Kwikota yesithathu yalo nyaka, Intel I-19,2 yeebhiliyoni zeedola, eyavumela ukuba ivakalise ukuhlaziywa kwerekhodi yembali, kwaye kwangaxeshanye ivume ukuba iinzame ezijoliswe ekufudukeni kwinqanaba leenkqubo zomthengi ziqala ukuvelisa iziqhamo. Ubuncinci, ukuba i-9,7 yeebhiliyoni zeerandi kwingeniso yenziwe ekuphunyezweni kwezisombululo zabathengi, ngoko kwindawo yoshishino "ejikelezileyo yedatha", ingeniso yafikelela kwiibhiliyoni ze-9,5. I-Intel ithi ngoku ifumana phantse isiqingatha sengeniso yayo yonke kwiindawo zoshishino ezithembisayo. Oku kubaluleke ngakumbi ngokuqwalasela ukuba kwicandelo labaxhasi, ingeniso iyancipha nge-5%, kwaye kuzo zonke iinqununu "ezithembisayo" zanda nge-2% ukuya kwi-20%.
Umda wenzuzo yokusebenza yonyaka wehla ukusuka kwi-40 ukuya kwi-36 yeepesenti yeepesenti, ichaphazeleke kakubi ngamaxabiso ememori kunye nokunyuka kweendleko zokuvelisa iprosesa. Nangona kunjalo, umntu akufanele acinge ukuba ukunyuka nje kwemithamo yokuvelisa iprosesa nge-25% kunyanzeliswe i-Intel ukuba inyuse iindleko. Ngapha koko, imali ebalulekileyo yabelwe ukonyusa umthamo wemveliso yeemveliso ze-Intel ze-10nm. I-CEO uRobert Swan wade wacinga ukuba kunokwenzeka ukuthetha ukuba ixesha leemveliso ze-10nm sele lifikile.
I-Intel sele ineesampulu ezisebenzayo ze-10nm yegraphics discrete
Imveliso ye-serial yeemveliso ze-10-nm iqhutywa ngamashishini akwa-Israyeli kunye ne-Oregon, kwaye isityalo sase-Arizona siya kubajoyina ngokukhawuleza. Inqanaba lesivuno seemveliso ezifanelekileyo liyaphucuka ngesantya esikhawulezayo. Kunyaka ozayo, i-Intel iceba ukukhulula i-25% yeeprosesa ezingaphezulu, ngokukodwa ngokuqwalasela iimveliso ze-10nm. Kwikota yesithathu, imveliso ye-Agilex's 10nm programmable matrices yaqala. Ngo-2020, iteknoloji ye-10nm iya kuqala ukuvelisa i-accelerators ye-intelligence system, amacandelo ezikhululo zesiseko se-5G zentsapho ye-Snow Ridge, iiprosesa ze-Xeon ze-server kunye nezixhobo zonxibelelwano, kunye neprosesa yegraphics ecacileyo. Intloko ye-Intel yade yabiza isimboli sayo-i-DG1, kwaye yongeza ukuba kwikota edlulileyo inkampani sele ineisampulu ezisebenzayo zayo.
Kwakhona, i-CEO ye-Intel yenza iinkcazo malunga neenjongo zequmrhu zokubuyisela ubunkokeli bezobuchwepheshe kwinkalo ye-lithography. Umsebenzi sele uqhubeka ukuphuhlisa iteknoloji yenkqubo ye-5nm, nangona uRobert Swan wenqaba ukuchaza ixesha lokubonakala kwemveliso yokuqala ye-5nm. Kodwa ngoku uthetha ngokuphandle malunga neenjongo ze-Intel zokwazisa iprosesa yegraphics eyi-2021nm yecandelo leseva kwikota yesine ka-7. Ngokwengqiqo yakhe, ishedyuli yesibhengezo ivumela i-Intel ukuba ibange ukuba iya kuphinda ihambe kwinqanaba elilandelayo le-lithography yonke iminyaka emibini okanye emibini enesiqingatha.
Ukusuka kumbono wezobugcisa, xa ulawula iteknoloji ye-7 nm, i-Intel iya kuthathela ingqalelo imiphumo yeminqweno ekhutshiweyo xa ihambela kwi-10 nm, ngoko ke iya kukhetha ukwenza ngokucokisekileyo. Nangona kunjalo, kungaphakathi kweteknoloji ye-7nm apho i-ultra-hard ultraviolet (EUV) lithography iya kwaziswa. Njengoko sele kuphawuliwe ngaphezu kwesihlandlo esinye, i-Intel iya kukwenza oku kakhulu emva kwexesha eliphambili kunabo bakhuphisana nabo abaphambili i-TSMC kunye ne-Samsung.
