We all know Moore's Law, yes, that's the famous sentence.
[When the price remains unchanged, the number of components that can be accommodated on an integrated circuit will double about every 18-24 months, and the performance will also double. 】
This law or phenomenon has been going on for half a century, but it should still be considered an observation or speculation, not a physical or natural law.
In fact, Moore’s Law also has an online or ceiling. Generally, scientists believe that the ceiling of the current semiconductor lithography chip manufacturing technology should be around 2nm.
Because the diameter of a single nucleus is about the order of 0.1nm, the distance between ten atoms is the limit. At most, it can achieve 1nm, depending on the measured effect. With certain stability and reliability, 2nm may be the limit.
Of course, some scientists have also put forward the 1nm concept, which means that it breaks the 2nm limit that some scientists think, so as to reach the top 1nm of this type of silicon semiconductor photolithography chip.
Starting from 3 nanometers, it will be very difficult to increase by an order of magnitude, which is even more difficult than the previous 7 nanometers to 5 nanometers, and 5 nanometers to 3 nanometers.
Therefore, the chip manufacturing technology will have a short-term bottleneck period until new technologies and processes appear, or new materials appear.
For example, the current scientists proposed to replace silicon materials with carbon materials for chip manufacturing materials, and its performance is much better than the current silicon-based chips.
In addition, photonic chips, quantum chips, and biochip technologies are also developing rapidly. For example, quantum chips have a preliminary prototype. As for the photonic chip, the development is also very rapid. Especially with the support of Wu Hao's composite lens lens technology this time, I believe the photonic chip will come out soon.
Of course, these are cutting-edge processor chips. Like ordinary application chips, they still depend on this ordinary chip for a long time.
This is also the reason why Wu Haofei has made such great efforts to promote the establishment of the development of lithography machine and the construction of the whole industry chain of chip manufacturing.
And this stagnant time window or bottleneck period is also just conducive to them to catch up.
Hearing Wu Hao's words, Zhang Jun nodded, and then asked him, "Should we add some more chip reserves for emergencies."
Wu Hao shook his head when he heard the words: "Let's update the metabolism according to the current reserves. The chip is still a serious diving thing. It is now in the windy period, and the patriotism is so expensive, so I stock up and lose money.
And if you increase the order at once, anyone with a discerning eye knows that we are hoarding goods, it will definitely arouse alertness, too late! "
"But at present, we don't have much stock of chips. Normally, we can only support our production demand for one quarter. If we save a little bit of regulation, at most half a year, we may be facing a situation where there is no core available." Zhang Junman Said with a worried face.
Wu Hao smiled and asked: "Who said no, the current 14-nanometer and the latest 7-nanometer chip technology of domestic foundries are still sufficient. As for 5 nanometer and 3 nanometer chips, they will only affect our mobile product equipment. The gap is not big.
In this regard, we can make up for other parts and software technologies, which can almost basically fill the disadvantages in this area.
That's why, I asked you to stay a bit tight on the supply. As long as we master the core technology, we have capital and capital in our hands, so we won't have the power to fight back.
In addition, the world’s most advanced and best battery technology and battery products are now in our hands. If they dare to break our chips, then we will break their batteries and other technologies.
Although compared to cutting-edge chip technology, our battery technology seems to be relatively simple or ordinary. However, it is the easiest way for users to feel the gap. "
Indeed, Wu Hao said this with his confidence. After all, the most advanced battery technology and battery production in the world are in their hands, which is also a trump card in his hands.
The gap between the chip generation is actually not too obvious, it just sounds good after all. However, battery technology can clearly feel the difference. For batteries of the same volume and weight, the energy storage density of good batteries is several times that of ordinary batteries, and this is also very obvious in daily use.
Especially on wearable devices such as AR glasses that are emerging now, the place where the battery can be placed is very small, which means that the volume of the battery must be particularly small before it can be placed.
In addition, it must be light enough so that the glasses worn in this way will not make the wearer feel heavy or even uncomfortable.
In meeting these two conditions, we must also pay attention to battery life. Such wearable devices generally require a long battery life. If the battery life is too short, the experience will be very poor.
What makes these manufacturers more powerless is that another core technology to solve this problem is also in the hands of Wu Hao and the others~EbookFREE.me~ that is wireless remote charging technology.
It is precisely because of these core technologies that Wu Hao and the others are able to compete with such a day-to-day enterprise as S-Star Fruit without giving up or even gaining an advantage.
This is an important reason why, although certain overseas countries impose restrictions and sanctions on them, they have not banned their chip procurement.
This is the difference between controlling the core technology and not controlling the core technology, just like Dajiang, who currently controls the global consumer drone market. The reason why Lao Mi desperately sanctions our technology companies, but is helpless against Da Jiang.
Hearing what Wu Hao said, Zhang Jun also smiled: "It's no wonder that you are so restrictive in this regard. It turns out that you are preparing for this."
"You have to give yourself a hand in everything you do, so that you won't be in a hurry when dealing with crises."
Zhang Jun nodded: "So, I'm relieved.
In this case, the chip manufacturing project we initiated is not as eager as other companies. In this regard, can we deal with it more and strive for more benefits for us? "
Wu Hao smiled and said: "In this regard, you should take your own measures and don't go too far. After all, we initiated this project, so we should set an example.
But this is certainly not a reason or excuse for us to suffer. The benefits we should strive for must be strived for. Especially in terms of the right to speak, we must have a place. Otherwise, this project is likely to become a money-trapping tool for others, and we are busy all the time. "
"I understand when you say that." Zhang Jun nodded: "For now, a and Penguin are definitely our most favorable competitors in terms of right to speak.
If we want to win in this area, we must get the support of other participants. "
