Earlier, it was reported that Apple plans to continue to use TSMC’s 5nm process technology in the A16.Today, Ming-Chi Kuo retweeted the news and released a roadmap for TSMC’s release time.
According to the roadmap, TSMC’s 4nm and 3nm process technology will not start mass production until 2023, so the new A16 processor can only use the original 5nm process technology.
At the same time, Ming-Chi Kuo revealed that,Compared with 5nm, TSMC’s 4nm process has no obvious improvement, so it is more reasonable for A16 to choose 5nm instead of waiting for 4nm.
However, although the A16 missed 4nm, it does not mean that it has no improvement over the A15.
Apple will be on the A16,For the first time, LPDDR5 memory is supported, and the CPU and GPU are enhanced at the same time, which brings a certain experience improvement.
It is worth mentioning that some users believe that Apple plans to “hold a big move” on the A17 and directly use the 3nm process technology, but there is no substantive evidence for this speculation.
