Today's core language

Fairchild Semiconductor Inc., the US power management IC maker, threw out a sale in October. In November, ON Semiconductor Corp. said it was willing to buy, and then reached an agreement with Fairchild Semiconductor, but 12 On the 14th, Fairchild Semiconductor issued a statement saying that one buyer took the initiative to offer a purchase price of US$21.7 per share at a higher price last week. According to informed sources, the buyer is China Resources Group and Beijing Qingxin Huachuang Investment. A group of companies that manage the company.

First, the semiconductor

1. Ziguang's shareholding in Taiwan's IC design was blocked by the Taiwan Legislative Yuan. China Ziguang Group intends to acquire Taiwan Semiconductor's three major packaging and testing plants, causing doubts. The Legislative Yuan yesterday (15) agreed to reach a consensus in the ruling and opposition parties, and will make a major resolution in the general budget, clearly defining the semiconductor design industry in Taiwan's sensitive technology and industry. At this stage, the government must not open up land investment. The Democratic Progressive Party presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen pointed out yesterday that the purple-light merger case is quite serious. The purple government has the funds and influence of the Chinese government. It has not only acquired control over individual companies, but also obtained upstream and downstream industries. Controlling key forces is a great threat to Taiwan's industry. Taiwan's social concerns are also deep. There is no open space until doubts are resolved.

Second, intelligent hardware

1, pass Apple to develop a new generation of pressure sensing technology, is expected to support the iPad. According to foreign media AppleInsider, people familiar with the matter said that Apple is developing a new generation of pressure sensing technology, which will not only be applied to the iPhone, but also to the iPad. Although Apple has no plans to add 3D Touch to the iPad Air 3, the company is developing new technology and hopes to offer a new "3D Touch" for the iPhone and iPad, including the 12.9-inch iPad Pro. At present, 3D Touch mainly judges the gesture by detecting the tightness between the dimensions of the iPhone screen, and the new pressure touch technology that Apple is developing will also be based on the same principle. Thanks to 3D Touch, the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus have three operating dimensions: tap, tap and re-press, and touch sensing is more sensitive.

Third, automotive electronics

1. Google driverless cars develop independently or compete with Uber. Google’s driverless car division will become an independent company of Google’s parent company, Alphabet, in 2016, and industry insiders predict that the program will be launched before the driverless car is officially commercialized. Currently, Google's driverless car team members are from the automotive and computer science teams, and are part of the Google X Lab, which was previously responsible for the development of other projects such as Google Glass. According to the news of Bloomberg, Google’s decision to independently develop the driverless car division is clearly the same strategy as Alphabet’s independent development of the life sciences department, and will become an important part of Google’s new field of “hegemony” in the future. .

2. Ford's self-driving car Fusion Hydrid will be on the road next year. According to foreign media reports, Ford plans to bring its self-driving car Fusion Hydrid to the streets of California for testing next year, which will give Google's self-driving car a new partner. It is reported that Ford is the latest manufacturer to obtain a license for the California Autopilot Auto Test Program, which allows them to test their products on real streets. Fusion Hydrid has been tested for a while in Michigan's replica city, MCity, and in the California test, the project will be handled by Ford's Palo Alto R&D Center. The center was established in January this year and currently employs more than 100 people. The main research directions include autonomous driving systems, driver-assisted safety functions, and new automotive materials.

Fourth, the Internet of Things

1. IBM established Watson IoT's global headquarters and used artificial intelligence to enter the Internet of Things. Today, IBM has opened up new channels for its AI system, Watson, and includes a new set of application programming interfaces (APIs) that allow other companies and organizations to enter data into the brain for analysis. Watson is IBM's cognitive computer, which beat humans in guessing games, helps doctors diagnose patients, and helps financial experts recommend products to customers. Now, it has a new mission to help IBM customers handle the huge amounts of data in the Internet of Things. A few days ago, IBM's Watson IoT global headquarters opened in Munich, which is the biggest action of the Big Blue in Europe in 20 years. Also open are some powerful APIs, including speech recognition, machine learning, prediction and analysis services, video and image recognition services, and analysis services for unstructured text data. These services will allow users to add complex new features and user interfaces to their products.

2, Huawei and Haier promote smart homes to the Internet of Everything. Xinhuanet Beijing December 16 (Reporter Gao Wei) Huawei recently launched the "Huawei HiLink Plan" smart home strategy, and explored the construction through cooperation with Haier Group in intelligent module integration, interactive control of mobile terminals and home appliances, and data sharing. The industry's unified communication interconnection standards and agreements promote the evolution of smart homes to the Internet of Everything. According to Zhao Ming, president of Huawei Glory, at present, China's smart home industry is still in its infancy, and each brand manufacturer is in a row. The market is full of incompatible smart home apps and products. Consumers' home appliances are often not very good. Connected to each other and experienced a big discount. Huawei and Glory will cooperate with more and more manufacturers to open up the "gap" between brands and products, so that devices of different brands can be interconnected.
