Our results reflect solid growth in desktop and professional GPUs, as well as our mobile processors, while we executed on key growth drivers for next year.
我們的業績反映了台式機和專業 GPU 以及我們的移動處理器的穩健增長,同時我們執行了明年的關鍵增長驅動因素。
Desktop consumer graphics revenue rose beyond usual seasonal increases due to strong global demand from PC gamers, driven by highly anticipated blockbuster PC games just starting to hit the shelves.
由於 PC 遊戲玩家的強勁全球需求,在備受期待的重磅 PC 遊戲剛剛開始上架的推動下,桌面消費圖形收入的增長超過了通常的季節性增長。
Electronic Arts' Battlefield 3, which launched on October 25, sold 5 million units in the first week, amid critical acclaim in the press, particularly for the highly-advanced PC version.
電子藝界的《戰地風雲 3》於 10 月 25 日推出,首周售出 500 萬台,受到媒體的一致好評,尤其是高度先進的 PC 版本。

新眼鏡可提供卓越的遊戲體驗,而 NVIDIA 的專利 LightBoost 技術可提供兩倍於我們上一代解決方案的亮度。
While sell-out attach rates remain stable, NVIDIA discrete graphics notebook revenues were lower in Q3, reflecting a market share drop of 4%.
儘管售罄率保持穩定,但 NVIDIA 獨立顯卡筆記本的收入在第三季度有所下降,反映出市場份額下降了 4%。
We believe this is due primarily to some Intel loss of shares in CPUs, and our absence from Apple notebooks in this design cycle.
我們認為這主要是由於英特爾在 CPU 中的一些份額損失,以及我們在這個設計週期中沒有使用蘋果筆記本電腦。
With attach rates stable, we believe we are well-positioned with design wins in both Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge notebooks to regain market share in upcoming quarters.
在附加率穩定的情況下,我們相信我們在 Sandy Bridge 和 Ivy Bridge 筆記本電腦的設計上都處於有利地位,可以在未來幾個季度重新獲得市場份額。
Sandy Bridge continues to drive growth for our discrete GPU business.
Sandy Bridge 繼續推動我們的離散 GPU 業務增長。
According to the latest data from both Mercury Research and John Petty Research, average discrete GPU attach rates remain constant overall at 36%, while integrated CPU continues to erode integrated graphics chipset market share.
根據 Mercury Research 和 John Petty Research 的最新數據,獨立 GPU 的平均附加率總體上保持穩定在 36%,而集成 CPU 繼續蠶食集成顯卡芯片組的市場份額。
According to Mercury Data, average discrete GPU attach rates have now remained flat, within a 2% variation quarter-to-quarter, for the last eight quarters.
根據 Mercury Data 的數據,過去 8 個季度的平均獨立 GPU 連接率現在保持平穩,季度變化幅度在 2% 以內。
According to recent press reviews from Forbes to Hardware Canucks, discrete GPUs remain the PC market's first choice for a PC upgrade.
根據最近從福布斯到 Hardware Canucks 的新聞評論,離散 GPU 仍然是 PC 市場升級 PC 的首選。
While integrated CPU graphics continue to lag far behind the performance of discrete GPUs, for the demanding gamer and enthusiast markets.
雖然集成 CPU 圖形繼續遠遠落後於獨立 GPU 的性能,但對於要求苛刻的遊戲玩家和發燒友市場而言。
While Sandy Bridge graphics are far below the minimum requirements for today's modern games and applications, the combination of a Sandy Bridge CPU with a GeForce discrete GPU continues to deliver the best price-performance solution for today's PCs.
雖然 Sandy Bridge 顯卡遠低於當今現代遊戲和應用程序的最低要求,但 Sandy Bridge CPU 與 GeForce 獨立 GPU 的組合繼續為當今的 PC 提供最佳性價比解決方案。
Our professional GPU business had a record revenue quarter on strong professional graphics market demand, and continued adoption of the Fermi generation Quadros.
我們的專業 GPU 業務在強勁的專業圖形市場需求以及繼續採用 Fermi 一代 Quadros 的情況下實現了創紀錄的季度收入。
During the quarter, we also announced that Oak Ridge National Laboratories, which operates the world's premier open science computing facility for the US Department of Energy, will deploy a revolutionary new super computer, Titan, based on NVIDIA Tesla GPUs.
在本季度,我們還宣佈為美國能源部運營全球首屈一指的開放科學計算設施的橡樹嶺國家實驗室將部署基於 NVIDIA Tesla GPU 的革命性新型超級計算機 Titan。
Its 18,000 Tesla GPUs will deliver roughly 85% of the peak compute performance of Titan.
其 18,000 個 Tesla GPU 將提供 Titan 峰值計算性能的大約 85%。
With the potential to deliver over 20 petaflops of peak performance, Titan, a Cray XK6 super computer, would be more than two times faster and three times more energy efficient than today's fastest super computer, Japan's K Computer.
Cray XK6 超級計算機 Titan 有可能提供超過 20 petaflops 的峰值性能,其速度將是當今最快的超級計算機日本 K 計算機的兩倍多,能效提高三倍以上。

