Samsung refused to produce A8 processor for Apple

All the signs are that the saga with A8 processor vendors for the next generation of mobile devices Apple, solve itself . 

According to recent data , TSMC can take over the entire volume of production systems on a chip , and Samsung , in turn, generally falls overboard .

According to Taiwanese publication TechNews, Samsung denied Apple's production A8 processors . The basis for this decision were the extremely low rates of production capacity in the creation of the Korean company's chips on 20 nm process technology . At the same time, TSMC sees an ideal option for Cupertino and will be able to fully meet all orders Apple.

This processor A9 can be produced and Samsung, but this is already 2015. A9 system on a chip will be manufactured on 14 nm process technology , and Samsung will receive approximately 40 % of the total order Apple. According to recent data , production systems on a chip can begin A9 based TSMS 16 nm process , and then be handed over to the Samsung reduction process to 14 nm .

In the near future we hardly know how reliable the information was Taiwanese edition for the simple reason that the first devices based on the A8 will be new models of iPhone and iPad, which are unlikely to see the light in the first half .
