Oh, that changes the perspective. He will be free to contemplate his deeds and dream about his billions
In regard of intellectual property, and this is not meant to be ironic at all. How is China going to master RAM and NAND production without infringing intellectual property rights ?
As long as you have enough money, there is no technology that cannot be bought, but the core technology and the world's leading technology cannot be bought, only created by yourself.
China has mastered RAM and NAND production techs long time ago but not advanced compare to int‘l standard.
CHINA also has deepin PC computer operating system
and dragon 4.0 computer chipset,
works well just not as advanced as Yankees but if Yankee leave us no choice,we have other options.
Huawei is also creating its OWN phone operating system,the hard is to build the eco system.
But once yankees leave us no choice,one chinese gov order that ask all chinese companies to use self made eco system,it would made it possible.
Alibaba has made alipayment system already.
We all know that Huawei K2V3 chipset was bad so was Kirin 910.But since Kirin 920 ,Huawei has catch up and now is leading the mobile phone CPU with Kirin 960.970 980 and 990.
And china own CPU manufactuerZhong xin INTL can make 28 nm chipset not advanced as CHINA taiwan TSMC,but is still progressing.
I am very confident CHINA will catch up eventually,with or without the outer help.
Oh, that changes the perspective. He will be free to contemplate his deeds and dream about his billions
In regard of intellectual property, and this is not meant to be ironic at all. How is China going to master RAM and NAND production without infringing intellectual property rights ?
800,000 yuan is so little,should be 80 millions yuans to make it right!

Huawei's mate series, Honor series, and P series mobile phones are all well-known, but how many chips have Huawei independently developed over the years?
Huawei relies on its own HiSilicon Semiconductor Company to independently develop Huawei's mobile phone's own Kirin chip, Baglong baseband, IPC (network camera) video codec and image signal processing chip, TV chip and NB-IoT chip, etc. User's high rating.
(HiSilicon Semiconductor)
Kirin chip
The most familiar Kirin chips are composed of a whole series, including Kirin 980, Kirin 710, Kirin 970, Kirin 960, Kirin 950, Kirin 659, Kirin 935, Kirin 930, Kirin 928, Kirin 925, Kirin 920, Kirin 910T. Hi3789MK3V2.
When Hisilicon was first established in 2004, it did not involve smartphone chips. In 2009, launched a K3 processor test water smart phone, which is a chip for the open mobile phone market, competing with Spreadtrum and MediaTek, but Huawei did not use this processor at the time, and ultimately it was not a newsletter. MediaTek's opponent. Even if K3 was unsuccessful, Huawei did not give up.
Huawei's chip is truly known as K3V2. Huawei's first quad-core mobile phone Huawei D1 uses the chip. At the time, the K3V2 claimed to be the world's smallest quad-core A9 architecture processor. Its performance was comparable to that of the mainstream processor such as Samsung's Orion Exynos 4412. Although this chip has heat and CPU compatibility issues, it can still be regarded as Huawei mobile phone chip technology. A major breakthrough.
In the 4G era, Huawei released its first eight-core processor, the Kirin 920, which is not only very powerful, but also implements a heterogeneous eight-core big.LITTLE architecture that supports LTE Cat.6, the world's first mobile phone chip to support this technology. The leading mobile phone chip tycoon Qualcomm released one month, the overall performance is comparable to Qualcomm's Snapdragon 805 in the same period. At the recent IFA exhibition in Germany in 2018, Huawei officially released the Kirin 980 as the world's first mass-produced 7nm mobile phone. The chip has dual NPU blessing.
As the latest AI mobile phone SoC (system-on-a-chip) chip, Kirin 980 is the world's first commercial leading TSMC7nm manufacturing process, based on CPU (two super large cores, two large cores, four small cores), GPU, NPU, ISP, DDR design A heterogeneous architecture for system convergence optimization. As early as September 2017, Huawei took the lead in releasing the world's first AI chip, which was equipped with the Cambrian NPU. This time, the Kirin 980 was first equipped with the optimized version of Cambrian 1A, using a dual-core structure. Its image recognition speed is 120% higher than 970.
In addition to image processing, Huawei has also created Flex-Scheduling technology, which uses AI intelligent prediction and scheduling mechanisms. The system can perform intelligent three-level scheduling according to the power consumption of the delivery application, the large core is used for games, the large core is used for social communication, and the small core is used for listening to music. And the Kirin 980 chip has been installed on Mate20, Mate20Pro, Mate20 X and Mate20 RS.
Balong baseband chip
The baseband is simply a module inside the mobile phone. It is responsible for making calls and data access. The 2G/3G/4G/5G network that we are familiar with is related to the baseband. Without a baseband mobile phone, you can't make calls or use mobile data to access the Internet. Huawei's technical strength in baseband is recognized by the state. In 2016, there were 14 companies in the National Science and Technology Progress Award. Huawei is one of them.