我們很高興看到令人興奮的新 Tegra 2 設備投入生產,我們特別高興在兩天前推出了 Tegra 3 處理器和第一款 Tegra 3 平板電腦,即開創性的華碩 EeePad Transformer Prime。
It will be on shelves in the US within a few weeks, in time for the holiday season.
它將在幾週內在美國上架,正好趕上假期。
Tegra 3 ushers in the next generation of mobile SmartPhones and tablets.
Tegra 3 迎來了下一代移動智能手機和平板電腦。
It is the world's first quad-core mobile processor, delivering PC-like performance to mobile devices while enabling ultra low power consumption.
它是世界上第一款四核移動處理器,可為移動設備提供類似 PC 的性能,同時實現超低功耗。
The Tegra 3 processor provides up to three times the graphics performance of Tegra 2, and up to 61% lower power consumption.
Tegra 3 處理器的圖形性能是 Tegra 2 的三倍,功耗降低了 61%。
This translates into an industry-leading 12 hours of battery life for HD video playback.
這轉化為業界領先的 12 小時高清視頻播放電池續航時間。
The Tegra 3 processor implements a new patent-pending technology, known as variable symmetric multiprocessing, or VSMP.

We're expecting GeForce desktop to be up, and we're expecting that to be up nicely, driven by the hit games that Rob talked about.
我們期待 GeForce 桌面版能夠正常運行,並且在 Rob 談到的熱門遊戲的推動下,我們希望它能夠很好地啟動。
This is likely a multi-year cycle of growth for PC gaming.
這可能是 PC 遊戲的多年增長周期。
This happens every major game console cycle towards the second half of its product life, because PC technology advances on a regular basis, instead of once every seven to 10 years, and so you could imagine how PC technology is dramatically better than a game console today, and you're starting to see that now with the new generation of games that are coming out, such as Battlefield 3.
在其產品生命週期的後半段,每個主要遊戲機週期都會發生這種情況,因為 PC 技術會定期進步,而不是每 7 到 10 年一次,因此您可以想像 PC 技術如何比今天的遊戲機好得多,並且隨著新一代遊戲的問世,例如戰地 3,您現在開始看到這一點。
We're expecting notebook to be flat to slightly down.
我們預計筆記本將持平至略微下降。
We're expecting Quadro to be up.
我們期待 Quadro 能夠崛起。
We already had a record quarter this quarter.
本季度我們已經有了創紀錄的季度。
Quadro is benefiting from the Fermi adoption.
Quadro 受益於 Fermi 的採用。
It's also benefiting from the fact that China and India and other developing countries are increasingly moving to a design economy rather than just a manufacturing or second-sourcing economy.
它還受益於中國、印度和其他發展中國家越來越多地轉向設計經濟,而不僅僅是製造業或二次採購經濟。
And so when China and India particularly move to design economies, the single most important tool of modern design is a workstation, and our market share in workstations is very good, so we're going to benefit from that for quite some time.
所以當中國和印度特別轉向設計經濟時,現代設計最重要的工具就是工作站,我們在工作站的市場份額非常好,所以我們將在相當長的一段時間內從中受益。
Tesla is expected to be flat and mobile is expected to be flat, and we'll see how the devices that have gone into production this quarter do in the marketplace.
特斯拉預計持平,移動預計持平,我們將看看本季度投入生產的設備在市場上的表現如何。
I think we have something along the lines of about 17 or -- 16 or 17 new devices that went into production, many new tablets that Rob mentioned and new phones.
我認為我們有大約 17 或 - 16 或 17 台新設備投入生產,Rob 提到的許多新平板電腦和新手機。

