iPhone 18 Pro is only weeks away from launching, and a new report from Culpium indicates it could have limited availability due to a DRAM shortage holding up production.
DRAM shortage reportedly delaying iPhone 18 Pro production, Apple concerned about supply
Tim Culpan writes at Culpium:
This year’s iPhone will use Apple’s A20 Pro processor, the first chip to be manufactured on TSMC’s N2 node which started shipping in volume earlier this year. The A20 Pro then gets packaged alongside DRAM using TSMC’s new Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module (WMCM) process. […]
Production of the A20 Pro at N2 is progressing well with good volume and yields, I am told. But wafers are piling up waiting for DRAM before they can be packaged and sent on to the next step.
