level cache, which has the greatest impact on the chip's computing speed and read and write speed.
Is it possible to combine the chip with the carbon crystal structure?
Change the L2 cache structure to carbon crystal storage.
This can make up for some performance deficiencies of the Pangu 1 chip.
Chen Xiao told Zhang Jing and Jiang Zhou: "Although production technology has limited the performance of the chip, I think there are still some areas for improvement in the Pangu 1 chip."
Chen Xiao then turned to Yang Fei, Wang Yu and Wang Xiang to tell his thoughts.
Wang Yu used to work in the Carbon Crystal Laboratory.
As soon as he heard some of Chen Xiao's ideas, he felt that they were completely achievable.
"What Mr. Chen said makes sense! Although our chip's recording speed cannot keep up with Intel's most advanced chips, we can definitely find ways to improve the chip's reading and writing speed."
Chen Xiao Thinker If you can increase the speed and capacity of the second-level cache.
So even if the calculation speed of the chip is slower, the speed of getting data can be faster.
This can make up for the chip's lack of overall speed.
But how much can it specifically increase the computing speed of the chip?
Chen Xiao is not very clear yet and still needs to conduct experiments.
And Chen Xiao's heart moved.
The carbon crystal structure has many advantages over the traditional silicon grain structure.
So use carbon-based structures as raw materials to produce chips?
Chen Xiao had a strong premonition.
Assuming that the level of integrated circuit design reaches level 20, the raw materials for producing chips may really be carbon crystal structures.
Zhang Jing and his team will stay in Jiangzhou. They will fully cooperate with Changtian Technology to optimize the Pangu No. 1 chip.