When it comes to Haisi's Balong baseband chip, most ordinary people feel that it is strange, but it is indeed one of the core components of the Kirin chip. The Kirin chip includes a baseband processor and an application processor, and Balong is the baseband processor part of Kirin, which directly determines the communication specifications and standards of the HiSilicon chip. At the same time, Balong, as a communication platform for mobile terminals, can also appear in mobile terminals, such as CPE and data cards.
The technical threshold of the baseband chip is very high. Like Apple's self-developed chip, it has been unable to solve the problem of the core baseband chip. It has been using Qualcomm's baseband chip. In recent years, Apple has checked and balanced Qualcomm in the future, and it has also adopted Intel's baseband chips. However, Intel's baseband chips are not as good as Qualcomm, which affects the overall performance of Apple's mobile phones and also affects the consumer experience. In fact, the baseband chip technology capability directly determines the market structure of the communications industry, including smart phones, and only by bringing the baseband chip communication specifications to the top of the world can be among the high-end of mobile phone chips.
Balong baseband chips are the direct manifestation of Huawei's mobile phone chips. The performance of Balong chips continues to improve, making the Kirin series chips begin to lead the world and accelerate the core product advantages and iteration speed of Huawei's terminal services. In the 3G era, Balong launched an Internet card to help Huawei's terminal equipment successfully enter the world's top operators. In the 4G era, the Balong team has become an important promoter of global LTE standards and industrialization with its deep technical accumulation and research and development advantages. Balong chips continue to set a new record in the global LTE4G industry.
As the excellent product of HiSilicon, the Kirin 970 chip, it integrates Balong760, becoming the industry's first mobile system-on-chip (SoC) supporting LTE Cat.18, with a peak download rate of 1.2 Gbps, achieving the first commercial dual-card dual VoLET. The Snapdragon 845 processor of the same level as Qualcomm was released in December of the same year. Samsung's first commercial product, the S9, was released nearly half a year later than Huawei's Mate10, and the half-year period was enough to form a "generation difference." The Balong5G01, the world's first 5G commercial chip released by Huawei in 2018, has intensified this "generation difference" again.
From the design parameters of the chip, the 5G chip based on the 3GPP standard, Balong5G01 supports the mainstream 5G frequency band, including Sub6GHz (low frequency) and mmWave (high frequency), theoretically can achieve data download of up to 2.3Gbps, support NSA ( 5G non-independent networking) and SA (5G independent networking) are two networking modes. Balong5G01 is the first commercial chip released after the 5G standard freeze, marking Huawei's first breakthrough in the commercial bottleneck of 5G terminals, becoming the first company in the world to provide end-to-end 5G solutions for customers.
IPC (Network Camera) video codec and image signal processing chip
Video images are an important source of information we can acquire and exchange, and the key to processing high-resolution massive video data is video encoding and decoding. Currently popular on the network are H.264 and H.265, and H.264 is widely regarded as the most influential industry standard. Because H.264 has high compression, it is suitable for network access. With the development of the Internet, various semiconductor manufacturers have seen a great market prospect for this video codec. Therefore, since 2005, TI, Anba, NXP, Taiwan's TEWELL, Japan's SONY, SHARP and other companies have all set their sights. On the H.264 codec chip.
In the field of video codec chips in these years, upstream manufacturers such as TI, Anba, etc. have never stopped competing, and the technology accumulation of foreign manufacturers has been in a leading position. Relying on the vigorous development of the domestic security market in the past ten years, Haisi has also been working hard in the upstream of the industry to independently develop its own video codec chip technology, gaining a leading position in certain technical fields, and building a market fortress through patents and technological breakthroughs. , forming a competitive advantage.
Huawei HiSilicon's video codec chip system is very comprehensive, including IPC video codec and image signal processing chips, from professional high-definition IPC system-on-chip Hi3518A to high-end industry IPC system-on-chip Hi3559AV100, chip products include consumer market, commercial market and Industry market; resolution from D1 to the latest 8K, frame rate up to 60fps. These comprehensive layouts and high reliability have won the favor of video application manufacturers, surpassing TI's products. At present, it has formed a three-pronged situation of HiSilicon, American Anba, and Japan (the background is Sony and Fujitsu), and TI has no new codec chip since DM8168.
HiSilicon's recently released Hi3559AV100 parameters are powerful, professional 8K Ultra HD Mobile CameraSOC, which provides 8K30/4K120 broadcast-quality image quality digital video recording, supports multi-channel sensor input, supports H.265 encoded output or film-level RAW data. Output, and integrated high-performance ISP processing, while using advanced low-power process and low-power architecture design, provides users with powerful image processing capabilities.
TV chip
In the last section, we mentioned that Hess has accumulated extensive technical experience in the field of video codec technology. These technical experiences have not only succeeded in the chip market of IPC video codec and image signal processing, but also become the leader in the field of TV chips. .
Before 2010, the domestic self-developed chips were basically in the stage of prototype or self-use, and the market acceptance was extremely low. At this time, the proportion of domestic chips is only 1%, and foreign chips account for more than 95%. By 2017, the domestic chip share in the Chinese market has increased by about 60%, while the proportion of foreign chips has dropped to about 35%.
