When asked about the 9-digit data system, Shen Tianhui smiled and said:

"Nine-bit is the result of our research a few years ago. Someone originally proposed that we cannot be the same as capitalist countries. They are 8-bit, so we have to have one more bit than them, so we developed a 9-bit transmission and storage method. ”

"This comrade is still in our institute. This is his achievement. Our general-purpose computer also retains these functions to connect with old equipment. We originally wanted to replace it, but the leader was a little unhappy, and we didn't So that I can explain it to others."

Li Sanbiao sweated violently, thinking that this was all unimaginable, and said: "The country is revitalizing the economy, and we also consider the market for research and development. The technology must be scalable, try to be standardized and universal, and try to use binary and 8-digit multiples. Designing it will also facilitate our future upgrades."

Seeing that Shen Tianhui had no objection, Li Sanbiao continued:

"I think the top priority is to formulate unified design standards, unify ideas, programming specifications, and make technical backups. The specifications are a set of ready-made design templates. Newcomers can learn quickly, and the unit can avoid the collapse of the entire company because of one person's failure. If the technology is lost, it also prevents an outsider from slapping the head and interfering with production."

Shen Tianhui nodded frequently and said: "Your suggestion is very good. We will hold a technical meeting and compile internal specifications."

Li Sanbiao knew that Longguo's electronics industry had become backward in the 1980s. One of the reasons was that it was centered on individual research and there was no unified standard, resulting in different designs and the experience of each unit could not be used universally.

This was also a characteristic of all industries at that time, because there were some things that companies were not willing to come up with, or even apply for patents.

Later, departmental standards were finally formulated, but they were completely inconsistent among different departments.

The machinery industry is okay, after all, the turnover of personnel is small, but the construction industry is exposed to more serious problems.

For example, the Ministry of Construction, the Ministry of Railways, the Ministry of Transportation, and the Ministry of Water Resources are all infrastructure departments, plus the Ministry of Metallurgy, which is in charge of steel. Each department has its own set of building material standards and manufacturers.

Later, it was compiled in accordance with international standards, and it was a helpless move to integrate with international standards, because no one among the experts from the five major domestic departments wanted to integrate with each other.

In fact, everyone has contributed, but dissatisfaction with each other is the weakness of human nature.

Li Sanbiao asked the third uncle to dig out a book of IBM computer design standards, write out some important parts by hand, and handed it to Shen Tianhui the next day.

These were still technical secrets at the time, but forty years later they had become outdated and were made public.

Li Sanbiao handed it to Shen Tianhui, who was overjoyed after seeing it.

Not to mention that it contains a lot of technical details, the most important thing is that it directly solves the technical path problem.

This standard is a summary of IBM's experience and the result of countless trials and errors. Shen Tianhui can tell how much value it contains at a glance.

Shen Tianhui invited Li Sanbiao and quickly compiled a "General Computer Design Technical Regulations" within three days, using Li Sanbiao's information as the main body.

In the small auditorium, Shen Tianhui held a technical meeting, attended by all engineers and technicians, and announced the implementation of this set of internal standards within the unit.

"Floating point processing unit...CPU integrated cache technology...motherboard bus integration...expanded memory...display core...mechanical hard drive..."

All of this is still new to most of the computer experts here!

Shen Tianhui just figured it out yesterday and explained it one by one.

She still doesn’t know that what is written in this book is the architecture of 80286.

"Our new processor will adopt a new architecture, including in addition to the bus interface unit and execution unit, there is also an address unit for converting logical addresses into physical addresses, and an instruction unit... Each unit has nothing to do with other units. Can work in parallel."

"The execution unit includes the arithmetic logic unit (ALU) and flag register, general register queue, the address unit includes the physical address generator, segment register, segment descriptor cache, and the instruction unit IU includes the instruction decoder and decoded instruction queue. …”

"In addition, in addition to the CPU, we will add a math coprocessor to increase the computing speed..."

Everyone present was dumbfounded. After a few days, Commissioner Shen had designed a CPU system with clear logic and complete functions!

Next, Shen Tianhui invited Li Sanbiao up again and began to explain the memory module.

She followed Li Sanbiao's advice and separated the memory. Instead of soldering it directly to the motherboard, she made it into a separate memory stick!

Li Sanbiao was not polite and said loudly: "If we want to make a microcomputer, we must get rid of the thinking of industrial single-chip computers and turn the computer into an industrial product for home and commercial use. It must be unitized and easy to repair! Let ordinary people who do not understand the principle After witnessing one or two disassembly and assembly operations, people can operate independently and even become maintenance workers and assemblers!"

What? Ordinary people can also repair computers and even assemble computers!

This is simply unbelievable among the elites of 771 Institute. It would be great if ordinary people can play with a calculator, but how can they disassemble and assemble a computer?

Li Sanbiao said: "Our new general-purpose computer has to face various high-end users and may not be able to shut down at will! And there are only so many of us, so it is impossible to replace it on site like repairing machines, so all parts must be easy to disassemble and replace! ”

"In the future, we will be more professional. In the future, we will be divided into 4 groups, CPU group, motherboard group, memory group and hard disk group!"

Many disdainful voices continued to sound below.

"Hard drive? Are you kidding me? Can we build it?"

"Hey, today's young people are always too ambitious and unwilling to keep their feet on the ground."

"Blow it, brag it, you won't be taxed if you brag..."

"Whoever wants to build hard drives can go for it! I won't go anyway!"

Li Sanbiao cleared his throat and said loudly: "I know, everyone finds it incredible, but this is the idea put forward by Mr. Shen. Magnetic core memory is outdated. We must catch up with the West and build our own hard drives!"

Shen Tianhui also said: "Don't worry, we are not just crazy. Li Sanbiao has obtained the latest hard disk technical information for us. I believe we can imitate it through study!"

"As for why we are grouped together, as everyone knows, I used to work in chemical engineering. I came here to extract monocrystalline silicon, and then switched to integrated circuits. I have changed my research direction three times in my life."

Many people praised: "Mr. Shen is worthy of being a member of the academic department. He has made such great achievements across three majors! If he only majored in one major..."
Chapter completed!
