Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company (TSMC) has introduced its cutting-edge 1.6nm semiconductor process, dubbed the “A16,” promising significant improvements in transistor density. Set for production in 2026, A16-based chipsets aim to offer a 10% speed boost with equal power efficiency to 2nm chips. This advancement aligns with Apple’s history of early adoption, likely extending to future iPhone models. With TSMC ramping up production capacity, Apple is expected to incorporate 2nm chips into its 2025 iPhones, leveraging enhanced processing performance and power efficiency.
