“Breaking Wind 8676.” The “Breaking Wind 8676” effectively enhances China’s self-reliance on 5G network core equipment.

The chip can be widely used in commercial applications such as 5G cloud base stations and home base stations..

I found a snapshot. Basically, they confirmed it is SMIC 7nm and will reveal the details next week.

I think this is probably a fake. If it's real, there would actually be an English article of this somewhere which I cannot find.

this is the only article I can find TechInsights commenting on this issue

The phone contains a new Kirin 9000s processor from Huawei's HiSilicon chip division, which appears to use advanced technology from SMIC, according to Dan Hutcheson, an analyst with TechInsights.

If it uses 7+nm or 5nm processes, production would likely be a very expensive process, Hutcheson said.

If he was certain this is 7nm or N+2, he probably would've said so.

More importantly, I don't quite understand why TechInsights would start attaching names like N+2 to SMIC process when previously it just said this is 7nm.

yes, not sure how important this really is. I mean they already have 5G chips before. It's unclear to me what the reconfigurable part brings to the table.

I think the weixin account is legit. They removed the article for unknown reason. Maybe protest from Huawei.

Look at their previous post.

They really, seriously, need to get a new name for this chip or it will never sell outside China.
