Evolution of Apple's “A” Series Processors

Abstract

Apple's known to be a company which embraces in-house technology. While other companies outsource, Apple likes to keep things in-house whenever potential and therefore the chips found in iOS devices are no exception whereas other smartphones makers rely on Qualcomm, Mediatek and Intel for chipsets. Apple houses its own team of engineers to work on designs exclusive to their devices and it all began in 2008 when Apple purchased a small semiconductor company called P. A. Semi (i.e. Palo Alto Semiconductor). With a continuous thrive to push the human race forward, Apple‟s been exploiting the smartphones industry to the very limits possible. The first "Systems on Chip" (SoC) was used in the first iPhone in 2007 it was called the APL0098. A12X, which is the latest chipset by Apple, stands out to be the most advanced processor ever found on a Smartphone. The latest generation of Apple processors are manufactured by TSMC
