Good news from the Chinese space station! Recently, the Hong Kong media "South China Morning Post" released an exciting news. While China has made new breakthroughs in its space industry, China is using its "Tiangong" space station to test various chip processors and achieve new technological advantages. In contrast, the 250nm process chips used in space in the United States have been outdated for many years, while China already has more than 20 high-performance chips in the 28nm to 16nm process range, and there are many more chipmakers waiting in the future for space testing. China's goal is to develop high-performance chips that can maintain stable and reliable operation in orbit for a long time, which is undoubtedly a challenging task.
According to reports, China's space station can currently test more than 100 computer processors simultaneously, and more than 20 new high-performance chips have been tested, which are more advanced than those used in space by other countries. In addition, China also has a large number of deep ultraviolet lithography machines, which can produce large quantities of chips at low cost.
At the same time, the chips used by NASA are still at the level of technology from 30 years ago, which is very embarrassing for the director of NASA. China's self-built Tiangong space station has provided great convenience for China's space research and development. In contrast, the International Space Station, while it can conduct similar experiments, has a rule that restricts many countries. The ISS stipulates that the country conducting the experiment must make publicly available valid details, and these things are often highly classified. Chinese aerospace engineers hope to improve the sophistication and prudence of related technologies by adopting artificial intelligence technology to meet the challenges of the space environment.
China's continuous breakthroughs in chip technology mean that China's rise in this field is unstoppable. However, the United States is not willing to give up. The U.S. Department of Commerce introduced a number of measures against China's chip industry in 2023 in an attempt to limit the development of China's high-tech industry in order to maintain its dominant position in the high-tech field. China's countermeasures are already beginning to show, and China's export controls on germanium-gallium materials are already feeling the pressure on the United States.
Finally, it is worth noting that ASEAN has replaced the EU as China's largest partner. This is due to the shift of Chinese industry and investment to the ASEAN region, which in turn imports a large amount of equipment from China. This phenomenon reflects China's rising position in the world, and also provides strong support for China's increasing influence in the global chip industry.
Summary of the main points of the article: China has made a major breakthrough in the field of space chips, showing strong scientific and technological strength. The United States faces the challenge of China's rise, but China is also taking active measures to respond to American repression. In the future, China is expected to play a more important role in the global chip industry. Final question: How do you think China's rise in the chip sector will affect the global technology landscape?
