Chapter 50 47: Tape-out Mode
3 pm.

After looking at the computer all day, Han Chen searched his temples.

His eyes were already a little tired at this time.

Han Chen stood up from his chair and did some stretching exercises, then took out a bottle of Happy Water from the refrigerator and drank it.

"Da~da~da~da"

At this time, Shi Ming's mother brought a woman to the door of the study. The woman was wearing a black professional suit.

The oval-faced ponytail wears a pair of rimless glasses and carries a Donkey brand shoulder bag on his shoulder.

The woman has good facial features but is not very beautiful, but her height of 1.7 meters is very tall.

"Master, this is Miss Xue who said she came to see you." Shi Ming's mother introduced.

"Miss Xue, please sit over here." Han Chen waved his hand towards the sofa and said.

"Thank you, Mr. Han." Xue Yan smiled politely.

Xue Yan followed Han Chen to the sofa and sat down.

"Miss Xue, would you like tea or coffee?" Shi Ming's mother asked.

"Auntie, give me a cup of coffee." Xue Yan said with a smile.

"Miss Xue" Before Han Chen could finish speaking, the phone on the desk rang.

"Sorry, let me take a call." Han Chen said and walked to the desk.

[Caller: Gulina]

"Nana, what's wrong?" Han Chen asked after answering the phone.

"Husband, I am in Shenzhen City now. I missed you so I flew over to see you. Where are you now?" Gulina asked.

"I'm currently receiving guests. I'll give you my address and you can take a taxi." Han Chen replied.

Han Chen was not disgusted with Gu Lina's Thousand Miles Send and Thousand Miles Raid.

After all, he only has Gulina as his girlfriend now, if he has other girlfriends.

Maybe Han Chen wouldn't like the other party's surprise inspection.

"Okay, then send me the address quickly." Gulina said in despair.

Han Chen didn't drive to pick her up in person, which really made her a little disappointed, but she thought that she came here by surprise.

Gulina couldn't blame Han Chen.

Han Chen copied the address and sent it to Gulina.

"Mom Shi, we have a guest coming over later, please cook more food tonight." Han Chen looked at Shi Ming's mother and said.

"Okay." Shi Ming's mother nodded.

Han Chen returned to the desk and sat down on the sofa again.

"Miss Xue, how should the procedure go?" Han Chen asked.

Xue Yan took out a contract from her bag and placed it on the table.

"Mr. Han, this is our company's confidentiality agreement. This confidentiality agreement is mainly used to protect your rights and interests.

Our company will not disclose any information about you or your products without your permission.

You can safely hand over the chip source files to us.

You can take a look at this agreement first. "Xue Yan said.

Han Chen took the confidentiality agreement from Xue Yan and read it carefully.

Overall, TSMC's confidentiality services are very good.

After reading it, Han Chen filled in his name on the document, and then signed his name on the document.

"Mr. Han, are you personally doing chip tape-out?" Xue Yan asked curiously.

Logically speaking, the company's business should be filled in with the company's name and seal.

But Han Chen filled in his personal name.

"The chip patent belongs to me personally, and of course I will sign the confidentiality agreement. After the tape-out is confirmed, the company will sign it," Han Chen explained. "So that's it. If that's the case, there will be no problem." Xue Yan replied.

It's not that she's afraid that Han Chen is a liar. After all, living in such a large manor, Han Chen can't be a liar.

"How long does the assessment take?" Han Chen asked.

"Usually a week." Xue Yan replied.

"Then what should I do next?" Han Chen asked.

“I will send you a website and account number when you get back, and you can just upload it to our website through the Internet.

For customer safety, we cannot take the chip source files directly from you.

Mr. Han, please keep this document.

I wonder how many chips Mr. Han plans to produce? "Xue Yan said after checking the file.

Xue Yan said and handed another document to Han Chen.

"Currently, we only need [-] pieces of this. When business starts, the demand will be much greater than now." Han Chen replied.

"Mr. Han, there is only [-] pieces, so I suggest you adopt the mwp model." Xue Yan said.

There are two modes for chip tape-out, one is fullmark mode and the other is called mwp mode.

The first one is suitable for large companies like Intel, because the chip designs of these large companies are relatively complex.

MWP is a bit like the group purchase model. The chips produced in this model are relatively simple. Many users will use the same mask, and the manufacturing cost will be much cheaper.

Fabs can even manufacture different chips on the same wafer.

"My chip requires a total of 113 masks. The mwp mode is not suitable for my chip." Han Chen shook his head.

Xue Yan was also very surprised when she heard this answer.

Only a few companies in the world require so many masks to manufacture chips.

Putting aside the performance of the chip, this company is definitely a potential company if it can develop such a chip.

"Miss Xue, your coffee." Shi Ming's mother placed the coffee in front of Xue Yan and said.

At this time, Shi Ming's mother felt the remote control in her pocket vibrating.

Because Han Chen's family is relatively large, he made a wireless remote control with a vibration function.

No matter where Shi Ming's mother is, she can know as long as someone rings the doorbell.

"Thank you, Auntie." Xue Yan said.

Xue Yan picked up the coffee and took a sip. She liked the mellow taste very much. The coffee at Han Chen's house was all imported.

Although Han Chen doesn't drink much coffee, he definitely buys the best one.

"I didn't expect the chips developed by Mr. Han's company to be so complicated," Xue Yan said.

"Manager Xue, does TSMC have to wait until August to start production?" Han Chen asked.

"The demand for 28 nanometers is relatively large, and orders are basically fully booked, so they must be scheduled until August." Xue Yan said with a smile.

"Then we can only wait until August and see how you evaluate the price first," Han Chen said.

"Mr. Han, my mission has been completed. I won't stay any longer. I will go back early and help you arrange the order." Xue Yan put down the coffee cup and said.

"In this case, I won't keep you." Han Chen said.

"Then I'll go back first." Xue Yan said.

"Ma Shi is downstairs, just ask her to open the door for you. I won't see you off if I have something to do here." Han Chen said.

"Okay, Mr. Han." Xue Yan put the documents in her bag and said.

Han Chen sent her to the door of the study and ignored her.

At this time, Shi Ming's mother was greeting another guest at the door of the villa.

A man in a suit and leather tie was walking towards the villa.

Xue Yan also saw each other when she came to the door. The moment the two met, she couldn't help but frown.
