The first domestic 5g chip will be launched in the second half of this year
Recently, "China core" is still a popular topic. In response, Zeng Xuezhong, global executive vice president of Ziguang group and CEO of Ziguang zhanrui, said that the next 10 years will be the era of artificial intelligence, 5g and AI will usher in an explosion, and the driving force of technological change will also come from chips.
He stressed that no matter how the economy develops in the next 10 years, chips are indispensable. &"If steel is the foundation of the industrial age and chip is the foundation of the digital age, the whole semiconductor industry will determine the development trend of the future world. ”
According to the special report on China's chip industry market in 2018q1 released by AI media consulting, China's IC output in 2017 has reached 156.46 billion pieces, an increase of 18.7% over 2016. With the strengthening of national attention to the chip industry and the increasing investment in R & D resources by enterprises, institutes and other institutions in the future, China's IC output will continue to grow rapidly in the future.
China is currently the largest and fastest growing market in the world, and Chinese enterprises have already occupied two seats in the top ten chip design rankings in 2017 & Ziguang zhanrui and Huawei hisilic.
It is understood that from 2G, 3G to 4G to the current 5g, Ziguang zhanrui has always adhered to independent innovation. In 2018, zhanrui launched the sc9850kh chip platform, which is China's first truly commercial independent domestic CPU chip, and also China's first 4G chip platform with independent intellectual property rights embedded in key CPU technologies. At the same time, zhanrui also launched the first 8-core artificial intelligence chip platform sc9863, which lowered the threshold for mass consumers to enter 5g and AI.
Zeng Xuezhong said that chip design is the top of the whole chip industry, and its contribution to the industry is 1:10:100. A chip of 1 yuan can leverage the value of 100 yuan in the industry, which is why chip design is important as a leader in the integrated circuit industry. The world is flat and parallel. In the future, the global semiconductor market should develop in parallel with each other.
It is reported that this year, zhanrui launched the "5g chip global leading strategy" in the research and development of 5g. It has successively reached strategic cooperation with China Mobile, Intel, Huawei, Shide technology, rod and Schwartz. It plans to launch the first 5g chip in 2018 and commercialize the first 5g mobile phone platform in the second half of 2019, so as to realize synchronous marketing with the deployment of 5g mobile network.
