➀ The US has imposed export restrictions on semiconductor firms targeting China since 2018, aiming to hinder China's chipmaking ambitions.

➁ Chinese chipmakers are innovating by pushing the limits of technology, such as using multi-patterning and hardware-software fusion.

➂ Huawei's Ascend 910C chip demonstrates the potential for innovation, offering 800 teraflops compared to Nvidia's 2,500 teraflops.

➃ The strategy involves using less advanced technologies like DUV systems to compensate for foreign restrictions.

➄ Concerns remain about the long-term feasibility of this approach due to physical limitations of current technology.

➅ China is also exploring the use of less precise number representations in AI chips to optimize performance.

➀ Shenzhen Wanliyan Technology Co., Ltd., a subsidiary of New Kailai, has launched a new generation of ultra-high-speed real-time oscilloscope at the Bay Chip Exhibition, with a bandwidth突破90GHz.

➁ Oscilloscopes are essential tools in the development of technology-intensive industries such as electronics information, semiconductor, and integrated circuits, but the high-end oscilloscope market in China has been dominated by Western manufacturers like Tektronix, Keithley, and LeCroy, with Chinese manufacturers only able to provide mid-to-low-end products.

➂ The bandwidth of leading international high-end oscilloscopes reaches 60GHz or more, with the highest reaching 110GHz, while the highest bandwidth of domestic manufacturers' oscilloscopes was between 8GHz and 18GHz.
