Chapter 279 Breaking the Curse of Storage Wall

Scientific research that deeply touches the frontiers of disciplines always has irresistible magic, which always makes people fascinated and meditative.

Today's chips have a mismatch in "storage" and "compute" performance. Storage walls lead to high memory access delays and low efficiency. Under the von Neumann architecture, data transmission causes serious power consumption losses, seriously affecting the chip's computing power. If it could Breaking the curse of the storage wall, the computing power of the chip will increase exponentially.

Chips with powerful computing power will definitely profoundly change the face of the world and profoundly affect human life style.

Neither DRAM nor Flash can break the storage wall. The topic of researching the technology and direction of next-generation memory chips has already caused extensive discussion in the international academic community.

As early as 1971, Professor Cai Shaotang of the University of California, Berkeley, predicted memristor based on electronic theory. He believed that in addition to resistors, capacitors and inductors, there is a fourth basic component of the circuit.

When it comes to passive electronic components such as memristors, some of its characteristics are like resistors. It can generate and maintain a safe current through a device, but the difference between memristors and resistors is that memristors After the power is turned off, the amount of charge that has passed through can still be "remembered". The two sets of memristors can produce the same function as transistors, but are smaller.

Around 2000, researchers discovered resistance changes under the action of electric fields in thin films of various binary metal oxides and perovskite structures, and applied them to the next generation of high-speed non-volatile memory resistive memories.

This year, this kind of research began to move from laboratory attempts to industrialization. Unity Semiconductor announced that it will make 2010Gbit non-volatile resistive RAM in 64. They are looking for an IDM to cooperate to build a factory to manufacture this product. It is based on the most common silicon A new type of memory chip developed by Oxide.

The rapid development of science makes people excited!
Professor Lu Wei went to Shanghai this time to discuss this topic with senior professors from the School of Microelectronics of Fudan University. They wanted to break the curse of the storage wall together.

Once a new memory chip is born, it will surely break this storage wall, promote the rapid development of large computing power chips, and lay a solid foundation for the future development of artificial driving and AI industries.

That will be an exciting innovation in the chip industry.

Xin Tong's research direction was not clear for his upcoming postgraduate life. After listening to Professor Lu Wei's guidance, he felt like he was enlightened and decided to invest in the research of memory chips.

"Thank you Professor Lu for your guidance. After I arrive at Tsinghua University, I must learn more about memory chips!"

"Very good!" Professor Lu Wei turned his head and looked at Xin Tong affectionately.

He was also full of expectations for this junior who was thirsty for knowledge.

After speaking, he took out a business card holder from his pocket and handed a business card to Xin Tong: "This is my Business Card. It has my contact information on it. If you don't know about the memory chip, you can always ask I."

"Thank you!" Xin Tong solemnly took Professor Lu's business card, as if he had gotten a map where he could find martial arts secrets, and was secretly ecstatic.

As they were talking, a slender flight attendant came over pushing a trolley full of drinks: "Coffee? Tea?"

She asked softly while patiently distributing drinks to the passengers.

"Little girl, can you speak Chinese properly?" The old woman sitting by the aisle glanced at the stewardess.

What foreign language are these people with yellow skin and black hair talking about?
"Grandma, what would you like to drink? Coffee or green tea?" The flight attendant seemed to realize something, bent down and asked softly.

"A bottle of water sells for a sky-high price on the high-speed rail. How much does one of your drinks cost?" The old woman raised her head and looked at the drinks on the car, then took out her wallet from her pocket.

The memory of being stabbed while riding the high-speed train was still deeply imprinted in her mind. If it was too expensive, she planned to endure it a little longer.

More than ten hours passed with a little patience. Her childhood came from hard times.

"Grandma, the drinks on the plane are free!"

"Ah? It's free! Then bring me a cup of green tea, a cup of Coke, and a cup of coffee." The old woman pointed to the various beverage bottles on the trolley and said.As soon as she finished her words, the surrounding passengers were startled. Everyone stared at her with wide eyes, as if they had seen an alien. Several passengers on the study tour even covered their mouths and giggled. stand up.

"Then give me a cup of green tea! I just want a cup of green tea!" The old woman seemed to realize something and immediately changed her tune.

After pouring green tea for the old woman, the stewardess looked at Xin Tong: "Coffee? Tea?"

On international flights to the United States, the information is broadcast in both Chinese and English, but the communication in the cabin is still very international.

"Coffee!" Xin Tong ordered a cup of coffee. Coffee wakes him up after a long flight.

After drinking the drinks, the passengers seemed to be tired, and the sound of snoring could be heard faintly.

The plane flew gracefully in the sky. Xin Tong looked out through the porthole window. When it was cloudless, what he saw was the blue ocean.

That blue liquid is the tears of the sky.

It is also a drop of tears from a lover!
The journey of more than ten hours was very long. If it weren't for the one she loved, Xin Tong wouldn't have been able to go to New York.

Professor Lu also fell asleep on his seat, but Xin Tong couldn't sleep. His mind kept thinking about Irene's face. She was noble and beautiful. She came from a billionaire family. She could definitely find a Jewish banker. Descendants live a luxurious life.

Choosing Xin Tong in 2002 meant choosing poverty and a rugged life path.

Thank you, Eileen. Choosing Xin Tong means choosing the future. I will definitely not let you down.

Today, I set foot on the soil of the United States with [-] million and full of pride. I want to boldly woo you.

Thinking of [-] million, he took out his wallet from his pocket and took out the photo with Dr. Li Du.

Looking at the photo in his hand, Xin Tong had mixed feelings. Dr. Li, one hundred million can scare 99.99% of the people in the world, but you can't drive away Xin Tong, who was born in a poor family!

Today, I finally did it!
The journey took more than ten hours, flying across the Pacific Ocean, the largest ocean in the world, from the Eastern Hemisphere of the Earth to the Western Hemisphere of the Earth, and the journey was dusty.

When the plane slowly landed at JFK International Airport, Xin Tong walked out of the cabin and walked towards the shuttle bus.

A heat wave is coming. In July, the temperature is very high in every corner of the northern hemisphere, leaving people with nowhere to escape.

Seven or eight square dancing ladies in red skirts, holding paper fans in their hands, posed in front of the shuttle bus and took a group photo.

Knowing that Xin Tong came here just for her, Irene ran to the airport very early to wait for her lover. When Xin Tong's tall figure appeared at the international exit, the mixed-race beauty's heart beat wildly, and her blue pupils expanded rapidly. , she couldn't help but fly towards Xin Tong.

Xin Tong hugged her in his arms.

In the sea of ​​people, they kissed each other passionately.

Time seems to still stay on the basketball court on Christmas Eve when we met in 2002.

On that day, Xin Tong led the FOL Engineering Department to win the championship of the entire factory and became the most dazzling star of Ming Yueguang throughout the year.
