Technical sheet of the A17 Bionic chip of the iPhone 15 Pro

The A17 Bionic chip which will probably power the iPhone 15 Pro and iPhone 15 Pro Max should continue to be equipped with only six gigabytes of RAM, as with the four iPhone 14 models. 'says a specialized Twitter account, accustomed to this kind of predictions. The source has already been right in the past.

With this, the maximum clock rate of the motherboard would reach up to 3.7 GHz, for six CPU cores and six graphics card cores.

Apple A17 – t8130 – Coll

6 CPU Cores + 6 GPU Cores
3.70 GHz
6GB LPDDR5 DRAM – Micron/Samsung
TSMC 3nm Process

LPDDR = Low Power Double Data Rate SDRAM

The A17 is used by both the D83 and D84, also likely planned for D47 and D48 (16 series), as the D9x will use t8140 (A18).

High-end subcontractors

Still according to the same indices, it isSamsungand Micron which would beloadedto provide RAM memory sticks with the technologyLPDDR5DRAM on the menu. The Korean having also been selected for the design of certain iPhone 15 screens, it seems, and yet, he himself offers twelve gigabytes of RAM with his Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5…

With this, it is obviously the TSMC founder who would melt the chips, thanks to a fine engraving process of only three nanometers. However, the lower this figure, the lower the energy consumption, and tests have shown that the A16 Bionic chip in the iPhone 14 Pro and iPhone 14 Pro Max is engraved with a precision of four nanometers. .

It should also be noted that the A17 Bionic chip would also be chosen for the iPhone 16 and iPhone 16 Plus, in the same way that the A16 Bionic chip is already fitted to the iPhone 15 and iPhone 15 Plus. Information which of course remains to be considered with a grain of salt, given that Apple has not confirmed the file.

A presentation in September?

The keynote which should allow us to discover the iPhone 15, the iPhone 15 Plus, the iPhone 15 Pro as well as the iPhone 15 Pro Max is apparently scheduled for September 12. But here again, Cupertino has not yet confirmed thedateofficially.

During the event, we could also discover new Macs, an Apple Watch Series 9 and the exact release date of iOS 17 and macOS Sonoma in final version.
