Kutshanje i-Intel iyekile izicwangciso zayo zokuvelisa nokuthengisa iimodem ze-5G kwiifowuni emva kokuba umthengi wayo oyintloko, i-Apple, ebhengeze ngo-Epreli 16 ukuba iza kuqalisa ukusebenzisa iimodem zeQualcomm. I-Apple yayikhe yasebenzisa iimodem zeQualcomm ngaphambili, kodwa yatshintshela kwiimveliso ze-Intel ngenxa yeengxabano zomthetho ne-Qualcomm malunga namalungelo obunikazi kunye neentlawulo eziphezulu zeelayisenisi. Nangona kunjalo, inkqubela phambili ye-Intel kwi-5G isemva kakhulu kokhuphiswano lwayo, kwaye i-Apple ayifuni ukuchitha ixesha kwaye isalele emva. Android-abavelisi ngenxa yokungafuni kwamaqabane abo ukuba nobuchule obutsha.
I-Qualcomm sele ikhuphe iimodem zayo zokuqala ze-5G, ngelixa i-Intel iceba ukuqala ukuvelisa iiyunithi zokuqala kuphela ngo-2020, nto leyo, ukuba intsebenziswano phakathi kwe-Intel ne-Apple ingagcinwa, inokukhokelela ekuveleni kwe iPhone I-5G imalunga nonyaka kude kube sekuqaleni kokuba izixhobo zokuqala zivele. Android ngenkxaso yomgangatho omtsha wonxibelelwano. Okubi nangakumbi, abahlalutyi base-UBS naseCowen balumkisile ukuba u-2020 unokuba luqikelelo oluhle kwi-Intel, oluya kungahambisani ngokupheleleyo nenyaniso.
I-Intel ayivumelananga noqikelelo lwe-UBS kunye neCowen, kodwa isigqibo se-Apple, esicacisa ukuba kubaluleke kakhulu ukukhutshwa ngokukhawuleza kwe-software entsha. iPhone, endaweni yokuphumelela kwimilo yezomthetho neQualcomm, ibonisa ukuba abahlalutyi kusenokwenzeka ukuba babengekude kakhulu. Le meko ingathathwa njengokusilela kwesibini kwe-Intel kwimizamo yayo yokungena kwimarike yeselula. Makhe sijonge ukusilela kwe-Intel kwangaphambili kunye noko kunokuthetha kona kwikamva layo.
I-Intel ilahlekelwe njani lithuba layo kwimarike yesixhobo esiphathwayo
Kwiminyaka engaphezu kweshumi eyadlulayo, i-Intel ithe i-Apple ayizukukwazi ukuthengisa iivolumu ezinkulu. iPhone, kwaye ngenxa yoko wala ukuvelisa iiprosesa zefowuni yakhe yokuqala. Ekugqibeleni i-Apple yayalela iiprosesa kwi-Samsung ngaphambi kokuba iphuhlise iiprosesa zayo ze-A-series, ezathi ekugqibeleni zenziwa yi-Samsung kunye ne-TSMC.
Emva koko, i-Intel ayizange iyikhathalele ukukhula ngokukhawuleza kwe-ARM, eyayinika iilayisenisi zeetships ezinamandla aphantsi kubenzi beetshipship eziphathwayo ezifana neQualcomm. I-Intel yayine-microarchitecture yayo yeeprosesa ze-ARM, i-XScale, kodwa yayithengisela iMarvell Technology ngo-2006. I-Intel yagqiba ekubeni isebenzise isikhundla sayo esiphambili kwi-PC kwaye abancedisi, esebenzisa kakhulu uyilo lwe-x86 endaweni ye-ARM ukukhuthaza iiprosesa zayo ze-Atom x86 kwizixhobo eziphathwayo.
Ngelishwa, iiprosesa ze-Intel x86 bezingasebenzi kakuhle njengeeprosesa ze-ARM, kwaye abavelisi besixhobo esiphathwayo babeka phambili ubomi bebhetri ngaphezulu kwezibonelelo zokusebenza. Ngenxa yoko, abathengi baphendukela kubavelisi be-chip be-ARM abanje ngeQualcomm kunye neSamsung. Kungekudala i-Qualcomm yadibanisa imodem kunye nemizobo engundoqo kwi-chip ye-ARM kusapho lwayo lwe-Snapdragon yeeprosesa, eyathi yaba sisisombululo esinexabiso eliphantsi kuninzi lwabavelisi be-smartphone. Ekuqaleni kweshumi leminyaka elitsha, iiprosesa ze-ARM zazisetyenziswa kwi-95% yazo zonke ii-smartphones emhlabeni, kwaye i-Qualcomm yaba ngoyena mvelisi mkhulu weechips eziphathwayo.
