With the rapid development of technology, there are more and more technological products for people’s daily life. Smartphones, tablet PCs and PC-based devices for home use have brought us a high-speed Internet era.
Under the situation of rapid development of these intelligent products, the demand for chips from domestic enterprises has also gradually increased. According to relevant data: from the beginning of 2019, China’s imports used in integrated circuit products, has exceeded 300 billion U.S. dollars, far exceeding the second category of non-renewable resources oil.
Domestic chips ushered in a turnaround! Chinese Academy of Sciences officially announced: the new chip products
The main reason for the high amount of chip imports is the low self-sufficiency rate of domestic chips. As of 2019, the self-sufficiency rate of China’s chips is only about 30%. Want to improve the self-sufficiency rate of chips, it is inevitable that scientific research on chip technology is needed.
In this high technology barrier in the field of science and technology, the entire market has formed a perfect industrial chain, and outside companies wanting to join in will face a monopoly on technology.

For example, the EDA software used in chip design and chip architecture, most companies are still dependent on the relevant outside licenses. Especially in the field of chip architecture, Intel and ARM two companies got the absolute right to speak in the market. The former itself is a U.S. company, while the latter is facing the situation of being acquired by the U.S. company Nvidia.
If the world’s two largest public architecture companies are in the pocket of the United States, domestic companies want to obtain the authorization of the relevant agencies may also be difficult.

In such a situation, the layout of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has played an extremely critical role, the domestic chip also ushered in a turnaround!
Chinese Academy of Sciences officially announced
April 15, the domestic higher research institutions of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Longxin Zhongke, announced to the outside world a new chip products – Longxin 3A5000 chip. This chip is different from most of the chips on the market, not only using the domestic Longxin architecture, but also establishing a set of its own instruction set based on the MIPS architecture.
At present, this chip has completed the flow of chips, and successfully run on the computer.

Compared with previous chip products, the technology of Longxin 3A5000 is more autonomous, both in terms of chip architecture and instruction set, and has completed the replacement of localization.
ARM also did not expect
At the same time, it was not expected by ARM, as the world’s largest developer of public architecture. Most chip design companies in the domestic market need to design chips by purchasing ARM architecture licenses. Now, the advent of Longxin’s independent architecture means that domestic chips have the ability to have to get rid of ARM and Intel two companies.
As a domestic independent chip developer, Longxin has been improving the share of domestic technology in the chip technology. In order to get rid of the influence brought by the United States to modify the relevant rules, the development of domestic operating systems, domestic chips have entered a high-speed stage. uOS system has completed a million units of installed capacity some time ago, at the same time, Huawei Kunpeng processor and motherboard, also gradually pushed to the market. It is believed that it won’t take long for the domestic chips to complete the goal of independence and autonomy.
The emergence of the Dragon Core architecture represents a brand new step for domestic chips. The localization of instruction set and architecture represents the ability of domestic chips to complete independent and autonomous development. However, for now, more platforms are needed to be compatible with Longxin processor products, and the breakthrough in the field of operating system has just begun.
