Apple’s A20 Pro chip has dropped traditional package-on-package (PoP) packaging in favor of Wafer-Level Multi-Chip Module (WMCM), with memory and processor dies laid out side by side to potentially improve packaging yield and thermal performance, according to a teardown analysis by TechInsights. The findings come as Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 6 and Apple’s A20 Pro draw comparisons around 2-nanometer chip manufacturing and memory packaging.
