With the release of iMac Pro, Apple's strongest desktop computer ever, the Intel processor with up to 18 cores has amazing performance, and it will also take over the banner of "trash can" Mac Pro, which has been in service for many years. In addition, Apple's customized T2 chip, which has always been mysterious, has finally surfaced, and Apple's official website has introduced its functions in detail. Apple is also going farther and farther in the way of developing its own processor. It is reported that Apple will use its own display chip after the breakthrough.

Detailed explanation of Apple T2 chip on Apple official website:

This Apple T2 chip is the second generation customized Mac chip launched by Apple. By redesigning and integrating several controllers in other Mac systems, such as system management controller, image signal processor, audio controller and solid state disk controller, Apple T2 chip has brought many new functions to Mac.

For example, T2 image signal processor can cooperate with FaceTime HD camera to further improve tone mapping and exposure control, and can also automatically expose and adjust white balance based on face recognition technology. In addition, the secure partition coprocessor has laid a solid foundation for the new encrypted storage and secure boot function. The T2 chip can make the iMac Pro more secure.

It also uses special AES hardware to encrypt the data stored on the SSD, which will not affect the performance of the SSD, but also enable Intel Xeon processors to concentrate on processing computing tasks. In addition, the safe boot function ensures that the underlying software will not be tampered with, and only operating system software trusted by Apple can be started at boot time.