Among them, Huawei Haisi occupies more than half of the domestic market, and its independent ultra-high-definition smart TV core chip has shipped nearly 10 million in 2016, and has entered the supply chain of six major color TV manufacturers, including Sharp, Hisense, Konka and other brands. They are all using HiSilicon chips.
The most important thing about TV chips is video codec technology, and HiSilicon's video codec technology has accumulated enough experience, from Hi3751V510 to the latest Hi3571V811, from 4K entry-level smart TV solutions to 8K smart TV solutions. Support to 8Kx4K@30fps, 4Kx2KHEVC and VP910bit, 120Hz MEMC, and support Dolby ATMOS, occupy an important position in the domestic TV chip industry.
And Huawei's entry into the TV industry news may cause domestic TV companies to abandon the Haisi TV chip. Taking Huawei's mobile phone as an example, HiSili's mobile phone chip technology has basically caught up with mobile phone chip leader Qualcomm, but only Huawei's own mobile phone is used, because other mobile phone factories are worried about the competitive relationship with Huawei, obviously do not want to support competitors, so it is useless. Huawei's mobile phone chip. If Huawei enters the TV field, the same domestic TV companies are likely to abandon Hisilicon's TV chips and switch to other chip companies' products. Because if they continue to use Huawei's chip, it may lead to their own research and development progress is known to Huawei, which is conducive to Huawei's TV business and competition, which is not what they hope to see.
NB-IoT chip
With the development of the Internet of Things, the existing connection technology can not only meet the rapidly increasing number of connected devices, but also occupy more resources. Therefore, the low-power wide area network (LPWAN) developed in recent years has gained widespread attention, and among many low-power WAN technologies, NB-loT (narrowband Internet of Things) technology is highly concerned.
We are entering an era of Internet of Everything, and the entire communications industry realizes that this is a huge opportunity. Therefore, major chip design companies have been studying the use of narrowband LTE technology to carry IoT connections a few years ago. Technology evolution, in 2015, 3GPP officially named this technology NB-IoT. This technology belongs to the narrowband part of 5G technology. It is built on cellular network and consumes about 180KHz bandwidth. It can be deployed directly on GSM network, UMTS network or LTE network due to its low power consumption, stable connection, low cost and excellent architecture optimization. Has received much attention.
Moreover, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology of China issued a notice on “Promoting the Construction and Development of Mobile Internet (NB-IoT) in June 2017. A total of 14 measures were issued, requiring the strengthening of NB-IoT standards and technology research to create a complete industry. The system optimizes the NB-IoT application policy environment and creates good sustainable development conditions. Under the great attention of the country, it can be seen that the development of NB-IoT is a huge business opportunity.
As the promoter of the NB-IoT standard, Huawei and Qualcomm are also two important players of the NB-IoT chip. Huawei has been investing in NB-IoT chip development since 2014. In 2015, it launched a pre-standard based chip prototype. After the announcement of the NB-IoT standard, Huawei quickly launched the NB-IoT commercial chip Boudica120, and then the Boudica150 (increased support for 1800MHz/2100MHz) was used in small batches in the third quarter.
From the application point of view, Huawei's NB-IoT chip solution can be used for smart water, smart gas, smart parking, smart home appliances and so on. In terms of smart water, Huawei has cooperated with Shenzhen, Yingtan and Fuzhou. In terms of smart gas, Huawei United Telecom and Shenzhen Gas (5.380, 0.01, 0.19%) and Beijing Gas have launched pilot projects.
Routing chip and "betting" future server chip
A few days ago, Huawei’s glory in a press conference in Beijing announced the routing chip “Ling Wei”. In the market, the routing chips were basically supplied by Qualcomm, MediaTek, Marvell and Broadcom. Now Huawei enters this field and will inevitably have more or less impact on these suppliers, but this is Huawei's improvement. The chip must study the strength of the road.
According to the official introduction, the Lingxiao 5651 is a quad-core 1.4GHz top-of-line routing processor with up to 5Gbps data forwarding capability, which can easily achieve full-rate forwarding of Gigabit WiFi and Gigabit Ethernet ports, and also supports more than 800Mbps. USB data transfer can provide users with high-speed network sharing. For the dual-band WiFi chip Linghao 1151, it has the characteristics of strong anti-interference ability. For IoT equipment, Lingxiao 1151 built two information highways, one for data connection and one for IoT equipment connection, to ensure that users' operations can get faster feedback. In addition, in order to cope with the experience of mobile game, the Lingxiao 1151 adopts a number of new technologies, such as game message recognition, early allocation of air interface, low latency rate adjustment, small traffic QoS guarantee, etc., with EMUI9.0, mobile phone and routing. Can enter the game mode at the same time, the rate is more stable.
According to the latest report, Huawei also officially announced its fourth-generation Arm server chip "Hi1620". This is the industry's first data center processor built on a 7nm process and is scheduled for release in 2019. According to the official introduction, the parameters of the chip design are very strong, providing Huawei with a powerful weapon to seize the cloud service market in the future.
