Today's core language
TSMC just announced its revenue data for July, reaching NT$80.95 billion, up 35% from the previous month and up 24.7% year-on-year, marking the second-highest record in TSMC's history. After last month's bumper harvest, TSMC officials also said that the 16nm process will be mass-produced in the third quarter of this year, smashing the rumors of the previous production delay, which may be good news for Huawei. For more information on technology, please pay attention to the daily electronic core morning newspaper.
First, the semiconductor
1. TSMC does not delay 16nm, helping Kirin 950 to challenge Samsung Qualcomm. On August 10th, TSMC just announced its revenue data for July, which was NT$80.95 billion, up 35% from the previous month and up 24.7% year-on-year, the second highest record in TSMC history. After last month's bumper harvest, TSMC officials also said that the 16nm process will be mass-produced in the third quarter of this year, smashing the rumors of the previous production delay, which may be good news for Huawei. It seems that although TSMC has only gained 30% of the orders for Samsung's competition for Apple's A9 processor, the former has not been affected and is still eye-catching in July. Then in the next few months, TSMC has the biggest task of preparing the 16nm FF+ process and starting to produce the A9 processor and the HiSilicon 950.
2. After Intel acquired Altera: it will integrate the processor core and FPGA. Since Intel announced the acquisition of Altera on June 1 this year, the two sides have not disclosed more information on the M&A information. However, in response to this, Altera Asia Pacific Vice President and Managing Director Zhuang Binghan quoted Intel's public message, and also outlined the future direction of Intel's acquisition of Altera. Zhuang Binghan said that it is well known that Moore's Law was created by the founders of Intel. So far, Intel still believes that Moore's Law still applies to the semiconductor industry. Similarly, Altera has the same view. In addition, Intel believes that the acquisition of Altera and its own IP and other technical solutions can create a new generation of product lineup to meet the data center and the Internet of Things customer base.
Second, automotive electronics
1. A smart lock with built-in alcohol detection function prevents all drunk driving. In addition to drunk driving, there is also a smart car lock specially developed for people who drink bicycles after drinking. In addition to locking the car, this car lock also incorporates alcohol detection. The car is called Alcoho-Lock, which has an alcohol sensor inside. Users can detect whether they have alcoholic drinks by blowing air at the sensing position. After each lock, open it and conduct an alcohol test. Once alcohol is detected, it will remain locked.
2. New hidden dangers in the Internet of Vehicles: Gas stations are vulnerable to hackers. Security company Trend Micro experts Kyle Wilhoit and Stephen Hilt recently conducted an experiment to set up a simulated gas station to lure hackers. By establishing a fuel tank monitoring system, GasPot, similar to a typical gas station in the United States, it monitors tank temperature, capacity, gasoline model, etc. through sensors and wireless networks. And this system also has similar vulnerabilities to the real system. The simulated gas station was deployed in the United States, Germany, the United Kingdom, Jordan, Brazil, Russia, the United Arab Emirates and other countries, and in at least 23 attacks in 5 months. Some hackers successfully invaded the mailbox monitoring system through DDoS attacks and other methods, and were able to freely change the information such as the gasoline model and interfere with the inventory monitoring and distribution behavior. There are no small security risks.
Third, intelligent hardware
1. LeTV Sports released Super Bike: Push GENE intelligent hardware brand. On the evening of August 11th, Beijing time, the LeTV super bicycle was named “Wild Birdâ€. The official expression was inspired by the action of birds diving and was built in cooperation with the traditional bicycle brand Feige. Super bicycles mainly include the "head machine" and "central control" on the basis of traditional bicycles. The head unit adds a smart module to the central part of the handlebar, including a 4-inch display, speakers and noise-canceling microphone. There is also a fingerprint identification button directly below the screen for the user to unlock the bicycle and the operating system.
2. Baidu Future Store established NOVA Alliance to support intelligent hardware companies. DoNews August 11 news Baidu Future Store announced today the establishment of "NOVA Innovation Products Support Alliance." It is reported that NOVA Alliance focuses on supporting intelligent hardware start-ups, providing intelligent hardware teams with all-round support from investment and design to product packaging, promotion and sales.
Fourth, battery technology
1. A new transparent solar glass cell that allows windows to power the building. Researchers at the University of Michigan have developed a fully transparent solar collector that turns ordinary glass or windows into photovoltaic solar cells. This new result is significantly different from other traditional "transparent" solar cells, which are essentially "transparent" in nature. The research leader Richard Lunt and the entire team are very confident in their technology, saying that this new transparent Solar Panel can be easily installed and deployed, not only the entire building will benefit, but also for a variety of mobile devices powered by. Now, the solar conversion rate of this new study is about 1%. I believe that with the team's continued efforts, it will be very possible to increase the conversion rate to 5% in the future.
Five, smart home
1, Hook cheap smart home kit, so that ordinary appliances are also smart. Although the concept of smart home is becoming more and more popular, it is believed that most ordinary people use traditional household appliances. At present, how to make ordinary household appliances also join the tide of smart homes is also a development direction of products in this field. Recently, the Hook Smart Home Kit from Washington, DC provides a smarter solution for more traditional home appliances. The Hook kit contains plugs with different functions. Similar to the modular design, different functions can be realized. The screw can directly install the bulb, the jack can be connected to the appliance to be managed, and the USB interface can be connected to a device that requires USB charging or power supply. Can eat most household appliances.
2, Friday smart door lock, can match the smart home system. The home security system is nothing new in European and American homes. The Friday smart lock is designed by BIG, a world-renowned architectural design company, and runs on Apple HomeKit and Tread platforms. At the cutting edge of Friday's design, BIG said the lock is designed to serve the "more elegant, smarter home environment." Friday is easy to install and users can do it themselves. In addition, Friday has a reminder function, remote control function, and first-class safety performance. Friday has no keyholes, no matter where you are, the owner can authorize people who can enter the house, including short-term authorization and permanent authorization; even if the owner is not at home, the authorization process can be completed.
