Huawei is an enterprise that attaches great importance to technological innovation. As the world's leading smartphone manufacturer, Huawei has been exploring more advanced chip processes to provide users with more efficient and stable products. However, at a recent exchange meeting, Huawei's Kirin chip team put forward an unexpected point of view: process is no longer the most important. They believe that the decisive factor is the chip architecture and algorithm optimization of the future.
This view is also supported by many industry experts. They believe that although the chip process is very important to the performance of the chip, the current major chip companies have reached the bottleneck of the process and it is difficult to further improve. Comparatively speaking, chip architecture and algorithm optimization are areas with more room for development, and they can play a greater performance potential.
What's even more remarkable is that Huawei's Kirin 7nm chip has achieved an excellent reputation in the domestic and foreign markets. At present, the domestic chip market is still dominated by the 3nm process, but the Kirin 7nm chip performs very well in all aspects, no less than the same level of 3nm chip. This fact reaffirms the Huawei team's point that craftsmanship is not the decisive factor.
In fact, Huawei's point of view has also triggered a lot of thinking and discussion in the industry. People are beginning to re-examine the traditional chip design concept, and focus more on architecture and algorithm optimization. More importantly, this point of view may lead the development direction of future chip design and promote the chip industry to enter a higher stage of development.
Overall, Huawei's view has brought profound enlightenment to the global chip industry. It tells us that technological innovation is always the core driving force for enterprise development, and only by continuous exploration and attempt, can we grasp the opportunities and challenges of the future.
