No the Apple Silicon chips use the arm _instruction set_ but they do not use their core design. Apple designs their core in house, much like Qualcomm does with snapdragon. Both of these companies have an architectural license which allows them to do this.
- tibbydudeza 6y agoQualcomm no longer makes their own cores - they just use ARM reference IP designs since the Kryo. That will probably change with their Nuvia acquisition.
