Chapter 8: Microcontroller

Behind the work station area, Su Xinghe, Zhang Ke and Xi Xiaoding stood, and others, including Su Yuanshan, were carrying chairs and sitting in the open space.

Xi Xiaoding's pale face was very blushing today. As the chief engineer and technical director, he is the allocator of all task modules, and the final acceptor and the person who wiped his butt.

Although the code quality of each group is uneven, Yuanxin EDA was built in brick by brick.

Xi Xiaoding looked around and smiled slowly: "We are all skilled, so we don't speak politely."

"Thank you for your cooperation and efforts over the past few months, and also thank you Yuanxin for giving me the honor of cooperating with you and witnessing the birth of a top industry software."

"Today, the completion of the main alpha version does not mean that our task is completed. Next, we need to perform bugfix, simplify the code, and improve subsequent tools and perform compatibility verification of pdk (process     design      kit standard unit library, toolkit) with each wafer factory."

"As the technical director, I should have pointed out some shortcomings in my previous work, but today I will not defeat everyone's interest. The future is long, so see you in the next battle!"

Everyone burst into laughter - although Xi Xiaoding said he would not point out his shortcomings today, he was scolded a lot on weekdays. Especially T-Da, P-Da, there were several computer majors. When they first joined the company, they were very energetic and didn't even take the doctoral degree from the electrical department seriously. As a result, Xi Xiaoding caught the opportunity to teach him.

After that, he met Su Yuanshan, a hidden boss with a innocent face, harmless humans and animals... Only then did those guys completely convinced and finally showed the programming level that matched their professionalism and background.

"I'm done. Oh, by the way-Tang Wenjie, your wife is here."

Everyone turned around, and when they saw the heroic Yang Yiwen standing behind with a smile, the whistle sounded again. Tang Wenjie pushed away the chair, rushed to Yang Yiwen, hugged his girlfriend and laughed proudly.

"Well... I'll say a few more words."

Zhang Ke coughed, and everyone calmed down when they saw this.

Everyone knows that this is the second boss and the God of Wealth who invests money, so it gives Zhang Ke a great face.

"I don't know much about technology, but I know everyone has worked hard recently. So..." Zhang Ke looked at his brother-in-law, stretched out his index finger and pointed at it: "Brother-in-law, walk on the 32nd floor?"

Su Xinghe nodded with a smile: "Okay!"

"That afternoon, the 32nd floor rotating restaurant, we will see you!"

Everyone was stunned, and then all burst into thunderous applause.

The 32nd floor rotating restaurant has a minimum consumption of 300 - it is the salary of an ordinary college student who is allocated for nearly a month. Even if the salary present is at least twice that of 300, it is still a high-consumption place that you dare not get involved in.

...

...

That night, Su Yuanshan helped his slightly drunk father and took a taxi back to school.

The two of them did not rush to go upstairs, but sobered up the walk in the night breeze on campus.

"What are your plans next?" Su Xinghe stopped beside the bench, rubbed his face, and looked at his son.

This ety and even Yuanxin were almost all tinkered with him, his genius son, and he was also very shocked while being proud.

Su Yuanshan swept the ashes on the chair, pulled his father down and smiled and said, "Do you ask me or the company?"

"company."

"The current personnel are divided into three groups, one is responsible for the follow-up research and development of EDA, and Xi Xiaoding will take charge of it. The other is responsible for the development of microcontrollers, you will come."

Su Xinghe's body was always there, and his drunkenness disappeared in an instant. He stared at his son: "Create a brand new architecture?"

Su Yuanshan nodded: "Well, the new architecture starts with the eight-bit computer."

Su Xinghe looked at his son's resolute face, pinched his chin, and after thinking for a long time, he nodded slowly: "Microcontrollers are embedded systems, unlike x86, and they are not that complicated. You can really try it. But it's not enough to rely on me and you, a few senior brothers. If you want to do it, you can only set up a joint research team with the department."

"There is no problem with the joint research team. As long as you are the team leader, the biggest result is yours. The most important thing is that it is still too late to do it now."

Now that microcontrollers have just entered the country, the market is still in an era of conflicts among many heroes, it is far from the situation where the 8051 family of Intel, which almost unified the 8-bit microcontroller world in later generations.

This situation has also caused confusion in China - I don’t know which architecture to use to develop. Therefore, not to mention that undergraduates are not qualified to learn microcontrollers, even masters and doctors can only follow their supervisors to study the architecture mastered by their supervisors, so as to truly enter the field of "large-scale integrated circuits".

