Recently, some media reported that AMD has produced the largest chip with 146 billion transistors and 13 chips.
The chip exploded at CES, not only with 146 billion transistors, but also greatly shortened ChatGPT training time, training computing power, and AI performance. 8 times! The Instinct MI300 accelerator card contains 128GB HBM3 video memory . It is reported that AMD launched the super-large chip this time to benchmark against Apple; it is obvious that Chiplet has overcome obstacles in the chip "jungle"!
Detailed information shows that AMD Semiconductor Corporation of the United States designs and manufactures various innovative microprocessors (CPU, GPU, motherboard chipsets, TV card chips, etc.) for the computer, communication and consumer electronics industries, as well as providing flash memory and low-power processors Solutions, Inc. was founded in 1969.
Nowadays, Chiplet technology is saving the life of the "chip" and setting off a "chip" whirlwind.
Packaging and testing manufacturers are competing for chiplets, and advanced packaging is also grabbing the C position. One of the semiconductor devices built into almost all electronic devices such as televisions, cell phones, and PCs is a "transistor".
It goes without saying that in the field of transistors, the All-Around Gate Transistor (GAA) will change the semiconductor industry. While GaN and SiC power transistors are highly regarded as new innovative technologies in the field of power management, there are still challenges to be overcome, especially high cost and low reliability. Rohm Semiconductor Group recently developed a small transistor that reduces power loss by 20%. Earlier, Rohm has developed a "power semiconductor" with a 20% reduction in on-resistance. In addition, South Korea's CLAP company demonstrated organic thin film transistor application technology at CES 2023, and also brought prototypes such as OTFT-based fingerprint recognition sensors to CES 2023. At the beginning of last year, with the official holding of Apple's spring conference, a big surprise appeared in the field of transistors: the birth of the strongest computer chip in history! The chip has 114 billion transistors, the most ever.
On the other hand, other related news from AMD shows that: AMD's latest AGESA BIOS accidentally overturned. It turned out that Ryzen's new BIOS actually caused the performance of the R5 7600X to drop. And AMD recently released a firmware defect, which affects some Ryzen 5 7600X. AMD presents "the most complex chip in history": madly stuffing 146 billion transistors with Chiplet technology.
