Chapter 537: The performance of outdated products will also blow you away!
In mid-July, the weather in Jiangzhou was quite hot.
Jiangzhou People's Hospital, due to the expansion of the hospital, all the old sycamore trees that were more than ten years old were cut down.
The asphalt pavement was burned by the sun, and the patients' eyes were dull as they walked inside the hospital.
The hospital is actually a place that no one wants to come to, but it is the place with the most people.
Here you may really be able to see the true meaning of life, those people who are desperate for survival.
Jiang Zhou is undoubtedly a lucky person.
He got a new lease of life in the hospital.
After the combined colony surgery, Jiang Zhou was able to get out of bed and walk after two days of recovery.
After remaining in the hospital for observation for about three days, Jiang Zhou can go home and rest.
He was really grateful.
Cancer equals death, which is the law in this era.
Especially for lung cancer, it's basically a death sentence and you're just waiting to be shot.
But in Jiangzhou, with the help of Changtian Technology, Jiang Zhou miraculously removed his lungs that were riddled with holes and regained a new lease of life.
After evaluation by respiratory experts and oncologists, as long as Jiang Zhou can improve his immunity again.
Then it is very likely that the cancer cells will completely disappear from the body and will not suddenly appear again.
This lucky new life was brought to Jiang Zhou by Changtian Technology.
As a grateful person, Jiang Zhou is very aware of the weight of this gift of reconstruction in his heart.
Jiang Zhou, who has just recovered, is most concerned about what the results will be after Changtian Technology improves the chip?
Changtian Technology Headquarters, Chen Xiao, Zhang Jing, Wang Xiang, and Wu Jun are in the conference room.
After Chen Xiao's design, the Pangu 2 chip produced by Yanjiang Semiconductor Company (cooperated by Changtian Technology Tianjin Laboratory and Xiaxin International) was born.
The Pangu 2 chip uses dual-core technology.
It should be the only commercial-grade chip in the world that uses dual-core technology.
The parameters of a single chip are fixed.
The main frequency can reach 3.0Ghz, the front-side bus can reach 533Mhz, and the external frequency can reach 133Mhz.
Since the chip needs to be improved, complete changes must be made.
Therefore, Changtian Technology’s Carbon Crystal Laboratory changed the materials of the first-level cache and the second-level cache at the same time.
Both the first-level cache and the second-level cache use carbon crystal particles.
Among them, the first-level instruction cache is limited by volume and technology. Changtian Technology uses ultra-small carbon crystal particles to achieve 512KB.
The level 1 data cache is also 512KB.
This approach can maximize the computing speed of the chip without being hindered by data reading and storage.
The L2 cache of Changtian Technology Taijin Laboratory is relatively powerful. Because it adopts a dual-core design and requires a "reservoir", the L2 cache reaches 12 MB, and the storage speed is dozens of times higher than before.
The two cores share a cache pool and are separated by barriers in the cache pool.
In this way, the two chips can work at the same time and maximize the functions of the chips.
It can also optimize the performance of the computer to ensure that the computer responds as quickly as possible when performing multi-tasking without any lagging.
Changtian Technology's technicians once again installed the chip on a matching motherboard and matched it with other mainstream hardware configurations currently on the market.
For example, 2G carbon crystal memory, 120g carbon crystal hard drive, etc. are used.
The next step is to boot up and install the system for testing.
Yang Fei's people had shortness of breath, and some were afraid to look at the test results.
Because they know it very well.
If this dual-core chip is successfully developed, then even if Xiaxin International's current chip manufacturing process lags far behind Intel, AMD, and even some semiconductor companies such as Samsung and Toyo.
However, through the mutual use of two backward chips, coupled with the carbon crystal cache bonus of Changtian Technology, the system was finally used for optimization.
In terms of real comprehensive performance, such a chip does not lag behind Intel's most advanced Pentium 4 processor.
Clear startup sound and the sound of the CPU fan spinning.
In order to ensure the heat dissipation of high-power CPUs, technicians have also improved the heat dissipation mode of the CPU.
The contact surface between the copper core and the chip is increased, and the fan speed and fan blade area are also increased.
Next is the classic boot screen of Firefly OS.
4 seconds!
To everyone's surprise, the computer entered desktop mode after only 4 seconds of use.
The system assistant Xiaoying appeared on the desktop very cutely and said hello to the owner in text.
Seeing this scene, Yang Fei and Zhang Jing breathed a sigh of relief.
Technicians immediately started performance testing.
The most important thing about testing the chip this time is to test the overall performance of the chip.
In addition to using special testing software, technicians will also run conventional software such as design games and office software.
Data is cold. Only through personal use and experience can you know whether the computer's performance meets the designer's requirements.
Chen Xiao drank tea quietly.
He is full of confidence in Changtian Technology's chip improvement this time.
As long as desktop chips can be successfully produced, will mobile phone chips be far behind?
Indeed, in the domestic communications market, all high-end mobile phones are occupied by brands such as Nokia and Motorola.
But Chen Xiao believes that it won’t be long before Xia people can make their own smartphones.
Desktop chips are just step 1.
Zhang Jing and others were a little restless.
In fact, to be precise, this is the first time Xiaxin International has produced chips for computers.