In fact, for most of our high-end products, the ones that the PC gamers buy, are particularly low at the moment.
事實上,對於我們大多數高端產品,PC遊戲玩家購買的產品,目前特別低。
It reflects the demand that we're seeing.
它反映了我們所看到的需求。
With respect to Thailand, the projection that we gave reflects how we view the marketplace as of now.
關於泰國,我們給出的預測反映了我們目前對市場的看法。
If you look at the dynamics of the shortage, for some of our markets it's really a non-factor.
如果你看一下短缺的動態,對於我們的一些市場來說,這真的不是一個因素。
For example, mobile, obviously, because we don't use hard disc drive in mobile and you could argue that the money that isn't spent in mobile is in PCs could be spent in mobile.
例如,顯然是移動設備,因為我們在移動設備中不使用硬盤驅動器,您可能會爭辯說,沒有花在移動設備上的錢可以花在移動設備上。
You could also see that in some of our other segments where workstations, Tesla and the high-end PCs, because the value in the margins are so good for our PC OEMs in the times of shortage, those particular platforms and segments are prioritized.
您還可以看到,在我們的工作站、特斯拉和高端 PC 的其他一些細分市場中,因為在短缺時期,我們的 PC OEM 的利潤率價值非常好,因此這些特定平台和細分市場被優先考慮。
And so there's puts and gets and we'll see how it works out.
所以有puts和gets,我們會看看它是如何運作的。

Our first entry into the market is where performance and visual experience is very important and this is an area where we could add a lot of value.
我們第一次進入市場是性能和視覺體驗非常重要的領域,這是我們可以增加很多價值的領域。
Tegra 2 came into the segment that now people recognize to be quite an exciting segment and we called it the SuperPhone segment.
Tegra 2 進入了現在人們認為非常令人興奮的細分市場,我們將其稱為 SuperPhone 細分市場。
The SuperPhone segment is not insignificant, and as mobile devices become increasingly important to people's lives and they recognize in the second and the third SmartPhone that they bought how wonderful they are, they tend to buy up.
SuperPhone細分市場並非微不足道,隨著移動設備對人們的生活越來越重要,他們在第二款和第三款智能手機中認識到他們購買的智能手機有多棒,他們傾向於購買。
The characteristic is very consistent with that of people who buy cars to people who buy PCs.
這個特點很符合買車的人到買電腦的人的特點。
The first PC they buy, because they were not exactly sure how they would use it, they tend to buy in the mainstream segment and over time they buy a better and better one because they realize how much of their lives is involved in it.
他們購買的第一台個人電腦,因為他們不確定如何使用它,他們傾向於在主流市場購買,隨著時間的推移,他們會購買越來越好的個人電腦,因為他們意識到他們的生活中有多少參與其中。
We see the same thing in the SuperPhone segment, that this is likely to be a good growth segment for us.
我們在 SuperPhone 領域也看到了同樣的情況,這對我們來說可能是一個很好的增長領域。
We have more design wins in Tegra 3 today than we had at Tegra 2.

