Chapter 64 Tamron 5G Chip [Please continue to read]

Chen Shihe had no doubts about Xu Lei's decision, and then turned around and exited the office.

The company had just resumed operations after the annual vacation, and she had a backlog of things to deal with, so naturally she couldn't stay in Xu Lei's office for long.

After a while.

Until Xu Lei finished his own work and was free.

Only then did he reach out and pick up the report again and read through it carefully, checking the various data on it.

“Sure enough, we still make money through games!”

The sales of the Magic Star engine plus last quarter's copyright service fees paid by Godless World and other companies using the Magic Star engine, the company currently has more than 8 billion in funds on its books. This number is the envy of many listed companies.

After all, even Xiaomi, a well-known domestic mobile phone brand, only has an annual profit of more than 10 billion.

While Xu Lei was feeling emotional, he was also more confident in the future development of the company. With such a large cash flow, he could enter new fields at any time and quickly establish a solid foundation.

As for the issue of the company's listing, he has not considered it at all.

After all, the company is not short of money right now.

After dealing with the financial statements, Xu Lei then focused his energy back on Xingtong.

Learn about the latest hot information in various industries around the world through her.

in order to respond promptly.

Let’s talk about Warwick. After getting Yinglong EDA, the chip design department started working overtime on the design work.

Based on the company's original high-end chips, Yinglong replaced the overseas authorized macro modules used in them, and relied on its powerful independent functions and high efficiency to improve the company's first high-end 5G mobile phone chip.

Just last month, overseas Qualcomm released its own 5G chip.

This has put considerable pressure on domestic chip design companies.

Mainly as the first area to deploy 5G, how can we lag behind others in the corresponding chips?

More importantly, communications have entered a new era, and the chip market will also be reshuffled. Who can gain a firm foothold depends entirely on this time.

Although Ren Yuanwei had already used the purchased overseas chip design software to develop his own high-end chips, despite the sudden switch to Yinglong EDA, the efficiency was not affected in any way, but actually improved a lot.

According to the progress, it will release its own 5G chip several months earlier than originally planned.

that's all.

Time quickly entered April.

Ren Yuanwei, who has always been looking forward to the progress of chip design, finally heard good news today.

Monday, April 1st.

April Fool's Day.

At this time, Ren Yuanwei was sitting in his office handling company business. Suddenly, the door of the office was pushed open from the outside.

Peng pushed the door forward and entered, holding a report tightly in his hand.

Judging from the expression on his face, he was probably quite excited and excited, so much so that he even forgot about knocking on the door.

Disturbed by the noise, Ren Yuanwei was about to have a fit, but when he raised his eyes and saw that the person coming was Peng Qianqian, his face suddenly turned into a smile.

"That is to say, you, Lao Peng, often rush in so rashly. How can you do it without being prudent?"

Hearing Ren Yuanwei's criticism of himself, Peng Xiangqian naturally didn't feel angry at all.

He quickly walked to his desk and handed over the report and said, "I'm so happy. The latest report from the design department shows that our chip has been designed."

"So fast?"

Peng Xiangqian's words reached his ears, and Ren Yuanwei couldn't help but be slightly startled. He paused for a few seconds to recover before quickly taking the document and reading it carefully.

Although he is looking forward to the chip coming online as soon as possible, he also knows the precision of high-end chips.

It takes a lot of time to verify and perfect.

Otherwise, if we rashly send the physical layout of the chip to a semiconductor manufacturer for OEM production, we don’t know how much tape-out costs we will lose.

But he still trusted Peng Xiangqian's words very much. He would never come and play such a joke on him because of April Fool's Day.

Not long after.

When Ren Yuanwei finished browsing the key information in the report, his face covered with traces of time could no longer hide the surprise and excitement in his heart.

Some murmured in disbelief.

"It's really unbelievable. The chip performance has actually improved by 30% compared to the original target."

Seeing Ren Yuanwei's performance, Peng Xiangqian quickly echoed and added: "Who says otherwise? The mature macro modules provided in Yinglong EDA are much better than the overseas modules we used before. Coupled with its artificial intelligence and cloud Technology, in addition to efficient design and fast simulation verification, there are basically no problems.”

"The key is that the chips designed through Yinglong EDA can greatly reduce the number of tape-outs and directly carry out production, packaging and testing."

When he said this, Peng Xiangqian's voice was already trembling slightly, which was a manifestation of his inner excitement.

Warwick's annual investment in chips is a large amount, of which tapeout costs account for a part.

Under normal circumstances, after the chip design is completed and the physical layout is submitted, it will take at least several months from the completion of tape-out to mass production, packaging and testing, and the costs incurred in the meantime will also need to be borne by the chip design company.

If Yinglong's powerful simulation verification effect can shorten the tape-out time, it will undoubtedly save some money.

Key chips will be mass-produced as soon as possible, and their own mobile phones equipped with this chip can also be the first to enter the market.

Thinking of this, Ren Yuanwei did not hesitate at all. After calming down his excitement, he quickly ordered: "Contact and communicate with the manufacturer immediately to tape-out the chip as soon as possible."

"It's the chairman." Peng nodded sharply in response.

Since the specification of this chip is seven nanometers, the only one that can produce it is Semiconductor Manufacturing Company.

However, Warwick is also their big customer after all, and without overseas forces intervening at the moment, there won't be any problems.

I believe it won’t be long before 5G mobile phones equipped with this latest high-end chip will enter the market, causing a fierce response in the entire industry.

After all, the chip has improved by 30% from the original planned ideal performance. If benchmarked in this way, it may be able to completely crush the products of other chip companies and occupy the top position in the performance rankings.

And just when Peng Qianqian was about to leave to execute the order, Ren Yuanwei seemed to suddenly think of something, and quickly asked: "By the way, Lao Peng, has this chip been named? I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to continue our company's previous model. .”

Since the chip is developed using domestic chip design software, it must have a new model name to distinguish it from other chips.

After all, this can be regarded as a milestone step in the history of domestic chip development.

Obviously Peng Xiangqian had already considered this matter. Hearing the sound, he stopped and turned around and replied: "Chairman, the design department has temporarily named this chip Tamron."
