半导体业界调研公司MicroDesignResource的高级分析家PeterSong称,要想用到完全由IBM设计的处理器,大家至少还要再等两年。而目前Digital已生产出一款速度很快的处理器,并且在顺利的向1GHz主频进军。 IBM最近宣布该公司一个15人的研究小组在Austin的研究室中已制作出一个运行于1100MHz的芯片。惊闻此讯的Digital却故作镇静地说:“不着急”。Digital的Alpha处理器的高级产品经理DaveJessel称,“我们已经拥有了可以用于我们产品的1GHz技术。” Digital已经展示了该公司最新的600MHz Alpha处理器,并宣布该芯片在2000年将跨过1000MHz大关,Jessel表示,我们目前的产品和将来的IGHz产品间已不存在任何障碍。 Digital期望在被Compaq收购后,按惯例进行的规模缩减会允许他的芯片向1000MHz冲刺。另一方面,IBM的研究突破也只
PeterSong, a senior analyst at MicroDesignResource, a semiconductor industry research company, says everyone needs to wait at least two more years for a processor designed entirely by IBM. At present, Digital has produced a very fast processor, and marched to the 1GHz frequency smoothly. IBM recently announced that a 15-person research group at the company has produced a chip running at 1100 MHz in Austin’s lab. Digital is shocked to hear the news but calmly said: “Do not worry.” Dave Jessel, senior product manager at Digital’s Alpha processor, said, “We already have 1GHz available for our products.” Digital has already demonstrated the company’s new 600MHz Alpha processor and announced that the chip will cross in 2000 At the 1000MHz mark, Jessel said there is no obstacle between our current product and future IGHz products. Digital expects that the usual downsizing after Compaq’s acquisition will allow his chip to sprint at 1000MHz. On the other hand, IBM’s research breakthrough only