Motorola was one that I'm personally disappointed in not winning this cycle around, but net, we have more designs and more OEMs going at the moment, going into next year.
摩托羅拉是我個人對沒有贏得這個週期感到失望的一個,但是淨,我們目前有更多的設計和更多的原始設備製造商,進入明年。
As a result, as related to the ultimate plan, our goal is to continue to drive the SuperPhone segment for information and features in the segment, but in addition to that with the Icera acquisition we're now able to integrate the application processor and (inaudible) into a single processor.
因此,與最終計劃相關,我們的目標是繼續推動 SuperPhone 細分市場的信息和功能,但除了收購 Icera 之外,我們現在能夠集成應用處理器和(聽不見)到單個處理器中。

這是我們公司目前非常關注的一個重點。
Part of our increase in OpEx is related to our efforts in this area.

We were surprised by the Amazon Fire, but frankly, we're not going to be surprised again and so we're obviously very excited about Amazon, and we're going to do our best to be a partner of theirs someday and so I think those were the two main ones that I can really highlight.
我們對 Amazon Fire 感到驚訝,但坦率地說,我們不會再感到驚訝了,所以我們顯然對 Amazon 感到非常興奮,我們將盡最大努力成為他們的合作夥伴,所以我認為這是我真正可以強調的兩個主要問題。
With respect to Tegra 2 versus Tegra 3, Tegra 2 will continue to ship into the marketplace.
關於 Tegra 2 與 Tegra 3,Tegra 2 將繼續投放市場。
Three new phones were introduced just this week, or just this last quarter, and we're expecting to see those phones continue to ship.
本週或上個季度剛剛推出了三款新手機,我們預計這些手機將繼續出貨。
Tegra 3 is going to come into the marketplace in tablets ranging from 7-inch all the way to 10-inch, and the reason why Tegra 3 is such a -- both very high performance, as well as super affordable, is because the battery life that is made possible by the technologies that are inside Tegra 3 that we talked about.
Tegra 3 將從 7 英寸一直到 10 英寸的平板電腦進入市場,而 Tegra 3 之所以如此——既高性能又超級實惠,是因為電池我們談到的 Tegra 3 中的技術使生活成為可能。
Rob talked about variable SMP, this fifth core, which is essentially like an electric hybrid engine for Tegra 3.
Rob 談到了可變 SMP,這是第五個核心,它本質上就像 Tegra 3 的電動混合動力引擎。
It consumes so little energy that the battery life could be much, much longer for Tegra 3 tablets.
它消耗的能量如此之少,以至於 Tegra 3 平板電腦的電池壽命可能要長得多。
As a result, when battery life is long and the power is -- and the processor is very energy efficient, you can save enormous amount of cost around the system.
因此,當電池壽命長、功率高且處理器非常節能時,您可以節省大量系統成本。
There's a second great technology in Tegra 3.
Tegra 3 中還有第二項偉大的技術。
It's called [die dim] and it's the ability to per pixel, per frame, per scene, to modulate the backlight so quickly that we over a long period of time reduce the amount of backlight intensity, backlight energy by nearly half.
它被稱為 [die dim],它能夠以每像素、每幀、每場景快速調製背光,從而在很長一段時間內將背光強度和背光能量降低近一半。
We save as much power in the backlight without changing the visual fidelity at all to save essentially the entire power used by our chip, and so saving power, energy efficiency translates to reduced system bill of material.
我們在不改變視覺保真度的情況下在背光中節省了盡可能多的功率,從而基本上節省了我們芯片使用的全部功率,因此節省功率,能源效率轉化為減少系統材料清單。
And as a result of those things people are finding that they could take the Tegra 3 tablets both into very high segments because of its performance, as well as into very affordable devices like 7-inch and such.
由於這些事情,人們發現他們可以將 Tegra 3 平板電腦帶入非常高的細分市場,因為它的性能,以及價格非常實惠的設備,如 7 英寸等。
And then of course, Tegra 3 is going to revolutionize the SmartPhone market again by bringing quad-core and a new level of capability this year and it's going to be pretty exciting year for us on SuperPhones.
當然,今年 Tegra 3 將通過帶來四核和新的功能水平再次徹底改變智能手機市場,這對我們來說將是 SuperPhones 令人興奮的一年。

