There are only five basic electronic components:
Resistance, capacitance, inductance, diode, transistor,
It is just a few simple things that have made extremely complex CPUs, GPUs, and various powerful dedicated/general-purpose chips.
The path to hardware development:
Discrete components, circuit boards, small integrated circuits, large-scale integrated circuits, and programmable chips are all silicon-based,
The fields currently being explored include holographic storage, biological computing, and optical computing.
Each time the hardware has a breakthrough in technology, it will develop by leaps and bounds,
Software changes are slow and painful.
The software industry also hopes to learn the development ideas of hardware integrated circuits,
Using software components to solve problems such as reuse, stability, and flexibility in software development,
But I think it seems unrealistic.
Why? Because:
When a hardware component (Integrated Circuit) adds a function to the systemProvideCorresponding computing power,
When a software component (software module) adds a function to the systemConsumptionCorresponding computing power,
For example,
You can upgrade your computer's graphics card to improve the image performance. Your computer's computing performance will not be affected too much,
But what would happen if I installed a software-implemented video card that allows the CPU to calculate the 3D effect?
Therefore, it is easy to imagine that,
A hardware product composed of hundreds of Integrated Circuits. It has powerful functions,
A software system composed of hundreds of components may have powerful functions, but its performance must be unsatisfactory.
