2018-05-04

On April 23, at the first Digital China Construction Summit held in Fuzhou, China Electronics 38 released the strongest digital signal processor of similar products in the actual computing performance industry - 'Soul Core 2A'. The chip is completely independently designed by 38 schools, which can complete 100 billion floating point operations in one second, and the single-core performance exceeds the performance of similar chips in the current international market by 4 times.


High-performance chips are known as 'industrial grain and grass' and represent a national level of information technology. For a long time, China has been relying on imports in high-performance digital signal processors (DSP). Twelve years ago, 38 began to enter the field of digital signal processor chips. In 2012, the institute launched the first practical high-performance floating point general DSP chip independently developed in China - 'Soul core No. 1', the performance is 4~6 times higher than the same DSP chip in the same market, and successfully applied in China's air police -500 early warning aircraft radar and other national defense scientific and technological equipment. It has become the first high-end autonomous digital signal processor widely used in national defense science and technology equipment in China. Using this chip, the air police 200 early warning aircraft radar easily overwhelmed the United States E-2D, but also makes the J-20 fighter jet with superior information capabilities, plus the J-20 ultra-powerful 60 decibel antenna gain, making the J-20 radar, the detection range is very far and almost uninterfered.


'Soul Core 2A' adopted A fully independent system architecture, research and development lasted for 6 years, broke through a number of technical problems such as controller design, and obtained more than 30 national technical invention patents, software Copyrights and other scientific and technological achievements; It has the strongest performance DSP core in the industry, and has surpassed the performance indicators of similar products at home and abroad. Compared with the 'soul core No. 1', the performance of 'soul core No. 2 A' has been improved by 6 times. Through single-core to multi-core, expansion of computing components, upgrade of instruction system and other means, the device performance of hundreds of billions of floating-point operations has a relatively good application environment and debugging means. Single-core to achieve 1024 floating point FFT (fast Fourier transform) operation only 1.6 microseconds, computing efficiency is 3 times higher than Texas Instruments TMS320C6678, the actual capacity of 1.7 times, the device data throughput rate of 240Gb per second.


As A universal DSP processor, 'Soul Core 2A' will be widely used in radar, electronic countermeasures, communications, image processing, medical electronics, industrial robots and other high-intensive computing fields. At present, it is being promoted in a variety of major equipment and image processing fields. Hong Yi, chief scientist of China Electronics and chief designer of 'Soul Core 2A', introduced that the launch of 'Soul Core 2A' makes software radio from ideal to reality, and the chip function gradually depends on the update of software algorithm becomes possible, laying A solid foundation for the establishment of high-end DSP product pedigree of independent system in China.


Yesterday, The State Council Information Office held a press conference on the development of the industrial communications industry in the first quarter, the Ministry of Industry and Information Technology chief engineer, spokesman Chen Yin introduced that China Integrated Circuit Development Fund, is now in the second phase of fundraising, the current program has been reported to The State Council and approved.


Sources close to the large fund revealed that the size of the second phase of the large fund is more than the first phase, about 150 billion to 200 billion yuan. According to the leverage ratio of 1:3, the scale of social funds that will be leveraged is about 450 billion to 600 billion yuan. Adding in the 138.7 billion yuan of the first phase of the large fund and the 514.5 billion yuan of social funds mobilized, the total amount of funds will exceed one trillion yuan.


Beautiful my youth China, and heaven is not old; Strong my Chinese youth, and the country boundless!
