Recently, news has spread that it will implement a "Huawei-like ban" on fur bears, prohibiting the use of high-tech technologies containing US patents and the export of related products containing technologies. Want to use this to impose sanctions.
We all know that the global semiconductor industry is basically concentrated in China, the United States, Japan, South Korea and Europe. We usually hear little news about Mao Xiong’s semiconductors, but the lack of news is not because of low profile, mainly because Its domestic semiconductor industry is too weak. To what extent is it weak? There is not even a DUV lithography machine in China, nor any chip manufacturing capabilities.
Without chip manufacturing capabilities, in the face of a possible chip ban, many people may think that its domestic related companies will suffer a fatal blow and cannot withstand sanctions like Huawei. But this is not the case. Mao Xiong is not afraid of US chip sanctions!
Our country is a big manufacturing country with a complete industrial system and can produce all kinds of goods. When the production of a product lacks relevant parts, it needs to be imported separately to make up for it, and then the goods can be sold differently. Mao Xiong's domestic industrialization level is frighteningly high. It basically does not produce electronic products and relies on imports, purchasing a finished product directly.
The direct purchase method eliminates the need to worry about being limited to a single component. Chinese companies that want to produce smartphones need to import chips, screens and other components. This is why Huawei is severely restricted when facing a ban from the United States.
If you are not engaged in related manufacturing in China, you naturally don’t have to worry too much about being sanctioned. And even if the import of electronic products is restricted, it will have a considerable impact. However, once the ban is issued, the most worrying ones are related companies in the United States, Japan, and South Korea that use U.S. patented technology to produce electronic products. Many of their products are sold directly to Mauritius. Bear domestic exports will be severely damaged if they are restricted.
Chips have a wide range of applications and are core components of many electronic products, but they are not irreplaceable. Although Maoxiong does not have a domestic chip industry, it has a black technology that can replace ordinary chips. The black technology is the "separately excited crystal oscillator".
The separately excited crystal oscillator is a product developed based on electron tubes. It uses relatively simple analog circuit technology to achieve coherent accumulation of intermediate frequencies, achieving the same effect as ordinary chips controlling electronic products. However, compared with chips, they are much larger in size and are not suitable for civilian products such as mobile phones that require performance and size.
Although it is large in size and weak in performance, its stability is much better than that of chips. According to relevant tests, under the influence of extreme environments such as electromagnetic pulses, the chip will lose its function, while the electronic tube can maintain normal operation.
The super stability allows it to be used in military products that do not have high requirements on performance but have extremely high requirements on stability. Since the separately excited crystal oscillator was developed, Mao Xiong has been prioritizing its use in military products.
Civilian chips are directly solved by imported goods. The existence of this black technology also solves the problem of military chips. In addition, the United States has always blocked related technologies and has insufficient economic capacity. Therefore, it has never It focuses on developing the chip industry, so it is so weak in the semiconductor field.
It is one thing that the semiconductor industry is weak, but it does not mean that there is no R&D capability.
Mao Xiong himself knows that the chip is weak. While importing electronic products, it is also constantly encouraging related domestic companies to develop chips. After recent years of development, there are still several chip R&D companies in China that are able to develop chips.
In 2017, Baikal Electronics, a domestic chip R&D company, designed the Baikal-M series of processors. This processor has a 28-nanometer process and was successfully mass-produced through TSMC. Although the performance is not strong, it represents its chip research and development capabilities.
At the same time, even if the United States imposes restrictions, Mao Xiong still has a backer to rely on - China. Our country's semiconductor industry is also restricted by the United States, but our development is okay.
There is a strategic relationship between China and Russia. In fact, the two countries have been closely cooperating in aerospace electronic products, and many Russian electronic devices are directly provided by our country. As long as our country's chip industry can make breakthroughs, it will not be restricted.
Relying on its technological leadership, the United States continues to impose sanctions on this and that. His behavior is disgraceful. In the era of economic globalization, unilateral sanctions will ultimately harm the interests of all parties.
It continues to make trouble in the semiconductor field. Provoking trouble will only strengthen the determination of various countries to independently develop semiconductors. Mao Xiong does it, and so does our country. Without the sanctions, I believe it will stop barking and biting!
Maozi’s chip manufacturing capability is almost 0. Why is it not afraid of sanctions? It has trump cards
The Russian chip field is almost blank. How does it withstand the pressure from the United States?
