Chapter 281 Hua Teng's Level

The latest processor chips shown by Qualcomm really put pressure on other domestic chip design manufacturers.

The three chip design companies Huateng, HiSilicon, and MediaTek are all well-known names in Huaguo, and Qualcomm obviously wants to grab Huaguo's market from them this time.

After Tong Hao got the news of the processor chip produced by Qualcomm, he rushed to Huateng without stopping.

Qualcomm has already produced the corresponding processor chip, so Huateng will naturally have some preparations.

"Now the company has been able to mass-produce 9-nanometer manufacturing process processor chips, and Huateng G840 and Huateng Z200 processor chips use this technology!"

Watching his boss arrive, Zhang Rujin first took out the two flagship processor chips newly designed by his company.

For a long time, Huateng has adopted a step-by-step approach in the chip manufacturing process, and the step-by-step 10nm process has gradually developed to the 7nm process.

在芯片制程上，16、14、12、10、7、5nm一直是光刻机制程技术的分水岭。

First-class semiconductor manufacturers such as TSMC have always liked to break through the limits of technology, while other semiconductor companies will consider developing slightly easier manufacturing processes when they do not have the same technology as first-class semiconductor companies.

In Tong Hao’s era, first-class semiconductor companies all made breakthroughs in 5nm technology, and domestic semiconductor companies only made breakthroughs in 9nm technology.

In this period, when TSMC specializes in researching the 7nm process to seek a breakthrough, when Samsung retreats to the 8nm process, Huateng has already made plans for the development of the company's technology. It plans to break through the 9nm process this year, and break through the 8nm process in the middle of next year. Breakthrough 7nm.

The Z200 and G840 processor chips can be said to be Huateng's main products next year. The Z200 processor chip is relatively weaker, while the G840 is obviously stronger.

The Huateng Z200 processor chip is made of 9nm technology this time. Compared with the previous generation Z100 processor chip, this brand new processor chip has a 20% increase in CPU, a 10% increase in GPU, and ISP Added an extra core.

It can be said that this processor chip has completely surpassed the Huateng G830, and is even comparable to the latest Qualcomm Fire Dragon K820.

The Huateng G840 processor chip and the Huateng Z200 processor chip use a 9nm process, but this time it uses a new architecture with one super large core plus three medium cores and four small cores.

This makes this processor 830% higher than the CPU of the previous generation Huateng G25, while the GPU is directly increased to 20%, and the overall level can basically be infinitely close to that of the Huolong K820+.

However, it is only limited to proximity. After all, the other party uses an 8nm manufacturing process, and the number of transistors that can be placed on the chip is much more than that of 9nm.

"How is the 8nm process now?"

Tong Hao still has a certain ambition in his heart. He hopes that his company's processor chip can defeat Qualcomm. If he wants to defeat Qualcomm, he must first master the 8nm mass production technology.

When Zhang Rujin went to talk to his boss, he didn't feel too strange. After all, Huateng has always regarded Qualcomm as its biggest enemy since its establishment.

It is also a very normal thing for my boss to want to compete with Qualcomm in terms of processor chips.

"Now our 8nm process has begun to be tried, but the yield rate is not very high. It is estimated that after August, our company will be able to fully grasp the 8nm mass production process!"

Huateng Company naturally has a certain standard in the production of processor chips, and has global technical exchanges, and has a certain grasp of the 8nm manufacturing process.

And Huateng can basically master the 8nm manufacturing process in the second half of this year, and truly break through the 7nm process at the end of this year or the beginning of next year.

"After August? That's enough. Let's design a Huateng G8+ made with an 840nm process based on the current Huateng G8 processor chip, and strive to truly overthrow Qualcomm in the second half of the year!"

Tong Hao had a determined look on his face, and he was particularly concerned about the competition with Qualcomm this time.

Zhang Rujin did not reject his own boss, he also understood that only by truly defeating Qualcomm, this company will be truly recognized by the world, and then it will be able to enter the road of globalization.

After introducing two flagship-oriented processors, this time Zhang Rujin took out two G-series low-end processors, Huateng G720 and Huateng G620 processor chips.

This time Huateng G720 adopts a new 11nm manufacturing process, which is 25% higher than the previous generation of CPU and GPU, and adds a DSP module inside, which means that this chip can support Intelligent AI voice assistant.

As for the Huateng G620 processor chip for the entry-level low-end machine market, this time Zhang Rujin also uses the same 12nm manufacturing process as Qualcomm and the same octa-core architecture.

In terms of CPU and GPU, this processor has improved by 35% compared with the previous generation, and has also added DSP modules, which makes this entry-level processor chip support high-speed AI as well as the Huateng G720 processor chip. operation.

In addition to the G series processor chips, Huateng also has a mid-range X processor chip. This processor chip received a lot of praise once it was launched.

This time, Zhang Rujin's team launched three different processor chips for this series.

X105, X105T, X105+ three processor chips.

Among these three processing chips, the first two processor chips still use the most conventional 10nm manufacturing process, while the X105+ uses the most advanced 9nm manufacturing process, which is basically the same as Huateng Z200 and Huateng G840 Products belonging to the same class.

As the latest X-series processor chip, the X105 processor chip has a 95% improvement in GPU and CPU compared to the previous generation X20, and it is estimated to surpass Huateng X95T in terms of running points.

Compared with the previous generation X105T processor chip, the X95T processor chip has only increased by 15% in terms of CPU, but has been improved by 25% in terms of GPU. Such data can basically reach the level of Huateng Z100 processor.

As for the latest Huateng X105+, which uses a 9nm manufacturing process and adopts an architecture with two large cores and six small cores, the CPU and GPU of this X-series flagship chip have completely surpassed the Huateng Z200. The processor chip is about 5%.

However, this processor chip is still inferior to Huateng Z200 in terms of comprehensive level. After all, Huateng X105+ has made such a big upgrade in terms of CPU and GPU, and correspondingly, it has undergone a large-scale shrinkage in ISP and other aspects.

This processor chip can be said to be the processor chip that Tong Hao asked Zhang Rujin to produce specially. Of course, the target of this processor chip is the Meizu company that Tong Hao recently invested in.

And this processor chip can be said to be a very powerful game chip. With such a powerful GPU and CPU blessing, it is basically not afraid of other current games.

"This Huateng conference will not be held for the time being, but the news of the G720, G620, and X105 and Z200 processor chips will be released temporarily. Companies in need will naturally contact us!"

Tong Hao looked at the 7 processor chips placed on the table in front of him, thought over and over again, and finally made his own decision.

Qualcomm held a technology summit. At this summit, Qualcomm demonstrated the strength of its own processor chip. This level of processor may attract the rice and blue and green factories. It can be expected that several manufacturers will basically use their own mobile phones next year Among them, Qualcomm's processor chips are used.

To be honest, Huateng’s current output is basically sufficient. However, Tianyu’s market share has risen sharply this year, the international market has emerged, and its shipments have risen sharply. In addition, Huateng has also begun to receive orders for other chips. Next year, Huateng’s After the processor chips are supplied to Tianyu and Meizu, there will not be too many remaining processor chips.
