Already we know the fact that Apple and TSMC have a long partnership as Apple is one of the biggest customers to the Taiwanese Silicon giant. Apple will be shifting to ARM chips for its wide range of Macs and for it, the company requires a huge amount of silicon chips.
So it’s obvious destination is TSMC and a report from Digitimes states that by the first half of 2021 Apple will be contracting a small portion of TSMC’s capacity.
This is no surprise for the fact that Apple is one of the oldest customers of TSMC and it’s a shift to its own silicons require much more chips than ever before.
Although starting small, Apple will surely be relying more on TSMC. Hopefully, as rumours suggest its first products with Apple Silicon will be in the form of MacBook Air and 13-inch MacBook Pro.
This transition will take the time of 2 years to get all of its products compatible with ARM chips. However, the world is looking forward to Apple’s bold decision and how its chips actually perform in the coming days.
On the other hand, the Digitimes report also states that Apple will also be contracting ASMedia for the USB controllers in Macs with ARM silicon.
