From the cloud to the network to the edge of today's innovations, these have brought great opportunities to semiconductor, the scale of 200 billion dollars, as a semiconductor has been running for 50 years Intel, continues to focus on the Internet of Things chip, edge computing and computer vision three major focus, including Movidius AI chip, FPGA development suite, and so on. Leading the revolution of artificial intelligence and automation.

Tencent Technologies News reported that Qualcomm today announced that it is developing the next generation of "flagship mobile chips" for 5G mobile phones. The chip will incorporate Qualcomm's Snapdragon X50 modem and an unnamed 7-nanometer chip system solution.

In the first half of this year, Samsung's sales in the global semiconductor market were 22% higher than Intel's, up from 1% a year ago, as demand for DRAM and NAND flash memory continued to grow, according to research firm IC Insights.

High Qualcomm wearable chips have not been updated for nearly two years, although Qualcomm has updated the Wear 2500 this year, but it is for children's watches, not other wearable devices. Today, Qualcomm has finally remembered to update the wider use of wearable cores.

In July 31, 2018, the global digital money miner ASIC product leader Innosilicon announced today that its bitcoin Terminator series uses Samsung's most advanced low power FinFET technology to break the industry record with ultra high energy efficiency - the energy consumption of the chip is as low as 63W/TH, and the measured wall of the mining machine is 75W/TH (25 degrees C). The record-breaking, energy-efficient ASIC has entered mass production, and the next generation of bitcoin miners using the chip has begun to ship.

In recent years, NOKIA (Nokia) has actively developed various 5G related applications and also actively participates in the standard formulation to help the development of 5G connection technology in the application field of intelligent ports, car networking, intelligent factories and so on. To this end, NOKIA has introduced its own chipset to achieve the miniaturization of base stations and reduce the cost of 5G construction.
