Apple self-developed 5G baseband exposure: iPhone signal with 3nm technology is expected to improve

Apple's mobile phone has a well-known problem, that is, it often has some problems with poor signal. So Apple said that it plans to develop its own 5G baseband long ago. Recently, Xiaobian received further news about Apple's self-developed 5G baseband, saying that Apple's baseband will use 3nm technology to greatly improve the signal!

According to the latest news from the supply chain,Apple's self-developed 5G baseband chip R&D code is Ibiza, which will use the TSMC 3nm process, and the supporting RF IC will use the TSMC 7nm process

According to the news,Apple's above 5G baseband is expected to be introduced into the iPhone 16 series mobile phones launched in 2024, while TSMC will start trial production for Apple as soon as the second half of this year, and gradually increase the production volume in the first half of next year.

Cristiano Amon, CEO of Qualcomm, had previously suggested that Apple might carry its own 5G baseband chip in the iPhone 16 series.

The supply chain personage also said that Apple has also launched the research and development plan for the iPhone SE4, which can be seen as a smaller version of the iPhone 14, and will be equipped with a 6.1 inch OLED screen and a self-developed 5G baseband.

The baseband of mobile phones has always been very difficult to do, because to adjust its performance with the global operators, the previous NV withdrew from the industry, and then Apple used the self-developed baseband, and the signal performance of the iPhone also hopes to improve.

If the 5G baseband developed by Apple really meets the expectations, the signal problem of Apple's mobile phone will not occur again, that is to say, Apple's mobile phone will once again become the best mobile phone in the whole network, without any use problems.