Ukunqongophala kweprosesa akuyi koyiswa kulo nyaka
Kwisiganeko sokunika ingxelo, abameli beenkampani bathetha kakhulu kunye neenkcukacha malunga namanyathelo athathwe yi-Intel ukuphelisa iingxaki ngokufumaneka kwe-14-nm processors. Njengoko sele kuphawuliwe, imiqulu yemveliso yeprosesa yonyuswe ngama-25% xa kuthelekiswa neenyanga ezilithoba zokuqala zonyaka ophelileyo. Kwisiqingatha sesibini sonyaka, ukuthunyelwa kweeprosesa zabaxhamli be-Intel kuya kukhula ngeepesenti eziphindwe kabini xa kuthelekiswa nesiqingatha sokuqala, kwaye kunyaka ozayo i-Intel ilindele ukunyusa ukuthunyelwa kweeprosesa zabathengi nge-5% okanye i-9%, kuxhomekeke kwiimeko zemarike. Ngoku abaphathi benkampani bade bavume ukuba akunakwenzeka ukuba imfuno iya kukhula ngesantya esifanayo kulo nyaka uzayo, kwaye ezinye iivolumu zokubonelela ziyimfuneko kwi-inshurensi.
Kwikota yesine yalo nyaka, akuyi kuba nako ukunqoba ukunqongophala kwe-Intel processors, kodwa intloko yenkampani iyaqhubeka nokubanga ukuba ngoku ikakhulu icandelo lohlahlo lwabiwo-mali lwecandelo labaxumi elijongene nale nto. Ngo-2020, i-Intel inethemba lokuphelisa ngokupheleleyo intetho yokunqongophala kwiziganeko zokunika ingxelo ngekota, nangona ingacacisi ukuba leliphi ixesha lonyaka imeko kufuneka iqheleke ngokupheleleyo.
Uxinzelelo olukhethekileyo lokhuphiswano kulo nyaka U-Intel akazange ayive
Ewe, iingcali ezikhoyo kwisiganeko sokunika ingxelo ngekota azikwazanga ukumelana nokubuza imibuzo malunga nokusingqongileyo okukhuphisanayo, ekufuneka kube nzima ngakumbi kwi-Intel njengoko kukhutshwa iimveliso ezintsha ze-AMD. Bobabini i-CEO ye-Intel kunye ne-CFO abazange bakhathazeke xa besithi imeko yokhuphiswano kwiinyanga ezilithoba ezidlulileyo yayihambelana nokulindelwe yinkampani. Ngamanye amazwi, ukuza kuthi ga ngoku i-Intel ayiboni naziphi na izoyikiso kwindawo yayo kwintengiso. Uxanduva lwemali kwinkampani, uGeorge Davis, wachaza ukuba ukuba umonakalo omkhulu kwi-Intel ubangelwa kwicandelo lohlahlo lwabiwo-mali lwemarike, ke ukunqongophala kweprosesa zenkampani kubeka ityala kuphela.
URobert Swan wayecace ngakumbi kwimpendulo yakhe kumbuzo ofanayo malunga nokhuphiswano. Uyavuma ukuba i-Intel kufuneka isebenze kwindawo ekhuphisanayo, kodwa oku akuthinteli inkampani ukuba inyuse ingeniso yayo yonyaka nge-1,5 yeebhiliyoni zeedola kunye nokubala ekuphuculeni inzuzo yokusebenza. Ekuphela kwento etshintshileyo kwiinyanga ezilithoba ezidlulileyo, ngokutsho kwentloko ye-Intel, yintsebenzo yemali yenkampani, kwaye ibe ngcono. Uye wangxama ukongeza ukuba i-Intel ayithathi "imeko yokungakhathali" kwimbonakalo yayo ka-2020 kwaye iyaqonda ukuba indawo ekhuphisanayo iya kuba ngumngeni ngakumbi kulo nyaka uzayo. I-Intel iya kuqhubeka nokukhusela isikhundla sayo kwimarike ngamandla ayo onke.
