At the beginning of this month, Huawei launched the Qingyun L540 notebook equipped with a 5nm process chip, which also aroused heated discussions among netizens, and even foreign media found it incredible.In fact, the 5nm process Kirin 9006C processor was unveiled two years ago and is part of the Kirin 9000 family.
As the world's first 5nm 5G chip and the 5nm chip with the largest number of built-in transistors (15.3 billion transistors), Kirin 9000 has multiple versions, including Kirin 9000, Kirin 9000E and Kirin 9000L.
Of course, Kirin 9006C is also a member of the Kirin 9000 family. It is also based on the 5nm process and is an eight-core processor with a main frequency of 3.13GHz.
Specifically, the processor architecture of Kirin 9006C uses a 3.13GHz A77 large core, three 2.54GHz A77 medium cores and four 2.04GHz A55 small cores, and the GPU architecture uses a 24-core Mali-G78.
What surprised the foreign media was how Huawei produced this chip. After all, the 5nm process is controlled. Maybe it was the stock chip they ordered from TSMC before.
