Ultra-Dimensional Technology Era

With the development speed of Shenguang Instruments, when the time comes, they will use their strong technical advantages to directly overwhelm the other party, causing these companies to go bankrupt directly.

The purpose of appealing in the Huaguo court is to make the other party avoid it. Once the federal court dares to do something wrong, then don't blame the Huaguo court for repaying him in the same way.

As soon as the patent war between the two sides started, the public opinion war also broke out.

The Internet at home and abroad is full of news and heated discussions from both sides.

1 month 1 day.

Yangtze River Storage's two self-produced memory chips are officially released globally.

Jiangcheng, the conference site of YMTC memory particles.

Under the spotlight, CEO Yang Shining trot onto the stage with a little excitement, and he took the microphone:

"Welcome all the guests to participate in the press conference of Changjiang Inspur Memory Particles, and also welcome the viewers and friends watching on the Internet."

Clap, clap... Most of the people at the scene are Chinese people, and my family must applaud and encourage.

"Now, I will personally introduce to you, the Yangtze River Wave-1 and the Yangtze River Wave-2."

Yang Shining introduced the performance of Changjiang Inspur-1 and Changjiang Inspur-2 in detail, and finally offered a price that was similar to the market price.

Although this price is to make money at a loss, Sanxin, Hynix, and Micron have already cut prices, and YMTC can only see the tricks.

After entering the reporter's questioning session, the guy who found the fault came.

A reporter from Dong-A Daily held a microphone and asked, "President Yang, is it true that Sanxin Electronics sued Yangtze Memory for memory patent infringement?"

Apparently, the reporter's question was intentionally causing ambiguity, whether she was asking whether the prosecution was true or whether the patent infringement was true.

"First, Sanxin Electronics did sue YMTC; second, our company did not infringe Sanxin's patent." Yang Shining was not fooled.

"Then why is your company's chip design speed so fast? This obviously violates the general rules of chip design." The reporter chased after him.

Yang Shining replied coldly: "Laws are meant to be broken, we have adopted a brand new design concept."

Before the reporter continued to ask questions, Yang Shining preemptively said: "Our memory particle technology is 16 nanometers, what technology does Sanxin Electronics use for memory particles?"

Uh... the reporter was speechless for a moment.

Of course, it is impossible for Sanxin to use the 16nm process to produce memory chips. The international memory chips generally use 22 or 24 nm, mainly because this process is very mature, requires low equipment, and has a high yield rate.

The 16nm process of Sanxin Electronics is used to produce high-end products such as CPUs and graphics cards.

Now other reporters dare not ask this question, but turn to other questions, such as when will 32G memory particles be mass-produced, and whether there are plans to produce other chips.

At the same time that Yangtze River Storage released memory particles.

On the same day, the Watson Association announced the lifting of the ban on semiconductor equipment and materials. It seems that ASML and Applied Materials are moving very quickly.

Chapter 95 Drain from the Bottom

For the general public, it is difficult for them to perceive the fierce battle that is breaking out in the chip industry. People who are not in this industry are at most hearsay.

Only those people and companies involved in this semiconductor war can feel the cruelty most intuitively.

Taking Yangtze River Storage as a chestnut, they will lose 5 to 10 yuan every time they sell a piece of memory chips.

For enterprises, this kind of shopping is like using blood as bullets to shoot out, constantly consuming each other, it depends on who can't support it, and only the one who persists to the end may become the ultimate winner.

However, among these companies, SMIC still has certain advantages, mainly because SMIC has mastered the high ground of 12nm technology.

This top-level technology is an irresistible temptation for those companies that need to process CPU and GPU.

……

"Mr. Yu, this is our production line. At present, the good product rate has increased to about 87%, and it is estimated that it can increase to more than 95% by the end of the month." Zhao Jun quickly introduced.

In the dust-free workshop, the 12nm chip production line is continuously producing storage chips for debugging equipment. Although hundreds of thousands of materials are lost a day, this kind of pain is the only way to go.

Yu Chengdong looked at the running production line, and he suddenly suggested: "If you tap out the Kirin 800 now, can you speed up the production speed?"

"This..." Zhao Jun turned his head and discussed with Li Weiguang in a low voice for a while, Li Weiguang finally nodded:

"Mr. Yu, if you are willing to bring the Kirin 800 to tape out, we can strive to complete the tape out in February and put it into mass production in March."

The reason why Huawei is so anxious to start production is mainly because Sanxin Electronics' 16nm mobile phone CPU is in mass production, and the display screen is also stuck by Sanxin Electronics.

BOE is researching and developing, but it can't quench the near thirst, and Huawei mobile phones need to break through.

For TSMC, only the Kirin 16 chip with 400nm technology can be used. The Kirin 400 will definitely not be able to support Qualcomm and Sanxin. Now they have come up with Huawei’s killer feature, the Kirin 800.

The Hisilicon chip can only complete the 16nm process at present, and the Kirin 800 is designed for the 12nm process, so it can only choose SMIC.

Yu Chengdong gritted his teeth and prepared to tape out in advance so that the Kirin 800 could be put into mass production in March this year, and he knew that SMIC's production line productivity is more than five times faster than that of TSMC, which should be sufficient to meet Huawei's mobile phone needs.

"Mr. Zhao, we will send over the chip design template the day after tomorrow, and you can arrange tape-out as soon as possible."

"No problem." Zhao Jun smiled brightly. Filming requires money, and it's not a small amount. According to Huawei's requirements, it can't be done without two to three hundred million.

SMIC has no reason to refuse other people's money for trial production.

The two parties hit it off immediately. After signing the contract, HiSilicon immediately sent the chip design template to SMIC, and SMIC also immediately debugged the production line to conduct tape-out debugging for the Kirin 800.

……

While the semiconductor industry was full of gunpowder, Western companies once again played other methods.

1 month 14 day.

The Android company announced an all-round upgrade for the Android mobile phone system.

Microsoft followed suit and announced a comprehensive upgrade of the computer system.

These upgrades have no effect on ordinary users, at most the system has become a little bigger.

However, for the vast majority of manufacturers using Android or Microsoft systems, this matter is not that simple.

……

"Mr. Gao, something is wrong." Yang Shining said hastily.

After hearing the call, Gao Zhiyuan frowned: "Boss Yang, speak slowly."

"Mr. Gao, it's like this..." Yang Shining cut a long story short, explaining the cause and effect of the matter.

After hearing Yang Shining's words, Gao Zhiyuan's face changed drastically, and he was so angry that he yelled, "Despicable and shameless Google and Microsoft."
