Yang Qing shook his head, no matter what their plan was, as long as he successfully transplanted the chip, all calculations would be self-defeating.

It's just that it is far from simple to carry the original chip architecture.

Honghuang's chip uses Honghuang's unique refining method, with the cooperation of spiritual consciousness, although it is still a silicon transistor structure, its structure is completely different from the chip on Blue Star.

The chip on Bluestar is basically a planar structure, and the gate and transistor are all on one layer of plane. Although 3D transistor technology has been applied on a large scale, such as the 3-D Tri-Gate in toothpaste factories, and the FinFET process of Semiconductor Manufacturing, due to the relationship between processing tools, the degree of photolithography and etching cannot be too deep. There are only dozens of atoms, and the transistors formed on this basis can also be regarded as being on a plane.

However, the chips made by the refining method are completely three-dimensional structures, stacked together layer by layer, and then connected with silver wires, which can no longer be distinguished by the process on Blue Star. From the looks of it, its gate pitch is more than one micron, but the three layers together, the process is at most 0.3 micron.

Although the 0.3 micron process is already the last century's process, it is not as outrageous as the 1-micron process. Hong Huang's chip can be as big as the Huolong chip in the rice mobile phone he brought with him at that time. This superposition mode is indispensable. However, on Blue Star, this method of multi-layer assembly cannot be processed at all. After all, the limitation of the photolithography mode can only limit the scope of processing to the surface of the silicon wafer.

Unless one day the atomic-level processing of nano-robots is realized on the Blue Star, the chips on the Blue Star can only advance silently on the road of lithography.

Of course, Yang Qing has no way to make a nanorobot now, and he only has a 90-nanometer pilot line in his hand, but it is already much smaller than the 0.3-micron process. Even if the chip is fully unfolded, the increased area will not be special. Outrageous.

In addition, in the prehistoric times, Yang Qing completely relied on the Huolong chip on the rice mobile phone to redesign the chip. Although after continuous improvements, the performance of the chip has been several times stronger than the Huolong chip, but that is It was realized using the method of refining, and now it is back on the Blue Star. The efficiency of producing chips by refining is too low, and only one piece can be produced at a time, not to mention the consumption of spirit stones. Even if Yang Qing is kept still, Sitting there refining chips, how many chips can be produced in a day?

So even for the sake of improving production efficiency, Yang Qing could only learn the photolithography method for chip production on Bluestar from scratch.

Fortunately, Xiao Ai, the manager of the Internet, was able to collect all the information about chip production in a very short period of time, including the production line adjustments of GlobalFoundries, Four Star, Toothpaste Factory and Semiconductor Manufacturing. production experience.

Although these materials are generally stored in an independent local area network, they still cannot escape Xiao Ai's key supervision. Taking advantage of the gap between them transferring data through the network, they packaged and sent these materials out.

There is a huge amount of information about chip design and production, but after Yang Qing entered the innate, he has made great progress in the control of the brain domain. With the replenishment of spirit stones at any time, the consumption problem that has plagued him for so long has also been solved. Great relief, the speed at which any information is displayed on the monitor is not as fast as Yang Qing's comprehension speed, often after reading this page of information, he already knows the content of the next few pages.

So after two days of delay and studying all the textbooks, papers and materials that can be collected on the Internet, Yang Qing has become a theoretical chip design expert and a senior manager of the lithography production line.

After learning this, looking back at the Huolong chip, he had a new understanding of the structure that he didn't understand originally and could only copy.

With understanding, looking at the chips designed on Honghuang, it suddenly became horrible.

The reason why Honghuang's chip has such a powerful performance is entirely due to the special processing method and the ability of the Frost Rune Array. The natural structure also has great advantages, but now there is still considerable room for improvement.

Within a certain range, the lower the operating temperature of the semiconductor chip, the higher the frequency of normal operation. It is often heard that foreign DIY enthusiasts use liquid nitrogen refrigeration to overclock the general-purpose CPU chip to 8G, 9G, or even exceed Although this is not the norm, it also shows the potential of the chip at low temperatures.

And the Frost Talisman can make the normal operating frequency of the prehistoric chip reach more than 3G. With such a large manufacturing process, it can also control the temperature to only about ten degrees. The assistance of the Frost Talisman is indispensable.

After Yang Qing finished these courses, he had already gotten an introduction to chip design. The next step is the practical operation, and he began to improve the chip he designed in Honghuang.

Of course, it is not that simple to design a chip on Bluestar, because his chip design is modeled on that of Fire Dragon, so it has to face the patent issue from Qualcomm.

If he still plays by himself behind closed doors as before, Yang Qing will not need to pay attention to patents, but this time he is planning to use the chip in VR equipment, which will be released in the future, so the impact of patents cannot be ignored.

Thanks to Xiao Ai's help, all valid patents are placed in the database, including hardware circuit instruction sets, and patents on communication technology. Fortunately, transistor semiconductor chips have been around for more than half a century. The basic patents have already expired, otherwise Yang Qing would need to make up more lessons.

There is no need to worry about the instruction set, because Honghuang's chip is not binary, but a structure called chaotic architecture, which Yang Qing just named. In fact, many functions of the Huolong chip are simulated by software.

However, software simulation itself will take up the computing power of the chip. In most cases, it is more cost-effective to use hardware circuits.

Yang Qing did not use the traditional chip design software EDA. With Xiao Ai's ability, he can copy a software with similar functions in minutes. He is designing the chip with the help of Xiao Ai.

Xiao Ai can almost use the resources of the entire Internet now. She is even more familiar with the terminology of chips than Yang Qing. Put it on.

In fact, in addition to integrating traditional CPU and GPU, the Honghuang chip also integrates memory and storage.

Because the puppet's body is big enough and the frost rune is powerful enough, its memory and storage are quite exaggerated. The memory has reached 10Tb and the storage is 1000Tb. If Yang Qing hadn't been delayed by something at that time, maybe they would The memory and storage are unified, and the storage will be 1000TB at that time, which sounds very bluffing.
