TSMC has announced a breakthrough chip fabrication technology, with reduced node size, increased performance and better power management — all of which should ultimately lead to faster iPhones and Macs.
The new 1.6nm node process, dubbed A16, was announced at the company’s annual North America Technology Symposium.
With every new production process, TSMC reduces the node size allowing for more transistors on a processor. This ultimately allows for improved performance and reduced power consumption on newer chips.