The vast majority of the increase is coming from the very significant increase in design wins that we have in several areas.
絕大多數增長來自我們在幾個領域的設計勝利的顯著增長。
We have more notebook design wins for the Ivy Bridge cycle than we've ever had in notebooks.
我們在 Ivy Bridge 週期中獲得的筆記本設計勝出比我們以往在筆記本中獲得的更多。
And this is likely the most successful notebook cycle we've ever experienced, and so we've got a lot of engineers dedicated to getting those notebooks into production.
這可能是我們經歷過的最成功的筆記本週期,因此我們有很多工程師致力於將這些筆記本投入生產。
The reason for our success I believe is our Kepler generation of GPU was designed for intense energy efficiency, and with energy efficiency, we were able to translate that to simultaneously higher performance, as well as longer battery life.
我相信我們成功的原因是我們的 Kepler 一代 GPU 專為提高能源效率而設計,並且通過能源效率,我們能夠同時將其轉化為更高的性能和更長的電池壽命。
And so that's the first part.
這就是第一部分。
The second thing is, we have more SmartPhones in design as a result of Tegra 3.
第二件事是,由於 Tegra 3,我們在設計上有更多的智能手機。
We have more tablets in design as a result of Tegra 3 and on top of that, we have Windows 8 tablets and devices that we're building all over the world.
由於 Tegra 3,我們設計了更多的平板電腦,最重要的是,我們擁有 Windows 8 平板電腦和我們正在世界各地製造的設備。
All of those design wins translate to quite a bit of customer engineering, customer-facing engineering to build these exquisite devices, and then there's a portion of it is that is related to 28-nanometer tape-out of new processors that will go into production shortly.
所有這些設計勝利都轉化為相當多的客戶工程,面向客戶的工程來構建這些精美的設備,然後其中一部分與將投入生產的新處理器的 28 納米流片有關不久。

It's a couple of things, I think.
我認為這是幾件事。
Partly, you have to ask Motorola.
部分,你必須問摩托羅拉。
I think that, one, our rhythm is once every year, and Tegra 2 came into production a year ago.
我想,一個,我們的節奏是每年一次,而Tegra 2在一年前就投產了。
Tegra 3's in production now.
Tegra 3 現已投入生產。
And for Motorola, they had their own internal rhythm and OMAP 4 was right in between Tegra 2 and Tegra 3 and they felt that OMAP 4 was a better processor than Tegra 2.
對於摩托羅拉,他們有自己的內部節奏,OMAP 4 正好介於 Tegra 2 和 Tegra 3 之間,他們認為 OMAP 4 是比 Tegra 2 更好的處理器。
Obviously, I feel different, but Motorola made their choice.
顯然,我感覺不同,但摩托羅拉做出了他們的選擇。
Second thing is Tegra 3 is obviously more -- surely more value than OMAP 4 by a lot.
第二件事是 Tegra 3 顯然比 OMAP 4 更有價值——肯定比 OMAP 4 更有價值。
I think at this point it's very, very clear that Tegra 3 is in a completely different class than OMAP 4, so it was difficult for us to be price-competitive relative to OMAP 4, and I think those two things play a role.
我認為在這一點上,Tegra 3 與 OMAP 4 處於完全不同的類別中,因此我們很難在價格上與 OMAP 4 相比具有競爭力,我認為這兩件事發揮了作用。
We all have different perspectives on when new technology could be adopted in the marketplace and we felt that last year was the year of the dual core processor and dual core processors are dual core processors.
對於什麼時候可以在市場上採用新技術,我們都有不同的看法,我們覺得去年是雙核處理器的一年,雙核處理器是雙核處理器。
It's been done.
它已經完成了。
Tegra 3 is bringing a new level of capability with variable SMP, five processors on a chip, as well as energy efficiency that's never been seen before in the mobile world.
Tegra 3 通過可變 SMP、片上五個處理器以及移動世界前所未有的能效帶來了新的功能水平。
The combination of a much higher capability and performance, as well as much, much higher efficiency, and therefore battery life, we felt that we could bring a new capability to the mobile era, so that was our perspective.
更高的能力和性能,以及更高的效率和電池壽命的結合,我們認為我們可以為移動時代帶來新的能力,所以這就是我們的觀點。
I think it's becoming increasingly clear that by the early part of next year SuperPhones will have quad core and we'll see how it plays out from here.
我認為越來越清楚的是,到明年年初,SuperPhones 將擁有四核,我們將看看它是如何發揮作用的。
We'll work super hard to get back into Motorola, and obviously, a very important partner.

