According to a new report from South Korean The Elec, Apple has ordered TSMC for the production of M5 processors. However, new chipsets 2 nm like M4 chips instead 3nm will be produced through the process. Apple’s decision is based on the 2nm production process. high cost It is stated that he gave it because of. Therefore, M5 processors are better than M4 It will not offer major gains in terms of performance.
However, with the use of new technologies in the production of chips, some efficiency gains will be. TSMC’s involvement in the production of new processors Integrated Chip technology or SoIC (System-On-Integrated-Chip) It is stated that it will be used. This 3D chip stacking method, the thermal management of the chips is improved, compared to traditional 2D designs. thermal runaway can be reduced is reported.
The new processors allegedly entered a small-scale test production phase in July. It is reported that if there are no technical problems, we will move on to the next stage. processors, Entering mass production in the second half of 2025 is planned. This means the company will skip the iPad Pro upgrade in the spring and by late next year or 2026 It means you can hide it.
MacBook Pro The models will come with the M5 processor first devices It is expected to happen. M5 MacBook Air models are planned to be released in spring 2026. There is also a possibility that M5 iPad Pros will be released together with M5 MacBook Pros.