Endaweni yokunikezela, i-Intel yazama ukubuyela kwimakethi ye-smartphone ngokuxhasa ii-OEM ezazisebenzisa iitshiphusi ze-Atom. Ngaphezu kweminyaka emithathu, malunga ne-10 yeebhiliyoni zeerandi zachithwa kwiinkxaso-mali ukuze kuthathwe akukho ngaphezu kwe-1% yemarike. Xa i-Intel isika izibonelelo, ii-OEMs zibuyela kwi-chips ze-ARM.
Embindini we-2016, i-Intel ekugqibeleni yayeka ukuvelisa i-Atom SoC yee-smartphones. Ngaloo nyaka, inkampani yaqala ukubonelela ngeemodem ze-4G kwi-Apple, eyasasaza ii-odolo phakathi kwe-Intel kunye ne-Qualcomm. Nangona kunjalo, iimodem ze-Intel zazicotha ngokubonakalayo kuneQualcomm, zinyanzela i-Apple ukuba inciphise isantya sokugqibela ukuphelisa umahluko phakathi kweefowuni zayo.
Ke ngoko, akumangalisi ukuba umsantsa osele ubonakala, i-Intel ilahlekile kugqatso lwe-5G. Inkampani ngokucacileyo ayizange ikwazi ukufanisa ubuchwephesha be-Qualcomm kule ndawo, kwaye iingxaki eziqhubekayo ze-Intel kunye nokuveliswa okwaneleyo kwee-chips kwinkqubo ye-14 nm, ebandakanya iimodem zayo, ziye zandisa ingxaki.
Kuthetha ukuthini oku kusilela kwi-Intel?
Isigqibo sika-Apple sokulahla intsebenziswano kunye ne-Intel ayimangalisi, kodwa ukuzithemba kwe-Intel kwindlela yayo kuphakamisa imibuzo malunga nolawulo lwenkampani.
Kwelinye icala, isigqibo sika-Apple sinokunceda i-Intel iphucule imeko ngokunqongophala kwe-14 nm chips. Kwakhona, ilahleko ye-Apple njengomthengi kwiimodem zexesha elizayo ze-5G zenkampani akufanele zichaphazele kakhulu ingeniso yayo, egxile kakhulu kwimarike yePC (i-52% yeengeniso ze-Intel ngo-2018), ngakumbi ekubeni imveliso ingekaqali. Isenokunciphisa iindleko zophando kunye nophuhliso, ezidla phantse isihlanu sengeniso ye-Intel kulo nyaka uphelileyo, kwaye ivumele i-Intel ukuba ichithe imali ethe kratya kubuchwephesha obuthembisayo apho umlo wenkampani ungekalahleki, njengeemoto eziziqhubayo.
Okubangel 'umdla kukuba, abanini-zabelo kunye neemarike babonakala becinga kwicala elifanayo, ngenxa yokuba isigqibo sokuyeka ukubonelela ngeemodem ze-5G sibangele ukuba izabelo ze-Intel zinyuke kancinci, endaweni yokuwa okubonakala kulindelwe, njengoko abahlalutyi bakholelwa ukuba oku kuya kuvumela inkampani ukuba inciphise ngokungeyomfuneko. iindleko ezinciphisa inzuzo yayo eseleyo.
I-Intel ayilahli ngokupheleleyo uphuhliso lwemodem kunye nokubonelela. Inkampani isacwangcisa ukuvelisa i-4G kunye ne-5G chips kwiiPC kunye nezixhobo ezixhasa i-Intanethi yeNgcinga yezinto. Nangona kunjalo, ukulahleka kwee-odolo ze-Apple kuphawule ukusilela kwesibini kwenkampani ukufumana indawo kwimakethi enkulu ye-smartphone. Masithembe ukuba i-Intel isifundile isifundo kwaye igxile ngakumbi kubuchule obutsha endaweni yokuxhomekeka ekuphakameni kwayo ngokungagqibekanga, njengoko yenzayo kwiAtom.