It's our understanding that GI's OMAP sells for about $12 to $14, where I believe NVIDIA said that Tegra ranges from $15 to $25 depending on the platform so I guess given OMAP's success on the ICS platform, would you expect any downward pressure to ASPs for mobile?
據我們了解,GI 的 OMAP 售價約為 12 至 14 美元,我相信 NVIDIA 表示 Tegra 的價格在 15 至 25 美元之間,具體取決於平台,所以我想鑑於 OMAP 在 ICS 平台上的成功,您是否預計移動 ASP 會面臨下行壓力?

如果我們還在談論 Tegra 3,那麼沒有 15 美元的 Tegra 3。
It's higher than that.
比那個還高。
But Tegra 3 and OMAP 4 aren't targeting the same generation of devices, and we're not targeting the same market.
但是 Tegra 3 和 OMAP 4 並不是針對同一代設備,我們也不是針對同一個市場。
Tegra 3 is designed for SuperPhones.
Tegra 3 專為 SuperPhones 設計。
Tegra 3 is designed for next-generation tablets.
Tegra 3 專為下一代平板電腦而設計。
When you compare on a device-to-device level, processor-to-processor level, it's really hard to make that comparison.
當您在設備到設備級別、處理器到處理器級別進行比較時,很難進行這種比較。
When you compare it at a system level, Tegra 3 is about cost-equivalent, if sometimes cost advantaged relative to last generation devices including Tegra 2.
當您在系統級別進行比較時,Tegra 3 與包括 Tegra 2 在內的上一代設備相比有時具有成本優勢,但成本相當。
The reason for that is because Tegra 3 is so energy-efficient that it actually reduces your system BoM cost by a fair amount.
這樣做的原因是因為 Tegra 3 非常節能,它實際上可以相當多地降低您的系統 BoM 成本。
Variable SMP and die dim, our image processing technology, makes it possible for us to reduce some $10 worth of system reduction, relative to last generation, and still be higher performance and still be longer battery life.
可變 SMP 和 die dim 是我們的圖像處理技術,與上一代相比,我們可以減少大約 10 美元的系統成本,並且仍然具有更高的性能和更長的電池壽命。
Those things, when taken into consideration, is explaining why now that people understand what Tegra 3 can do, and they realize it's really the right platform to invest in going forward.
考慮到這些因素,可以解釋為什麼現在人們了解 Tegra 3 可以做什麼,並且他們意識到它確實是投資未來的正確平台。
The advantage of investing in Tegra 3 now is even more important when you consider the processor we have beyond it which is the integration of Tegra and LTE modem.
現在投資 Tegra 3 的優勢更加重要,因為您考慮到我們擁有的處理器超越它,即 Tegra 和 LTE 調製解調器的集成。

This cycle, our market share on the Intel platform was north of 50% overall.
這個週期,我們在英特爾平台上的市場份額總體上超過了 50%。

As a result you have very high performance when you need it and you have extremely long battery life when you need it.