For example, Qin Weimin and Tang Wenjie and others learned the z80 microcontroller by Su Xinghe.

The reason why 51 microcontroller dominated the world in the future was that Intel almost let all patents be allowed to be improved by authorized manufacturers. On the other hand, it launched detailed textbooks and occupied the school's high ground. So by the 21st century, the textbooks of relevant majors in various universities in China were all the principles of 51 microcontrollers.

——Speaking of the same is true for Microsoft’s success, first occupying the school’s position and then affecting the people.

——Okay, Yuanxineda will also use this shameless way.

Once Yuanxin and the University of Electronic Science and Technology of China develop independent microcontrollers, as long as the performance does not fail, the domestic market will at least be stable.

...

Su Xinghe sighed: "It's still time to build a microcontroller now, but it's hard to build x86. Our science and engineering science is not like liberal arts. Once we don't have access to cutting-edge technology, it's really hard to chase. Now the CPU in the west is in full swing, and we don't make any noise at all... Why are you going to ask about authorization - Isn't it just a few chisels to replicate it?"

"Your Senior Brother Qin is about to graduate. A few days ago, I asked him what he had plans. He was very hesitant. On the one hand, he wanted to stay in Yuanxin, and on the other hand, he wanted to apply to go abroad to see him. I don't know how to give him advice." Su Xinghe looked at his son. Under the street light, although his son's face was still tender, his eyes were as mature and deep as a young man.

Su Yuanshan smiled and said, "Let Senior Brother Qin stay in Yuanxin and work with you in a microcontroller. After you become a doctoral supervisor, he will follow you to study for a doctoral degree."

When Su Xinghe heard this, he shook his head and smiled. He patted his son's shoulder and said softly: "Son, now you and me are the only ones, I will tell you the truth. If Qin Weimin's pursuit only requires a doctoral title, of course I am willing to take him. But if Qin Weimin wants to go further in the semiconductor industry, to be precise, integrated circuit design, your father and I... are afraid that they will mislead their children."

Su Yuanshan looked at his father with admiration - a professor who can calmly admit that his academic level is still lacking, is a truly respectable professor.

He knew very well about his father and son for two generations of Su Xinghe. He was very clear about what his father is now. It was more than enough to teach a master's degree, and it was almost meaningful to take a doctorate.

In fact, this is also the embarrassment faced by all professors and associate professors in the semiconductor and computer industries in China. Because this is a rapidly developing technology, once you don’t get on the car, it will be difficult to chase again. To change this situation, you have to wait for more than ten years until those talents with advanced technologies and concepts return to China. At that time, it was no longer a question of whether you could catch up or not, but a question of whether you have the right to chase.

"No, dad." Su Yuanshan said softly: "In addition to learning, technology can also be studied. There were no conditions and environment before. Now that you have Yuanxin, the country is also working on the 908 project. As long as we can bite and chase the people in the west, even if we can't overtake on the curve, we can still pull off our shorts."

"If you bring Senior Brother Qin and others to create an independent microcontroller, at least these shorts are torn off and caught up. The harvest of the pursuit process is our knowledge and wealth. How can we mislead people's children?"

After pondering for a long time, Su Xinghe focused: "I'll listen to you. I'll call him tomorrow and say that our opinions are to let him stay in Yuanxin."

Qin Weimin is now leading a team to carry out simulation and docking with PCCLs - his last process is EDA. It is equivalent to handing over the designed layout to the automation equipment, and finally the automation equipment completes the assembly line production.

It was late at night, and Su Xinghe got up and was about to go home. Suddenly he remembered that there was still a group of people who didn't say anything.

"By the way, what's there for a group? Who is responsible?"

Su Yuanshan smiled slightly: "Senior Brother Tian Yaoming is responsible for him, I will help him. We will strive to create two pager decoding chips in the shortest time."

Motorola is now working with Inspur to develop decoding chips. Domestic pager encoding chooses the international wireless paging standard code. This set of encoding addresses has a large capacity and has no limit on sending messages, which is most suitable for Chinese. However, in this era when Chinese characters output still depends on Chinese cards, it is undoubtedly the best choice to create a chip that focuses on Chinese encoding and directly plug it into the wireless paging platform to upgrade on the wireless paging platform.

As for Tian Yaoming, he was a second-year student in the electronic communication engineering major of electrical science and technology, and was also "borrowed".

Three teams, three legs.
