The M1 is similar to the A-series of chips found in the iPhone and iPad. The first of these chips was introduced in November of 2020, and the System on a Chip is called the M1. On Intel Machines, Apple built some custom silicon, called the T2 chip, that would be the interface between the Secure Enclave and the built-in Touch ID sensor.Īt their World Wide Developer Conference in June of 2020 Apple announced that they would be moving away from Intel chips to their own custom silicon. If it does not match, then it fails and you have to try again.
When you attempt to authenticate with Touch ID, the Touch ID sensor computes a hash of your finger and compares it with the fingers stored in the Secure Enclave and if there is a match, then the authentication request succeeds. Instead, it is a mathematical hash that cannot be directly accessed by the system and securely stored in a place called the Secure Enclave. Touch ID uses a fingerprint for this authentication, however, it is not an image of your fingerprint. One of these upgrades was brought over from the iPhone and iPad.
