Chapter 129 Brand new structure
The one responsible for the flow of the film is the military chip producers found by the relevant departments. Although they have no reputation in China, their experience in chips is solid. They are considered top-notch in China and are still first-class even if they are placed in the international market.
At least they have come into contact with a wide variety of chip design solutions, which are much better than those who specialize in producing commercial chips, especially those who have dismantled and imitated military chips from many countries, and have a very good understanding of the current chip development direction.
In their own words, there is nothing in the world that has never been seen!
"Which chip company is this designed!" asked the supervisor in charge of the filming.
"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"
Xie Ling'er felt a little puzzled. In her opinion, even if the AI chip is different from ordinary chips, its basic structure should be the same as the same source. A simple chip flow should not be difficult for this military chip research and development institute.
"I've never seen a solution for this chip structure!"
When the chip research and development manager saw Xie Linger showing a puzzled expression, he explained: "This is a brand new structure, which is completely different from the current mainstream chip design in the international market. If you have a chip, you have to rearrange the chip according to the process steps on the design drawings you provide. It may be easy to say, but it is actually not that simple."
Xie Ling'er felt a little confused when she heard this: "Can't that happen to the filming?"
"It's not that it can't be done, but the cost is very high!"
The chip research and development manager carefully looked at the parameters of the design drawings, and estimated it in his mind and said: "I think the chip you gave should be 27nm technology, which costs about 10 million yuan to open a film. Having said that, why did you choose to use 27nm for this chip? Not to mention that this level of chip technology is about to be eliminated, and the specifications are not in line with international practices? It's really strange..."
"So can you take orders?"
Xie Ling'er did not explain the source of the design plan to the other party. After all, Meow Star Laboratory is a sensitive department in China. Even if it is a laboratory for a private enterprise, the plan comes from Li Maoye's words, maybe it is another black technology.
The chip R&D manager stretched out his hand: "Just give it money!"
The cost of 10 million in filming is really scary, which is much higher than ordinary chips. But this is a brand new process design step, and even if Xie Linger wants to bargain, she can't find any problems.
So much money was a bit beyond expectations, Xie Ling'er quickly called Li Maoye, and the money would be deposited immediately after obtaining the permission.
"Are you sure you want to follow the above design?"
The chip research and development supervisor was also shocked by this kind of spending money and couldn't help but confirm it once, so as not to make use of chips if the chip was successful.
"You don't have to worry about this, just do it according to our requirements." Xie Ling'er replied.
Of course, she couldn't keep following the video clip. After making the matter arranging, she would immediately leave it to the people below to follow up. She just needs to report the video clip progress every day. Anyway, professionals have already done professional things, so others just need to wait.
This chip research and production institute is also very efficient. When the money is in place, people will be arranged to do it immediately. They don’t ask what this chip with a unique structural design is used for, and do the process steps according to the design drawings step by step.
But when the AI chip slitting was successful, the chip R&D manager felt a little strange: "The yield rate is 100%? No problem occurred! Is this the employees of our institute good technology, or is the chip design solution provided by the other party awesome?"
No one can give him an answer to such a question.
After the chipping was successful, the chip R&D supervisor asked someone to conduct routine tests to see what level the computing performance of this chip can reach.
A total of 10 chips were made, and each one was tested. The data was amazing. These 27nm chips could actually exceed the computing level of 5nm chips!
"Are you wrong?" The chip research and development manager couldn't believe that the data was true. It simply violated the scientific common sense he had learned, just like someone told him that the sun came out from the west.
"Report to the supervisor! After we obtained the data, each chip repeated the test three times, and the results were the same."
Of course, the people in the research institute will not make low-level mistakes. They also know what the calculation data of ordinary chips will be roughly in the future, but what is happening in front of them is indeed very outrageous. The 27nm chip is actually higher than the 5nm chip?
It's really hard to understand!
The chip research and development supervisor could not explain this phenomenon. After thinking about it, he felt that this matter was strange, especially the chip design plan was taken by an outsider like Xie Ling'er. Usually, not only acquaintances would come to him to help, but the result was...
"Wait! This kind of chip structure has never been seen before. Could it be the secret research and development of the relevant departments?" The chip research and development manager thought that he had accidentally touched the truth, but he did not dare to verify it with Xie Ling'er.
"Don't spread this matter!"
The chip research and development supervisor said to the people present: "Even if someone asks, they will not be able to say it without my consent. Do you know?"
After receiving everyone's reply, the chip research and development supervisor turned his attention to the design pattern. He was thinking about the value contained in this chip structure. If the CPU chip and graphics card chip can be redesigned based on this chip structure solution, wouldn't it bypass the patent fortress of Western countries?
So a bold idea kept churning in his mind.
...
Li Maoye didn't care about the little episodes that occurred in these streaming films. After he got the chip from Xie Ling'er, he immediately burned the underlying AI instruction program. In addition to the unique structure, these chips also need specific programs to run to have a certain level of AI intelligence.
Moreover, once this chip is successfully burned, there is no way to modify it. This is a means to prevent AI programs from being tampered with.
"It's time to prepare together, it's just the east wind!"
Li Maoye put all ten chips into the box and put them in, intending to install the AI chips after the laboratory boys built the robots.
But a phone call caused his plan to be messed up.
"What SMIC people are looking for me? Is there anything important?"
Li Maoye felt a little strange. He had no interaction with the other party at all. How could there be an important discussion? When asked the other party, he could not explain clearly. Sometimes he asked him if he knew chip design, and sometimes he asked him if he had time to go to the Magic City.
"Not available!"
He has never given other people a good color to the inexplicable invitation, especially the phone number is basically known by acquaintances, and he does not understand why the other party knows it.
I thought the matter would end, but the problem became more troublesome.
