Himfr.com Reports Intel, The Crisis In The Transition To A Low-power Atom Technological Breakthrough

3D Internet, cloud computing, intelligent micro-robot ..

. ... in June of this year in the United States, California, held in 2009 Intel Research Day, which is the most heard words. However, in a "futuristic" atmosphere, the reality faction Ling Dynamic (Atom) chips will never be forgotten.

It is in this study Day, Intel's Corporate Technology Group (CTG) officially changed its name to the Intel Research Institute (IntelLabs). October 12, the official debut of Intel China Research Institute is a subsidiary of the five sectors IntelLabs only a geographic name laboratory.

"Intel's investment in the factory, the decade is the sum of 51.6 billion U.S. dollars, in the R & D investment, the sum was 46.5 billion U.S. dollars a decade now, Intel's plant was reduced, while the R & D unchanged." October 12, Intel's global Vice President, Chief Technology Officer, Intel Senior Fellow and Director, Institute of Justin (JustinRattner) shows these two figures is intended to express the meaning is clear: Intel is contradictory transformation.

To technological breakthroughs out of the crisis

In China, Intel closed down earlier this year in Shanghai Pudong, assembly and test plant, part of the production transferred to lower-cost assembly and test factory in Chengdu, Intel's "reorientation" program subject to debate.

"Is an adjustment not to cut" In fact, adjusted the size of the Chengdu plant still grows. However, this incident embodies the ambivalence of Intel Adjustment. Intel does not want layoffs, do not want to reduce the scale of the factory, but the face of financial crisis, faced with the need to reduce costs, forced out of the cost of compression in the geographical space.

Plant closures, while in Shanghai, Intel has invested in the generous plans to invest seven billion U.S. dollars the next two years in the United States converted three factories, mass production of 32-nanometer processors.

One side to ensure that R & D investment, while we have to cut plant investment, but also in the sophisticated field of massive layout, the financial crisis, broke forcing Intel comb, adjust and transform.

Upgrade, renamed the Intel China Research Institute to become located in the United States, Circuits and Systems Laboratory, Microprocessor and Programming Laboratory, Future Technology Research Laboratory, an integrated platform alongside the Intel Research Laboratory, one of the five nodes, is the only named after a geographical laboratories to report directly to Justin.

ByChina, ForChina (based on the Chinese contribution to China) ", Justin Intel China Research Institute for a concise summary of the position," China's R & D strengths and innovative capabilities more powerful, China's human and intellectual resources with global implications. Upgraded Intel China Research Institute, both rooted in China, the integration of Chinese Wisdom to do world-class research; but also in the light of China's research on market characteristics highlight the Chinese characteristics and enhance the localization of collaborative research and innovation.

Breakthrough in low-power "Atom"

Study days, as in the United States, as in Intel China Research Day, Ling Dynamic chip is still several times been mentioned. 3D Internet, cloud computing, intelligent micro-robot ... ... in June of this year in the United States, California, held in 2009 Intel Research Day, which is the most heard words. However, in a "futuristic" atmosphere, the reality faction Ling Dynamic (Atom) chips will never be forgotten.

The development of 3G, high-tech industry matures, are promoting an era of consumer electronics, Internet and other new types of portable terminals of this is the future direction of development. Intel is fully aware of this. However, in the PC market, has been the formation of "high profit", "high tech" make sense of some of Intel's pace of slow, but once very contradictory.

In mid-July, Intel CEO Paul Otellini said that the low-cost ultra-thin notebooks to offer Internet access do not have this feature. However, Intel's second quarter results showed, for the Internet in this of the Atom processor and its corresponding chipset to achieve 362 million U.S. dollars in the quarter, sales of chain soared 65%.

And dual-core Core Duo processor platform, compared Ling movement is that "low-tech", "low profit", but the access to this market demand for a class of end products, Ling Dynamic Chip's "surge" has let Intel have to changed.

People Atom chip, a major challenge is the power consumption problem. Compared to ARM architecture processor platforms based on X86 architecture, high-power Atom chip. Justin said: "We showed in laboratory studies, X86 architecture and the ARM architecture can do the same power consumption."

But now, Intel is changing. At the Intel Research Day, Justin Timberlake R & D focus in stressing that the future when he spoke of "the development of more powerful and lower power consumption of new technology."

Justin stressed: "The end of this year, early next year, Intel will launch the next generation Atom chip-Moorestown platform, the platform will be used for smart phones, will greatly reduce the power consumption."

Intel senior vice president and general manager of ultra-portable business unit, said Anand, Moorestown Atom processor platform power consumption of only 1 / 10, close to ARM processor power consumption, so that Moorestown platform to support voice applications possible.

Moorestown will be Intel's handheld terminal for a whole new change, but also for the industry is full of expectations. There have been rumors that Apple's next generation Moorestown processor of the iPhone would be used. Industry and market changes, so Intel has to change.
