Computers only recognize 0 and 1, and are represented by the open and blockage of the circuit (voltage definition), and the most basic unit that processes data and logic relationships is the "logic gate".

"And" door, "OR" door...

A processor with tens of millions of transistors is composed of these most basic units.

But……

What about data transmission?

Yu Changsheng was under great pressure. After more than a year of joining Huaxin Technology, the graphics card business department handed over such an important task to him.

Design a new next-generation graphics card interface specification.

To this end, Huaxin Technology set up three graphics card interface specification groups, and the time given was three months. After three months, experts argued and selected the best choice.

In other words, the group led by Yu Changsheng is just one of them.

If your plan is chosen, it will greatly improve yourself, both in terms of interests and reputation, and there is no doubt.

"Everyone, our goal is very clear. Our job is to provide strong support for the godson graphical interface program at the hardware level, with upgradeable bit width and data transmission capabilities."

“Suppliable?”

Yu Changsheng nodded. If the plan stands out, he must have his own characteristics.

In Changsheng's view, to make progress, we must first follow the leadership's footsteps.

Wang Anyran has a saying that he remembers very clearly.

In the past, the standards were set by others. If we wanted to play with them, the first thing we had to do was to understand them thoroughly, such as the PC interface, and if you want to play the graphics card to the sky, the transmission protocol and interface specifications must be as follows.

Now, the ddr memory standard is ahead, and the graphics card interface is the first time Huaxin Technology has wrestled with international giants in terms of motherboard interface specifications.

so……

On the premise of ensuring stability and performance, how to extend the life cycle of the interface standard is in Changsheng's opinion, the most important thing.

The key to extending the life cycle is to reserve enough space for future process improvement and upgrade under the existing interface.

"Increasing the voltage can increase the transmission speed, but heating and power consumption limit the frequency limit, reducing the voltage, and signal-to-noise ratio limits the stability of data transmission..."

"I think we are not only considering the voltage definition, but also the framework definition on the data transmission system, including the bus interface integrated into the CPU, the data transmission control unit within the South Bridge chip, the excuse pin definition, the data instruction transmission protocol, and the data acceptance control chip, etc...."

These are all pioneering explorations. In fact, the original PCI interface standard can provide some good reference.

"PCI interface is an interface specification that provides multiple devices. In fact, we don't need that much for graphics cards."

The more you study it in depth, the less you feel in Yu Changsheng’s mind, and his original clear ideas will be affected in various ways.

"Direction, I need direction..."

Wang Anran always pays attention to the progress of various scientific research in Huaxin Technology. In fact, most of his daily life is spent holding meetings or reading weekly reports of various research.

He is naturally very concerned about the specifications of graphics card interfaces, because he knows very well that Intel is currently doing the same thing as Huaxin Technology, which is the next generation of AGP graphics card interface standards.

When the PC interface obviously cannot meet the needs of graphics cards, Huaxin Technology can make necessary attempts for the next generation of graphics cards.

Of course, Wang Anran naturally put his attitude very high against Intel competition that has dominated the P industry for decades.

The so-called losing skills does not lose the formation. Sometimes you have to learn to learn the two. Even if you face an existence that you cannot beat, you must overwhelm the opponent in terms of momentum. This is the spirit of the sword drawing.

In May, the annual IT Technology Forum was held in Bay North.

Huaxin Technology is naturally not absent from such a grand event.

Intel technology operation officer Renn disclosed the Pentium 3 processor for the first time on stage.

"Based on Intel's world-leading 320-nanometer manufacturing process, it has historically exceeded the integration of 20 million transistors, and the frequency has exceeded 500mhz. It adopts a cash bust core architecture, and the processing efficiency at the same frequency is increased by 30% in the Pentium 2 processor..."

Ren said that he looked in the direction of Huaxin Technology and raised his neck extremely arrogantly!

This scene naturally fell into Rebs' eyes. Although both of them were surnamed Lei, Rebs had to accept it.

Texas Instruments does not have mass production of 320 nanometer manufacturing technology, and Intel undoubtedly dominated the world on this.

You should know that in chips, process and design are two core competitiveness. Intel is undoubtedly the only one who masters these two core top technologies at the same time in the P field.

In other words, although ibm has advanced chip manufacturing processes, it has withdrawn from the chip design in the P industry.

Texas Instruments P chip design has not yet stood firm.

And amd has been classified as the second-tier ranks.

As a direct competitor, Renne's speech undoubtedly attracted Rebs the most attention.

But it was also expected.

Intel will start CPU and memory in the future. After spending a lot of time introducing the memory performance of the next generation of Rambus, Renn concluded with unsatisfactory: "In 1997, Intel will continue to lead the P industry..."

Perhaps except for Rebs who expressed dissatisfaction, others did not feel anything inconsistent.

Next, Nvidia's old Huang waved a forty-meter-long sword to the stage.

"Today, I brought Nvidia's latest GF display chip engineering chip, produced using ibm's leading 320nm manufacturing process..."

Rebs felt a headache when he heard it. This was bullying. They all came up with 320-nanometer manufacturing processes, but only Huaxin Technology is still struggling with the 500-nanometer manufacturing process.

"GF display chip perfectly supports Microsoft's diret3d2.0 program interface and opengl program interface specifications, which can provide graphic designers with a better experience. Of course, we have a more significant experience in the game..."

The pressure is huge!

Rebs shook his head.

Huaxin Technology is now unable to deal with the first-generation products, and Nvidia has begun to launch the second-generation products.

Even the ATI, who was not favored before, showed the next generation of Rayden display chips on the forum.

It was Huaxin Technology's representative on the stage, and Rebs tidied up his collar.

The media sitting in the first row are very interested. They really want to see what it is like to have a look at the experience of Huaxin Technology, which pioneered the era of graphics cards, being surpassed by competitors on display chips.

Of course, in terms of CPU, can Huaxin Technology still maintain the throne of performance first in the face of Intel's challenge?

Of course, there are also Intel and Nvidia...

Fellow watched it through live TV. He paid great attention to it, but has not yet raised the challenge of Huaxin Technology to a strategic level.

The reason is very simple.

No matter how powerful Huaxin Technology is, it is always a giant walking on one leg.

It is also very simple to defeat him, just cut off Huaxin Technology's chip foundry.
