Comment on Apple Silicon M1 Die-Shotsparent

Comments

It may be interesting to look at a more completely labeled die image (eg. a recent AMD laptop chip [1]).

I/O controllers, various PHYs, the display pipeline and the media engine account for a significant fraction of chip.

We also know the M1 has an integrated SSD controller, ISP and Thunderbolt which probably take a good chunk of room too.

SSD controller and even Thunderbolt. That's the most integrated SoC I've heard of.
