Kubukeka sengathi i-Apple iyaqhubeka nokufuna ukwenza ngcono i-M1 ye-Mac ngazo zonke izindlela futhi ophethe ukukhiqiza la maprosesa amasha we-Apple kuzoba yi-TSMC cishe kuphela. Lezi zinqubo ezintsha zizokhiqizwa nge-4nm njengoba kuchaziwe ku DigiTimes.
Ukubekwa kwalaba bacubunguli bama-Macs kuhambisana namaprosesa azofika nezinhlobo ezintsha ze-iPhone, ezizophinde zivele zivela kuTSMC. Empeleni, ama-Apple chips afuna thuthukisa ukusebenza kahle futhi ungeze amandla amaningi ngaphezu kokunciphisa usayizi.
Kubonakala kucacile lapho ukuthi i-TSMC izoba neningi lekhekhe ekwenziweni kwalesi sakhi esibalulekile kuma-Macs wesikhathi esizayo. Ucwaningo nentuthuko luyaqhubeka nokufuna ukukhiqiza ngobuningi ifayili le- Ama-3nm nama-2nm chips, kepha lokhu okwamanje kuqhubekile futhi okwamanje bahlala ku-4nm.
I-Apple ayifuni izinkinga futhi isivele yenze ukubhuka kwengxenye yalo mkhiqizo kumaqembu ayo. Kungenzeka ukuthi ama-Macs amasha alo nyaka athuthuke ngaphezu kwe-M1 yamanje, lokhu kusobala, ngakho-ke ukubheka ngale kwalesi sizukulwane esizayo kuyinto i-Apple eqinisekile ukuthi bayayenza futhi I-TSMC izoba yingxenye yalezi zinhlelo.
Manje sesinama-13-intshi iMacBook Air, iMac mini, neMacBook Pros nge-M1 yize kulindeleke ukuthi kulo nyaka wonke amanye ama-computer e-Apple azokhipha igxathu lokugcina ngaphandle kweMac Pro.Le Mac Pro ingangena ezinhlelweni ze-Apple zesikhathi esizayo zokufaka ama-processor ayo, amanye amaqembu akhona.
