Por qué importa
Huawei has been using a new scaling law, referred to as "Her's Law" by peers, to design and mass produce chips for the past six years. This law replaces traditional geometric miniaturization with time scaling. The company unveiled an innovative core technology called LogicFolding architecture based on this law.
During He’s keynote speech delivered at the 2026 IEEE International Symposium on Circuits and Systems (ISCAS) in Shanghai on Monday, she said Huawei had been using the new scaling law to design and mass produce 381 chips over the past six years.
Also dubbed “Her’s Law” by He’s peers, the new principle proposes a paradigm shift that replaced the traditional geometric miniaturisation of transistors with time (τ) scaling.
Based on the law, He also unveiled an innovative core technology called LogicFolding architecture, which can reduce the resistive and capacitive load of signal propagation, ultimately boosting transistor density.