Zhang Jing was very much looking forward to it.
Because he has always been grudged about Tiji Dian setting a trap for him behind his back.
Xiaxin International has been established for several years, but every time there is an industry summit or when Zhang Jing returns to the Wanwan area to do business for the New Year, etc.
will be subject to all kinds of rumors.
Among them, the biggest attack on Zhang Jing was within the Tibetan Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd., including in the chip and semiconductor industry. Many people firmly believe that the reason why Zhang Jing resigned from the Tibetan Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. was because he took the Tibetan Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd. team with him.
He brought his skills to the Xia Kingdom to make a fortune.
Everyone believes that relying on Zhang Jing’s current team and his personal abilities, even if he plagiarizes Tibetan Semiconductor Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.’s technology, there is no way to produce commercially viable chips in Xia, let alone surpassing Tibetan Semiconductor Manufacturing Co., Ltd.
Such insults and ferocious attacks made Zhang Jing eager to prove that he was right to leave TiMC.
Even if he leaves TiMC and does not acquire any technology, Zhang Jing can rely on his own abilities and team efforts to produce Xia Guoren's own chips.
Wu Jun couldn't sit still on the sofa. He stood up and paced back and forth in the conference room.
The pressure on Shenchuan during this period was also very high.
Indeed, by cooperating with SoftBank in production, Shenzhou has obtained Intel's chips, and its products can also be sold overseas.
But Intel seems to be deliberately disgusting Shenship. The chips it gives to Shenship will definitely not have any high-end products.
And the price is several times what Intel sells to Lianxiang, Dell and other brands.
This invisibly increases the cost of the divine ship.
However, Shenship cannot express this cost on the consumer side and retail side.
Because Shenzhou is known for its cost-effectiveness, if the cost is increased aimlessly, it may not be accepted by consumers, but this will also be very detrimental to the image of Shenzhou as a whole.
"Mr. Chen, the test results are out!"
Yang Fei came out and shouted excitedly.
Seeing Yang Fei's expression, Chen Xiao knew it must be a success.
Yang Fei handed a stack of data to Chen Xiao and explained to everyone: "Our Pangu 2 chip uses a dual-core chip and shares a second-level cache pool."
"This ensures that the chips can both perform their own duties and share data, and the cache and chips made of carbon crystal memory particles can output and call data very quickly when paired with real chips."
"We have just passed the test. If we don't emphasize the extreme operating frequency of the CPU, we just look at the comprehensive usage capabilities brought by the CPU in the entire computer system -"
"The comprehensive performance of our Pangu 2 CPU is about twice that of the first commercial Pentium 4 processor used in the current most advanced platform of Pentium 4, LGA775."
When Yang Fei finished explaining, the entire conference room burst into excited cheers.
Chen Xiao also had a smile on his face.
He never thought that the first computer chip in China was made in this way.
The chip manufacturing process is not as advanced as others, and the equipment is not as advanced as others.
Such an achievement was achieved entirely by improving and perfecting existing technology.
But Chen Xiao also knows that this is inseparable from Xia Xin International's existing production technology.
If Xiaxin International does not have the equipment to produce chips, Changtian Technology will not be able to produce chips no matter how capable it is.
Moreover, this is the best moment in the history of Xia Chip. In a few years, Xia Chip International will enter a stage of chaos and will no longer have the strength to compete with overseas chip companies.
Yang Fei seemed to be showing off, and also seemed to have some regrets when he said: "But the most regrettable thing is that the power consumption of the chip is really high. If we don't use our specially designed radiator, it will be difficult to lower the temperature. Jokingly speaking
, ready to grill on the chips.”
Everyone looked at Chen Xiao, waiting for Chen Xiao to speak.
Chen Xiao first asked: "Mr. Zhang, can our Yanjiang Semiconductor Company mass-produce Pangu 2 chips and Pangu 1 chips?"
Zhang Jing has a very good understanding of Xiaxin International’s production capacity.
He said seriously: "Our current production capacity should be able to produce about 5,000 pieces per month. We will have to wait for the equipment to be equipped before we can further expand mass production."
"During this period, I put all Xiaxin International's equipment into chip production and produced it under the name of Yanjiang Semiconductor. In this way, I can produce 6,000 to 8,000 chips a month."
Chen Xiao could tell that Zhang Jing and Xia Xin International were already very cooperative.
Xiaxin International applies all equipment to Xiaxin Semiconductor Company, rather than producing it under the name of Xiaxin International.
This approach is quite upright.
Chen Xiao nodded and said: "With our current output, it is unrealistic to produce more chips, but the symbolic significance of Pangu chips is greater than its practical significance."
Chen Xiao said to Wu Jun: "Immediately launch the production of T1 computers based on the Pangu 2 chip platform. We just want to tell Intel and other companies that if the price of your chips cannot be reduced, then we will produce it ourselves!"
Chen Xiao also wanted to tell Nokia and Ollila that Changtian Technology no longer seeks cooperation with these technology companies, and self-reliance is the only way.
Then, Chen Xiao turned to Wang Yu and said: "The mobile phone chip you designed will continue to be improved and changed to a 130-nanometer process. I will find a solution in terms of power consumption."
