然而，随着硬件巨头Intel向"全栈AI公司"快速转型，这种绝对垄断正在被打破。 早在2019年，Intel就发布了oneAPI 跨架构编程模型，旨在让代码在 CPU、GPU、NPU 之间通用。这意味着开发 者用一套代码即可调用 Intel 的所有算力，降低了迁移成本。 来源：快科技官方 一、前言：当前最具性价比的96GB/192GB AI推理卡 oneAPI还允许开发者将原本仅能NVIDIA CUDA环境下运行的代码，通过其迁移工具（SYCLomatic）快速转换到 Intel硬件上，为Arc系列显卡运行主流大模型打下了坚实的软件基础。 凭借深耕多年的CUDA护城河，NVIDIA在AI领域一度拥有"定价权"，这也让这家公司的GPU及相关产品的售价逐 渐脱离普通的消费者。 去年，Intel发布了基于第二代Xe2架构（Battlemage）的专业级显卡—Intel Arc Pro B60。随后，以Maxsun（铭 瑄）、SPARKLE（撼与）、GUNNIR（蓝戟）为代表的核心伙伴正式将其推向全球市场，直指高性能AI推理领 域。 Intel Arc Pro B60与此前发布的消费级Intel Arc B580一样 ...

Investment Rating - The investment rating for the semiconductor and semiconductor production equipment industry is "Positive" and maintained [14]. Core Insights - The silicon carbide (SiC) industry is undergoing a dual transition of new and old driving forces, along with a reshaping of the supply landscape. Demand is shifting from traditional applications like electric vehicles and photovoltaics to AI chip cooling, driven by a surge in computing power needs. This new demand is expected to grow at a higher rate and with long-term certainty, creating a dual driving force alongside a stable fundamental base. On the supply side, domestic companies are leading breakthroughs in 12-inch substrate R&D and pilot production, while overseas leader Wolfspeed is entering bankruptcy restructuring due to ongoing massive losses, accelerating the global supply chain's shift towards China. Domestic substrate companies are poised to capture the dual dividends of "computing power β + domestic α," propelling SiC from a material supplier to a core enabler of computing infrastructure, initiating a new growth cycle characterized by simultaneous increases in volume and price [5][13]. Summary by Sections AI Demand and Constraints - The explosive growth in computing power is facing three rigid constraints: economic, technical, and performance-related. The rising costs associated with process upgrades and design investments are deteriorating the input-output ratio. Technically, transistor miniaturization is approaching atomic scales, leading to quantum tunneling and leakage effects, which slow down single-thread performance growth. Performance-wise, while multi-core stacking increases total computing power, it results in GPU power consumption exceeding 400W, with future overall power consumption potentially surpassing 1kW, creating a "power wall" that restricts frequency enhancement and long-term stability [11][26]. Silicon Carbide as a Cooling Material - Silicon carbide has been validated in high-reliability scenarios such as electric vehicles and photovoltaic inverters over the past decade. Its material properties enable efficient cooling for computing power: a thermal conductivity of 4.9 W/cm·K (about three times that of silicon), low thermal expansion coefficient, and high Young's modulus. Laser-assisted through-silicon vias can precisely construct high aspect ratio 3D thermal channels, significantly optimizing heat flow paths. Stress tests confirm its superiority over silicon-based solutions in controlling radial stress and axial strain [12][13]. Market Growth and Supply Restructuring - The SiC industry is at a historic turning point with "demand expansion + supply restructuring." The demand side sees AI chip cooling creating a new market, with TSMC's CoWoS capacity expected to reach 1 million pieces per month by 2026, potentially generating over $1 billion if 30% adopts SiC solutions. Coupled with steady growth in the renewable energy sector, the industry is entering a high-growth phase driven by dual forces. On the supply side, leading domestic companies are accelerating the realization of their capacity plans, while Wolfspeed's bankruptcy is shifting global supply chain dominance towards China. In this context, leading companies with technological barriers and deep customer ties are set to fully capture the dual dividends of "computing power β + domestic α," elevating SiC from a material supplier to a core enabler of computing infrastructure [13][14].