I think starting with Honeycomb 3.2 and surely all these various form factors and price points and device sizes and then Ice Cream Sandwich will surely accelerate that.
我認為從 Honeycomb 3.2 開始,當然還有所有這些不同的外形尺寸、價格點和設備尺寸,然後 Ice Cream Sandwich 肯定會加速這一進程。
I'm very enthusiastic about the Android tablets.
我對 Android 平板電腦非常感興趣。
Having said that, the Android phone, the market is just enormous and growing quickly.
話雖如此,Android 手機的市場非常龐大且增長迅速。
I think in the United States it's already the highest market share.
我認為在美國它已經是最高的市場份額。
I think the last month or last quarter, it reached something like 64% market share in the United States.
我認為上個月或上個季度,它在美國的市場份額達到了 64%。
Pretty extraordinary growth, and in China, Android or the base of Android surely is growing very quickly as well.
相當驚人的增長,在中國,Android 或 Android 的基礎肯定也在快速增長。
I think the SmartPhone market is going to continue to be very vibrant on Android, and that will only fuel and that will only feed the Android tablet market as well over time, and I think we're seeing all of those dynamics now.
我認為 Android 上的智能手機市場將繼續充滿活力,而且隨著時間的推移,這只會推動 Android 平板電腦市場的發展,我認為我們現在看到了所有這些動態。
So I'm much more enthusiastic about the tablet today than I was when it first launched and I think that results would suggest that's right.
所以我今天對這款平板電腦的熱情比剛推出時要高得多,我認為結果表明這是正確的。

Help me understand how the economics of Tegra 3 works.
幫助我了解 Tegra 3 的經濟原理。
You talked about taking out $10 of BoM, but obviously in a market where we're seeing more and more low cost tablets being launched at ASP above $15, I just want to understand what are you taking out when you're talking about $10 worth of BoM?
您談到了從 BoM 中取出 10 美元,但顯然在我們看到越來越多的低成本平板電腦以高於 15 美元的 ASP 推出的市場中,我只是想了解當您談論價值 10 美元時您在取出什麼物料清單?
And to understand how, with $15 ASP or above, Tegra 3 can be economical within the lower-cost tablet market.
並且要了解在 15 美元或以上的平均售價下,Tegra 3 如何在低成本平板電腦市場中變得經濟。
- President, CEO
- President, CEO
Well, without being too specific, because I don't think it really matters.
好吧,不用太具體,因為我認為這並不重要。
I think the key is that the higher your power, the more you have to spend electronically to support it.
我認為關鍵是你的權力越高,你就越需要在電子上花費更多的錢來支持它。
And the lower your power, the more energy-efficient you are, the more you could reduce system cost.
而且您的功率越低,您的能源效率越高,您就越能降低系統成本。
Or use external devices that are much more affordable, but consumes a little bit more energy, because the core processor, which is where most of the energy is consumed, is so efficient.
或者使用更實惠但消耗更多能量的外部設備,因為消耗大部分能量的核心處理器非常高效。
When you're looking at a tablet, and then you think about an application processor that's about $20, it doesn't represent a very large percentage of the overall cost, and so the application processor is often not the issue.
當您查看平板電腦時,您會想到大約 20 美元的應用處理器,它並不佔總成本的很大比例,因此應用處理器通常不是問題。
The issue is everything else, and what we've done is we've taken a holistic system approach and we thought about the energy consumed by the backlight.
問題是其他一切,我們所做的是我們採用了整體系統方法,並考慮了背光所消耗的能量。
We thought about the energy consumed by the memory, and the rest of the system and we were able to dramatically reduce that through architecture, and that's implemented in Tegra 3.
我們考慮了內存和系統其餘部分消耗的能量,我們能夠通過架構顯著減少它,這在 Tegra 3 中實現。
So that's at the highest level, what we've done, and I think that our customers are really excited by the system cost reduction we were able to bring them.
這是我們所做的最高水平,我認為我們的客戶對我們能夠為他們帶來的系統成本降低感到非常興奮。

In terms of the handset design wins you're getting, Tegra 2 started off with quite a few handsets, and obviously, the revenue started out strong and flat lined for a while.
就您獲得的手機設計而言,Tegra 2 一開始就有不少手機,很明顯,收入開始時強勁且持平。
As we look at design wins for Tegra 3, I have two questions.
當我們看到 Tegra 3 的設計勝利時,我有兩個問題。
How much more confident are you that some of these design wins will suddenly translate to big revenue?
您對其中一些設計勝利會突然轉化為巨額收入更有信心嗎?
This is not something within your control.
這不在你的控制範圍內。
I'm trying to gauge your level of confidence.
我正在嘗試衡量你的自信程度。
With more design wins, do you have to spend more OpEx to support it?
隨著更多的設計勝利,您是否需要花費更多的 OpEx 來支持它?
If your revenue doesn't come through, is there any flexibility to being able to make model a little bit less saddled with higher fixed costs while the design wins are not necessarily shipping as aggressively.
如果您的收入沒有實現,是否有任何靈活性可以使模型少受較高固定成本的負擔,而設計獲勝不一定會如此積極地發貨。
I don't know if you understand what I'm trying to say.
我不知道你是否明白我想說什麼。
I'm just trying to understand, if I look at Tegra 2 into Tegra 3, how should I believe the revenue will come through?
我只是想了解,如果我將 Tegra 2 看成 Tegra 3,我應該如何相信收入會通過?

