-==History==
-P. A. Semi concentrated on making powerful and power-efficient [[Power ISA]] processors called [[PWRficient]], based on the '''PA6T''' processor core.<ref>{{Cite web |title=P.A. Semi Successfully Develops the Most Power-Efficient High-Performance Processor Ever Designed |url=http://vita.mil-embedded.com/news/p-processor-ever-designed/ |access-date=2022-07-26 |website=VITA Technologies |language=en}}</ref> The PA6T was the first Power ISA core to be designed from scratch outside the [[AIM alliance]] (i.e. not by [[Apple Inc.|Apple]], [[IBM]], or [[Motorola]]/[[Freescale]]) in ten years. [[Texas Instruments]] was one of the investors in P.A. Semi and it was suggested that their fabrication plants would be used to manufacture the PWRficient processors.<ref>{{cite web

+'''Branding'''
-There were rumors that P. A. Semi had a relationship with [[Apple Inc.|Apple]] that suggested Apple would be the premier user of the PWRficient processors. That relationship supposedly ended with the [[Mac transition to Intel processors]] when Apple switched from the PowerPC to [[Intel]]'s [[Intel Core|Core]] processors for their entire line of computers.<ref>{{cite web|last=Vance|first=Ashlee|date=2006-05-19|title=Apple shunned superstar chip start-up for Intel|url=http://www.theregister.com/2006/05/19/pasemi_apple/|access-date=2006-05-19|website=[[The Register]]}}</ref>

-== Acquisition by Apple ==
-On 23 April 2008, Apple announced that they had acquired P. A. Semi.<ref>{{Cite web |title=Apple buys chip designer PA Semi for $278 million |url=https://appleinsider.com/articles/08/04/23/apple_buys_chip_designer_pa_semi_for_278_million |access-date=2022-07-26 |website=AppleInsider |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Apple Buys Chip Designer |url=https://www.forbes.com/2008/04/23/apple-buys-pasemi-tech-ebiz-cz_eb_0422apple.html |access-date=2022-07-26 |website=Forbes |language=en}}</ref> While Apple's previous relationship with P. A. Semi (see above) would indicate that Apple could use their processors, P. A. Semi manufactures only Power ISA processors, which Apple did not use at the time.
-On 11 June 2008, during the annual Worldwide Developer's Conference, Apple CEO [[Steve Jobs]] said that the acquisition was meant to add the talent of P. A. Semi's engineers to Apple's workforce and help them build custom chips for the [[iPod]], [[iPhone]], and other future mobile devices<ref>{{cite news
