Comment Comment by MCRed This is where Apple really adds value and why they have their own silicon design teams.Some of the blocks:-- M7 motion chip-- Image processing chip to support camera-- (I suspect) audio processing chip to do compression and feature extraction for SIRI-- (suspect) video codec (though this may be done by GPU)-- Secure Enclave -- CPU with secure data, random number generator, Apple Pay support, Fingerprint Sensor support-- (I suspect) memory management units and io co-processors and the like that are too mundane to get much public mention parent MCRed 12 years ago
