The latest report shows that Apple is preparing to use 2nm technology to build chips in its Mac, although they will not be available in recent years. With the continuous progress of the times, the advanced semiconductor technology is also gradually developing forward. Although Apple missed the opportunity to use the 3nm process this year, the next 3nm and 2nm processes will achieve a stable transition. IT Home learned that Apple has its own SoC design team to design CPUs for iPhones, Macs and iPads, which are manufactured by TSMC. However, progress did not always go according to plan. Apple processors such as M1 and A15 are made with 5nm technology. The company hopes to transition to 3nm technology this year, but the weather is not satisfactory. TSMC failed to solve the problem of mass production in the second half of this year, even though it is too late to achieve mass production immediately. Therefore, the new M2 and A16 still use 5nm technology enhanced version. It is expected that the subsequent M3 will be Apple's first product with 3nm technology. According to the Electronic Times, Apple has already begun to actively prepare 2nm chips, and hopes to strengthen cooperation with TSMC to apply new nodes for its internally developed processors. The plan is to enter mass production in 2025. Of course, even if Apple's chips fail to achieve the Great Leap Forward, they will not fall behind. According to Apple, the performance of A16 in the iPhone 14 Pro is 33% better than that of the iPhone 11 Pro Max, and 40% better than that of the Samsung Galaxy S22 Ultra. At the same time, the battery life is longer, and the chip with 2nm technology in the future is also worth looking forward to. (Liu Xinshe)
