Chips have always been our hot topic and concern. Chips are also a dazzling crown at the top of the world’s technology. Whoever controls the chip can have a say in the technology world, because the production of chips involves many technologies, such as semiconductors. Technology, integrated circuit technology, precision machine tools, photolithography machines, etc., the country’s technological level is definitely not bad when it has mastered chip production.
The Dutch lithography machine is undoubtedly one of the most advanced. We once wanted to purchase their lithography machine for our own research. Unexpectedly, they laughed at us and said, “Even if we give you the production drawings, you 10 It can’t be made even in 10 years.” We are humiliated after hearing this. Therefore, we still need to improve ourselves. Only when our own science and technology improves, will we gain more technological “freedom.”
How far is the distance between domestic chips and foreign countries?
Now the most advanced foreign chips have achieved 5nm and claim that their technology is fully mature. At the same time, they have also proposed the concept of 3nm. Now our domestic 28nm chips can be said to be mature, 14nm chips have basically completed mass production, and 7nm chip experts also claim that production will be completed soon. I personally think that the technology needs to be further improved. Don’t be blindly confident and say so much. We are three to five. It will be easy to overtake in corners by 2020, but I think opportunities are indeed coming.
In a sense, 28nm chips can fully satisfy 80% of our market, including aerospace, automotive chips, etc. 3nm chips are only in the development and theoretical concept stage in the world. As long as we can produce 7nm chips completely independently, we will not be stuck at all, so we don’t need to be so pessimistic.
The global 5nm chip collective “rollover”
The world’s most advanced 5nm chips may be about to collectively “overturn”. Starting from the second half of 2020, many companies have taken the lead in launching 5nm chip mobile phones, and promoted that the performance of the latest 5nm processors has been greatly improved, in terms of power consumption and There is a qualitative leap in speed.
However, this has also been questioned by users, because since Apple, Huawei, Qualcomm, and Samsung launched the latest mobile phones equipped with 5nm mobile processor flagship versions, they were popular at first, but the actual experience of users who purchased them was not as good as expected. ,, this caused the global 5nm chip to encounter a violent “overturn”.
It can be seen that 7nm chip foreign technology is mature, but 5nm chip may still have some way to go, and experts say that our 7nm chip technology has basically matured. This is really good news. This really allows us to see a historical opportunity. We work hard to achieve the best historical opportunity for overtaking in corners.
We must maintain a mentality of catching up, but don’t be too optimistic, because 3nm, and 5nm are more difficult than 7nm and 14nm. The further we get to the back, the less relaxed we will be.
The latest A14, 5nm chip equipped with Apple 12 claims to improve CPU performance by 40%, graphics performance by 30%, and energy consumption can be greatly reduced by 30%. This means that the iPhone 12 is significantly faster than the iPhone 11, with clearer images and longer battery life.
However, according to many Apple 12 users, this 5nm and A14 chip seems to be a slap in the face. This is mainly reflected in the energy consumption of the mobile phone. The energy consumption dropped by 20% to 40% after one night of standby, which is a bit disappointing.
Similarly, Huawei has also launched its most powerful Kirin 9000, 5nm chip. Official data shows that it can increase the CPU by 25% and the GPU by 50%. The current feedback is still good. The Snapdragon 888 chip is also overturned, and the Snapdragon 888 processor is the most commonly used chip in our Xiaomi, Oppo and vivo mobile phones. If you buy the corresponding mobile phone, you can feel whether you are satisfied with it.
Judging from the feedback results from the world’s top 5nm chip companies, 5nm chip processors feel a bit cool. The greater the expectations, the greater the disappointment.
Chip design and chip production are both important
Huawei has designed its own 5nm chip in a few years, but it is still a long way to go to produce it on its own. As Dutch experts said, I can sell you the drawings, but you just can’t make it. We missed previous historical opportunities, but when global 5nm chip production encounters a technical bottleneck, it is a great opportunity. If we all can seize this opportunity and increase investment in chip production and talent training, then we will definitely be able to achieve it easily. When overtaking in corners, technology will slowly become more powerful and freer in the future.
