Chapter 65 Who developed it? [Seeking a recommended monthly ticket]

Because Huawei's previous high-end chip Kirin series were basically produced by TSMC, so it can be regarded as a major customer of the other party, and naturally there will be no delay in the manufacturing, packaging and testing of Tamron's chips.

Moreover, this time it is an order of up to 5000 million pieces.

So after the fab got the physical layout of the Tamron chip, it immediately started the normal chip manufacturing process.

It is also worth mentioning that due to the powerful functions of Yinglong's chip design software, the maturity and stability of the chip is guaranteed, and the final number of tapes for trial production is not very large.

After testing, it is determined that the integrated circuit design is successful and does not need to be optimized, and a large number of production packaging and testing are directly carried out.

to this end.

The fab also deliberately coordinated the orders in its hands to release more production capacity to produce Tamron chips, in order to complete the 5000 million chips within the contract time.

The reason why Ren Yuanwei decided to produce so many Tamron chips in the first batch is not only because he is confident enough in his own chips, but also to prepare for the layout in advance. After all, once Tamron chips enter the market, it is bound to shake the long-standing status of overseas chip companies. Baobuqi will face the same dilemma as Zhongxing.

After experiencing the development of domestic chip design software this time, Ren Yuanwei has more confidence in the development of high-end lithography machines.

There are companies like Future Technology.

With its leading technology in the field of artificial intelligence.

Maybe three to five years.

It is even possible for domestic lithography machines to develop from the original production of 28nm chips to seven nanometers and five nanometers in two years, completely entering the field of high-end lithography machines.

Therefore, Huawei must ensure a stable supply of its own high-end chips during this period of time.

As time passed, when the Tamron chip that had completed production, packaging and testing was shipped back by Huawei on a chartered plane, the company's top executives also began to plan for the chip launch.

As the first domestic high-end mobile phone chip developed with domestic chip design software, Tenglong is destined to attract the attention of various forces at home and abroad, and it represents a very commemorative event.

In addition, they will be the second company in the world to release 5G chips.

This alone has killed other domestic mobile phone manufacturers.

……

Wednesday, October 2019, 6.

Shenzhen.

The scene of the Tenglong chip conference in the Huawei headquarters building.

Although the press conference hadn't started yet, the scene was already full of major news media, including reporters from the main station.

It is conceivable that tomorrow this matter will definitely spread on the Internet in various circles at an explosive speed.

It is enough to prove the importance of Warwick this time.

"Old Peng, I will leave this press conference to you to host."

"Don't worry, Director Ren." Peng Xiangqian, who was wearing a light blue suit in the backstage lounge, immediately assured Ren Yuanwei's explanation with confidence: "Our Tenglong chip will be heard throughout the industry soon."

Soon.

When the press conference officially begins.

I saw Peng Xiangqian walking to the stage confidently, and a line of words was displayed on the large rectangular screen behind him.

The most powerful 5G mobile phone chip-Tenglong 910 was officially launched.

"Welcome everyone to attend this press conference. This time Huawei sincerely launched the first 5G high-end mobile phone chip Tamron 910, and it is also the first chip designed using domestic EDA."

For the news media present, they are very aware of Huawei's attention. The launch of its own 5G chip this time will definitely arouse great enthusiasm.

So basically arrive at the venue in advance.

Before the press conference started, the title and content of the news were already in my mind.

But to their surprise, there were other discoveries.

As a journalist, the most important thing is to be able to keenly capture the key information in a certain passage or something.

Domestic EDA software.

Although the chips released by Warwick in the past are also among the top in the world, the design software that can be used is the design software of the three major overseas companies.

Now the new chip is actually designed with domestic EDA, which means that the chip design software has been localized, and the functions seem to be no worse than overseas ones.

This news hotspot is much more interesting than the chip itself.

So when Peng Xiangqian introduced the situation of the Tamron chip in detail according to the press conference process, the major media below could not help but move around.

They whispered their work to each other.

"Try to refer the topic to the chip design software later, and learn more about the situation."

"This is definitely the headlines on the front page, and our Beijing News must publish it."

"There must be an interview after the briefing."

"This trip is really not in vain."

……

Naturally, Peng Xiangqian didn't care about the thoughts of these journalists, and he finally breathed a sigh of relief when the one-and-a-half-hour press conference was over.

In addition to introducing the powerful capabilities and usage effects of the Tamron chip, this press conference also clearly stated that the 5G flagship mobile phone equipped with the Tamron chip will be launched soon, and you can make an appointment to rush to experience it first.

It is equivalent to throwing out a gimmick in advance.

of course.

Peng Xiangqian was also surrounded by the media for interviews, and the content of the inquiries all pointed to domestic chip design software.

Although Peng Xiangqian was more inclined to talk more about Tamron chips, he couldn't hold back the enthusiasm of the crowd, so he revealed that this domestic chip design software is called Yinglong EDA, and clearly stated that it was not developed by Huawei.

But just this information made the news media present very excited. After leaving the press conference, they rushed to produce a press release almost on the same day.

When the news about Tenglong chips and domestic chip design software was first released on the official accounts of major platform websites, it soon showed a trend of participating in the entire domestic network.

In addition, the financial and other channels of the main station also carried out special reports on this, and its popularity was quickly opened up.

Under related articles and videos, netizens talking about this matter can be seen everywhere.

But what everyone is most concerned about is who is the development company of this Yinglong EDA?
"It's really a surprise. I didn't expect that we have developed domestic chip design software, and there was no news before."

"The confidentiality work is done too well."

"Who knows which company developed this Yinglong EDA, it's too awesome."

"Judging from the official data given by Tamron Chip, it should be able to reach the ranks of the world's top chips, which shows that the functions of the design software are not inferior to overseas ones, but the specific situation still has to wait for the actual measurement data."

"I originally planned to buy Pingguo, but now I feel like I can wait for this Tamron chip."

"Anyway, I'm not very optimistic. Overseas chip design software has been developed for so many years. Even if we develop it, it must be incomparable in many functions."

"Is there a possibility that this chip design software was actually developed by Huawei, and he just didn't say it on purpose?"

……

at the same time.

Xinyue City.

Inside the office of the president of the future technology company.

Xu Lei, who watched the video replay of Huawei's press conference the next day, also made a decision to officially launch the Dragon EDA in response to the hot discussion on the Internet about Dragon EDA.
