Overview
Fabricated on TSMCs N5 EUV process, the M1 integrates 16 billion transistors. Featuring four ‘BIG’ high-performance cores called "Firestorm" and four ‘little’ efficiency cores called "Icestorm".
Integrated Graphics
The M1 uses an eight-core Apple-designed graphics processor, though some M1s are sold with one core disabled.
Neural Engine and ISP
The M1 features a 16-core neural engine that Apple claims delivers 11 trillion operations per second, identical in performance to the A14. It also incorporates an Apple image signal processor.
