Производить процессоры Baikal в России оказалось невозможно

Head of Baikal Electronics explained why the project will not be launched without international cooperation

It is impossible to deploy the production of Baikal processors in Russia using only its own resources; international cooperation is necessary. This statement was made by Andrey Evdokimov, head of Baikal Electronics.

According to him, the country is actively developing its own production of semiconductors at 90 and 60 nanometers. Including work is underway towards the development of 28 nanometer technology.

But now it is impossible to produce any Baikal processors in Russia, so this is always international cooperation. Well, fortunately, if we are talking about 28 nanometers or even simpler nanometers - 60, 45, and so on, then there are many options for cooperation here.

Evdokimov clarified that it is not only about Taiwan, the international market has the opportunity to build processors in different places. He also added that the personnel issue plays a role; it is not possible to find people for some important positions for years.

This is a senior engineer, for example, physical design, and so on. These are unique people, these people can be counted on the fingers of two hands in the country, they are very difficult to find.

Meanwhile, Baikal Electronics has begun accepting orders for domestic Baikal-M and Baikal-L processors. By the end of 2025, the developer plans to supply customers within the country with several tens of thousands of chips, and by 2026 - more than 100 thousand.
