"The new chip has been designed, and now the company's team is impacting the manufacturing process of 7Nm."
"It is estimated that there will be progress next year and mass production should be achieved the year after."
The scientific research team of Huateng company was established by Zhang Rujin, who is particularly interested in chip R & D and manufacturing.
Now, Huateng company has basically mastered the process of producing 10nm chips. In the next time, in addition to designing chips, it will rush to the 7Nm chip process.
Tong Hao trusts Zhang Rujin's team. According to the current global semiconductor manufacturing technology, Zhang Rujin's team has been at the forefront.
Compared with the top TSMC and Samsung, Huateng is only a little behind.
According to the current level of TSMC in tonghaoyuan space time, TSMC will realize 7Nm mass production technology in Q1 of 2017, and can accept global orders in the second half of the year.
According to Zhang Rujin's current plan, Huateng will not be able to realize mass production of 7Nm technology until the second half of 2017.
However, Tong Hao doesn't worry too much. After all, according to the current world development trend, it will take 18 years to popularize 7Nm processor chips on flagship mobile phones.
At that time, relying on the relationship with Huateng company, Tianyu company will become the first mobile phone manufacturer to obtain 7Nm process chips in China.
But this is two years later, and what Tong Hao cares about now is the result of the research and design of Huateng Institute this year.
At the end of last year, the Huateng team brought the Huateng g820, the mid-range g700, and a new series of x85 processor chips.
Naturally, the strength of Huateng g820 is almost the same as that of Qualcomm's Huolong K800. The iron triangle composed of the full blood version of g820 even surpasses the overclocking version of Huolong k801.
As the first generation product of X series, x85 processor chip is called midrange God u, and its strength is naturally not weaker than any midrange processor chip.
Although the response of K700 is small, its performance is regular, and the topyan series equipped with it has not been delayed by this chip.
According to the development direction of Huateng this year, at least three processor chips will be launched this year, facing the mobile phone market next year.
"This is the six processor chips designed by the company this year! Including three G series, two X series! And a new series processor!"
Zhang Rujin also took out the achievements of this year's team and designed six processor chips.
The team originally planned to produce only three processor chips in the first half of the year, but no more than four.
However, since the news that the lithography machine can be introduced and the production line can be expanded, the team has designed several more processor chips in order to expand the market next year.
Tong Hao was also slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the other team would design so many processor chips this time.
Looking at the samples of processor chips sent by Zhang Rujin, Tong Hao was also very curious about the differences between the six processor chips designed this time.
After all, if the performance and positioning of the produced processor are the same, it will be in vain.
Huateng's G Series this time has launched processor chips for three different gears, namely g830 processor chip, Huateng G710 processor chip and Huateng G610 processor chip for medium and low-end.
This time, the X series has launched two processor chips with different gears, x95 and x95t processor chips.
In addition, this time the company also produced another series of processor chips, Huateng Z100 processor chip.
Tong Hao plans to start with the most familiar G-Series processor.
The digital arrangement of G series processor chips of Huateng company is the same as that of Qualcomm in the bit plane occupied by Tong Hao.
8 represents high-end processors, and Huateng g830 is naturally the fourth generation of G series processors.
According to Zhang Rujin's explanation, the two large cores of this processor are directly upgraded from the original third-generation processor A73 to A75. After using the same 10 nm process, the performance of this processor is naturally much better than that of g820.
As the fourth generation processor chip, Huateng g830 can easily reach about 350000 points. If it is equipped with the iron triangle, it can basically be stable at about 380000 points.
Tong Hao is still very satisfied with such achievements. After all, the third and fourth generation processors use 10 nm technology, and it is naturally impossible to open too many gaps in terms of performance improvement.
After Zhang Rujin introduced the g830, a high-end processor, he did not choose to directly introduce the G710, but introduced another new series of processor Z100 processor.
"This Z100 processor is similar to the g830 processor, but its small core lags behind the g830, but its overall AI computing strength is stronger than the g830 processor!"
Zhang Rujin introduced this new series of processors very seriously. This new series of processors can be said to be a processor chip with performance reaching the level of sub flagship processor, but stronger than Huateng g830 in other aspects.
The performance score of Z100 processor is also good. The overall score can reach more than 330000, which is not much worse than that of Huateng g830.
Hearing Zhang Rujin's explanation, Tong Hao looked at the two processor chips of Huateng g830 and Z100 on the desktop and suddenly thought of the two processor chips of his era.
Fire dragon 865 and Tianji 1000+
Obviously, the Huateng g830 has a stronger comprehensive level and is more suitable for serving as a high-end processor. Although the Z100 is also very good, it can only be regarded as a sub flagship processor.
"Yes, this processor can be kept for a certain role in the future!"
Tong Hao did not feel the redundancy of this processor for the sudden emergence of a new series of processors. On the contrary, he felt that the emergence of this processor would be more conducive to the next plan of Huateng company.
After introducing the Z100 flagship processor, Zhang Rujin continued to introduce the middle and low-end processor chips of the company's most mainstream G series.
G710, as the second terminal processor chip of Huateng G series, has been upgraded this time.
G710 is also made of 10 nm technology, and its performance score can reach about 200000, basically reaching the level of g810 the year before last.
Of course, this time, Huateng also focused on the low-end chip market, and made Huateng's first processor chip for low-end mobile phones, Huateng G610, using 14 nm technology.
As a processor for the low-end mobile phone market, the performance of Huateng G610 is relatively ordinary, and its performance score has only reached 100000, one of which has reached the Huateng G800 processor of the previous year.
It can be said that this year, Huateng has enough production lines and the ability to produce more processor chips.
At the same time, it also prompted Huateng to compete for the market with Qualcomm and Samsung's processor chip manufacturers.
Huateng wants to design three different routes: high-end, middle-end and low-end this year.
The high-end and middle-end basically compete with Qualcomm Samsung, while the low-end is to compete with MediaTek.
Of course, Huateng naturally also launched different series of processor chips to face different users.
The newly developed Z series processor chip has basically reached the flagship level.
Tong Hao attaches great importance to the Z series processor.
In Tong Hao's mind, most of the high-end G-Series processor chips produced by Huateng company in the future are used in their own flagship machines, and a few are sold to partners.
The host that Huateng and Qualcomm Samsung really seize the high-end machine market is this z-series processor chip.
Tong Hao even plans to contact the giants of domestic mobile phone manufacturers such as rice, blue factory and green factory and sell them this processor at that time.
Of course, the blue-green factory is the most suitable object. After all, the current blue-green factory has not had in-depth cooperation with Qualcomm. The high-end processor chips produced by Qualcomm are basically sold to rice and Samsung.
The current blue-green factory can't get the chips of Qualcomm's flagship processor at all. In Tong Hao's opinion, if the Z100 is slightly cheaper, it will naturally be favored by the blue-green manufacturers.
