After powering Apple Macs for nearly three decades, Apple is giving up on Intel.
Apparently, the new chip that is being built using ARM architecture would work alongside the Intel processors.
Known internally as T310, the chip is being designed to handle low-power mode functionality.
Apple new chip is being designed to carry more of the system load for certain tasks.
While the current configuration uses very little power but Apples chip will apparently conserve even more battery.
By developing its own chip, Apple would get the flexibility to integrate hardware and software functions.
However, Apple is said to have no intention of abandoning Intel chips in its laptop and desktop computers.
