This gossip was kicked off by Piper Jaffray who said that Intel might be cooking up something for Apple. Reports reveal that Intel might be fabricating new chipsets for new iPad models. This news comes after Intel disclosed that it will be making the most significant announcement for the industry this year. This was disclosed in a press release done last Wednesday. Experts say that this will include the 22-nanometer fabrication method as well as new chipsets for iOS products. What is 22nm technology? Transistors are for the most part spaced out about 40 nanometers away from one another. Placing them closer to distance of about 22nm will result in more energy efficient chips. Intel has this technology in place already.
Apple is looking for options to get away from utilizing Samsung to fabricate the A4 and A5 chips since Apple is suing Samsung for making a recent rip-off of their newly released tablet. Where will Samsung get help from? Intel might come into the scene since this is ahead from ARM and they are already making chips for Apple. It is now a question of why shouldn't Intel take the job and create the chips. Well there are some very valid reasons. For the most part, the company has not actually made a chip with enough power as well as battery life. These are the main strengths of Apple devices. It won't be long before we find out the truth about this and see what Apple does.