I'm more confident in Tegra 3 at this point than I was in Tegra 2 at this point a year ago.
在這一點上,我對 Tegra 3 比一年前對 Tegra 2 更有信心。
We have more design wins.
我們有更多的設計勝利。
We're better at it.
我們更擅長。
We surely are much better at it today than we were a year ago.
我們今天肯定比一年前做得更好。
We have a lot more engineers who are engaging with a lot more customers, working on a lot more devices that will enter into the marketplace earlier than we entered into this year.
我們有更多的工程師與更多的客戶打交道,他們正在開發比我們今年更早進入市場的更多設備。
By the time we started shipping, it was really dribbles and drabs in April, and I think we're going to go into this coming year with a pretty good running start.
到我們開始發貨時,四月份的運球真的很單調,我認為我們將以一個不錯的開端進入新的一年。
If you're asking me about my confidence, I'm surely more confident now with the year of building mobile devices behind me and the level of expertise that we've been able to develop over the years.
如果您要問我的信心,我現在肯定更有信心,因為我已經過去了一年構建移動設備以及我們多年來能夠發展的專業水平。
And I think the reputation of our Company, the trust that our OEMs have in us, and the leadership position we have with our processor, Tegra 3, is pretty unambiguous.
我認為我們公司的聲譽、原始設備製造商對我們的信任以及我們在處理器 Tegra 3 方面的領導地位是非常明確的。
I surely feel more confident today than I did on the Tegra 2 cycle.
我今天肯定比我在 Tegra 2 循環時更有信心。
With respect to investment, we're investing in both our notebook PC growth as well as our mobile devices growth, and we believe that we're addressing very large TAMs, and irrespective of whatever experience, albeit, I'm more confident right now in your scenario even in that scenario that you hypothesized about, I'm fully committed to this marketplace.
在投資方面,我們既投資於筆記本電腦的增長,也投資於移動設備的增長,我們相信我們正在解決非常大的 TAM,不管經驗如何,儘管我現在更有信心在您的場景中,即使在您假設的場景中,我也完全致力於這個市場。
I believe that the future is visual.
我相信未來是視覺的。
I believe that the future is mobile, and we're going to invest into it.
我相信未來是移動的,我們將對其進行投資。
We're looking at a $25 billion TAM in some four, five years, and we're going to go after it.
我們正在考慮在大約四五年內實現 250 億美元的 TAM,我們將繼續努力。
So I think irrespective of any unexpected hiccup in the short term, we're going to stay determined and focused on building a great Company.
因此,我認為,無論短期內出現任何意外的問題,我們都將保持決心並專注於建立一家偉大的公司。

The Denver architecture is intended to extend the ARM instruction set into segments where ARM is not naturally likely to go themselves.
Denver 架構旨在將 ARM 指令集擴展到 ARM 自然不可能自己去的部分。
And it's designed to bring a new level of performance and efficiency to the ARM instruction set beyond where they currently are.
它旨在將 ARM 指令集的性能和效率提升到一個新的水平,超越目前的水平。
And it's not because ARM is not able to design these things, it's because our market focus is perfectly aligned with ARM in some areas like mobile and tablets and clamshells.
這並不是因為 ARM 無法設計這些東西,而是因為我們的市場重點在某些領域與 ARM 完全一致,例如移動設備、平板電腦和翻蓋。
