Even though the M4 chip has just arrived, Apple is still working on it and the M5 chip is already on the horizon.
It’s true that the M4 chip has just been launched in the new iPad Pro, and we haven’t seen it in any other device from the company yet. It’s also true that the M4 chip improves the M3 much more than we thought, but that doesn’t mean that Apple isn’t continuing to work on it. The M5 chip is already on the horizon and we begin to learn more about him.
According to reports Daily Economic Journal
The M5 chip will arrive with exciting new features
Apple will use technology new more advanced TSMC called SoIC for its M5 chipsMeaning of SoIC Integrated System on Chipmore advanced than the classic SoC, System on chipwhich is used so far. It seems that this new system uses thermoplastic carbon fiber and the first manufacturing tests are already underway.
TSMC’s SoIC technology was introduced in 2018 and allows chips to be stacked in three dimensions, improving electrical performance and thermal management compared to traditional designs, which are two-dimensional. This will make the chip more efficient and run cooler, two major problems with current chips.
Apple’s strategy with this M5 chip is twofold. On the one hand, Improve the power and efficiency of your Mac and iPadwhich could use this new chip. And, on the other, Improve the performance of your data centers and future cloud-dependent AI tools. It has been said that Apple’s servers are currently using the M2 Ultra chip and could be updated in the future to use the M4 chip, but it looks like the M5 chip will be a more interesting option.
Although initial testing of the M5 chip is already underway, the chip is not expected to be ready for production until end of 2025 or 2026. This makes us think that we will see new versions of the M4 chip late this year or early next year. We expect to see the new MacBook Pro, Mac Studio, and Mac Pro equipped with the M4 Pro, M4 Max and M4 Ultra chip
And What characterizes Apple in the development of its chips is ambition.. The company is an industry leader and offers chips that are unmatched in terms of performance and efficiency. They are several years ahead of the industry, but they continue to step on the accelerator. No one offers a chip with the power of an M3 Pro or an M3 Max, and Apple already has the M4 on the market and is working on the M5.
