Surprise big discovery: CPU silicon chips actually engraved with cartoon patterns

Recently, some foreign DIY madman nothing else to do, some processors and large scale integrated circuit completely dismantled, and get down at the microscope unexpectedly, find a lot of fun things. As follows:

This is the sword pattern found in the PowerPC 750 processor, also known as Apple's G3 processor. G3 R & D code named Arthur (Arthur king), this sword is not the king of the city of the sword used in the Excalibur, right?

The monster pattern found in this SGI MIPS 10000 processor

CPU is a real monster! Here's a flamethrower monster living in the Analog Devices DSP chip!

5x86 was also welcomed by the poor Cyrix......

Where do these interesting designs come from? Let's get to know a little bit about the process of making large scale integrated circuits. In fact, circuit chip is through optical principle carved onto silicon wafers, and the original circuit drawing in a transmission base on these pictures is natural pre drawn in the masterslice above will be done on the chip, and the rendering of these pictures are technical personnel responsible for drawing the master chip company they, in the circuit drawing and dull as ditch water when their favorite pictures on the blank of the circuit, and micro computer chips in the world there is a even chip manufacturers do not know the secret of the world, a cartoon world, this software and Easter eggs in very similar.
