Intel announces processor of Atom C2000 series to have clock drawback

.

.

Cover according to British media The Register, after the product that processor of series of Intel Atom C2000 has ─ of ─ of a major flaw to carry this SOC processor is using more than 18 months, the product becomes likely " brick " . At the beginning of this month, intel is discussing the telephone conference that money of the four seasons signed up for last year to go up, presiding and financial Guan Luobai is special · Shi Wang (Robert Swan) express, the character of a product affected this season to gain profit, force this company obligate a batch of cash will solve this problem. "We are aware of a product to have quality problem in the four seasons, this product falls in certain use state and time limit, expectation of summary prep above is worth fault rate, accordingly we left brushstroke cash to handle this issue. " he says again: "We think to be able to use a small design to amend will solve, we are solving this problem hand in hand with the client. " of coincidence is, cisco is at the beginning of Feburary also issued an advisory warning, the way that expresses to sell before November 16, 2016 by implement, the clock element that a breakdown contained in the product such as fiber-optic network, security and switching equipment (Clock) , cause 18 months after running, malfunctioning machine rate will be higher and higher. When be asked whether Intel offers defective electron product, cisco spokesman tells a reporter, this company does not plan to publish the name of the supplier. Strange, what is the product that Intel says to there is a problem after all? And the company between where makes the breakdown clock component that Cisco says again? Till January 2017, intel edited file of product of Atom C2000 series, point out among them, chip circuitry contains clock of a blemish. Caption is " the likelihood brings about a system to cannot switch on the mobile phone or suspend an operation " AVR. 54 files middle finger goes out, the Count Bus Clock of foot of Atom C2000 low Pin is outputted (LPC ＿ CLKOUT0 and LPC ＿ CLKOUT1) may permanent quit the job, what does this meeting have major effect? Because be opposite the other component on lead plane board (include to guide ROM) run going up is necessary clock question mark, should time stop, the electronic cell that causes the others also can stop to run together, switch on the mobile phone naturally to be able to give an issue repeatedly. Intel spokesman expresses in the email of reply reporter: "Using for a long time highly for years below, may produce such circuit element deterioration, this already the character post under Intel. " mention again in the file of Intel: "If LPC clock cannot produce effect, systematic general also cannot switch on the mobile phone again. " this description just says with Cisco the product is run quite long the condition that component may produce a problem, happen to have the same view. "Once component appears breakdown, the system will stop to run, cannot switch on the mobile phone, also cannot reply whack. " the adviser of Cisco points out so namely, look low-key will mysteriously go mysteriously, real solution is apparent. The reporter also enquires Intel, whether is the problem component that mentions in Cisco advisory report the product of Intel? Because company policy cannot comment on client product,Intel expresses, cannot admit so or denying its chip problem is the crucial factor that affects Cisco product breakdown. However the product of ASA 55xx series that Cisco can malfunction, carry the chip of Atom C2000 SOC of Intel namely really. Intel rejects to respond to detail to continue to ask Intel offers the processor of Atom C2000 series that has clock drawback when the reporter, when begin and stop the specific details of shipment, intel rejected to respond to. Nevertheless Intel government corrigendum states C2xxx Atoms is very flimsy when B0 phase really, malfunction easily, and these component are shipment began 2013, series product has: C2308, C2338, C2350, C2358, C2508, C2518, C2530, C2538, C2550, C2558, C2718, C2730, C2738, C2750 and C2758. The chip of Atom C2000 series that Intel rejects a response to more or less have a problem after all already shipment, and amend this problem to will cause how old loss to the company. However, intel had considered how to solve the method of blemish of processor of Atom C2000 series. This company spokesman says in an email: "Already on some product line, have a solution. " , " Intel will be carried out in new product and test and verify rehabilitate of a diminutive silicon, in order to solve this problem. " the staple market of processor of Intel Atom C2000 is to lay network equipment, store server of system, miniature, had used the firm that will make a product and suffers an effect possibly not merely Cisco, still include the well-known company such as Dell and Synology, Asrock, Aaeon, HP, Infortrend, Lanner, NEC, Newisys, Netgate, Netgear, Quanta, Supermicro, ZNYX Networks, ASRock Rack, IXsystems, Seagate, Sophos. According to description of The Register reporter, the Synology that has Taiwan only it seems that at present (group sunshine science and technology) active and respond to problem of this component blemish to its client transparently, because Synology uses the clients of product of DS1815 model NAS already redound produces hardware really the state of comprehensive breakdown; And the C2538 processor that the core of DS1815 ＋ is one of series of Intel Atom C2000. Synology is investigating this issue together with Intel at present, intel also contact Synology " should avoid to be spent again, long use " , nevertheless Synology issues such statement: "In this hour, still show without any evidence, AVR54 can bring about the DiskStation that provides set of Intel Atom C2000 or RackStation product fault rate to be able to be compared leave factory with time the product of tie-in and other processor is expensive, however once have other sign when, synology will release new advisory theme. " " here at the same time, still can continue to use your device surely, if you meet with,encounter any problems however, these will support group processing by ours, below the firm of tender for use that all equipment products still provide in us. The public has know the inside story to because a lot of manufacturers follow Intel autograph to have,counterpoise prohibit releasing or discuss concerned Intel product the agreement of relevant technology issue, so a lot of companies encounter this problem can 3 close its mouth, ground of talk in a roundabout way will reply consumer, e.g. aforementioned Synology up-to-date still express very conservatively, AVR. 54 have direct correlation with the machine attaint not likely of this company. However of this incident germinant, be began from last year, the product of Synology is narrated before saying for example, its problem was last year began to have get one's own back of add of add of land of the person that use on June 11 (still thinking the earliest is breakdown of power source adapter) ; The Rack Mini ITX C2550D4I DDR3 1333 of ASRock lead plane board also is judged in network product brushstroke was written down on analyse " after using 8 months broken " ; Have a reader to The Register redound: "The leader that I have an ASRock C2750D4I board (the Mini ITX machine of use Intel Atom C2750 board) in 2 years after the use of 2 months broken. Yes, just keep firm more than two months! Acknowledgment ASRock free changed machine board, however ASRock says this machine board is repaired without method only, send a substitute next, but original machine board why to meet indescribable broken, did not explain. " because information is opaque, each manufacturer still thinks the product that is his is done badly possibly at the beginning, the result was to spend a lot of time to find out severally, just find problem place, and the problem that Atom C2000 series causes, had perplexed each manufacturer at least one year half. But the product that consumer uses is ineffable and broken, the manufacturer alludes the flaw that is Intel chip can obscurely only however, reclaim silently processing, do not know so consumer is to blame product manufacturer of course on the head, is not elder brother Intel. If Intel breakfast speaks out, point out cooperative works chamber of commerce gets the product of the influence, those pointing out that the product will be unidentified is narrated before the likelihood won't have the reason attaint, forum that folds high-rise discusses string together and comment on is produced to talk on the line, make cooperative manufacturer bore a surname of black boiler, loss praise.
