TechPowerUp shot some photos of the first Ice Lake chips from Intel. The site took some shots of a system with the 10th Gen Core "Ice Lake-Y" processor, which is a multi-chip-module (MCM) for ultra low-power systems like laptops and 2-in-1 devices. The Ice Lake-Y processors have a TDP of 8W to 15W, they feature four "Sunny Cove" processor cores and the Gen11 GT2 integrated graphics.

The larger dies of the two of course is the 10 nm "Ice Lake" SoC with 4 "Sunny Cove" CPU cores, and a Gen11 GT2 iGPU. The smaller die is the PCH (platform controller hub), or chipset. The RVP (reference validation platform) is a motherboard that lets you test every possible connectivity option of the platform, by manually switching around PCIe lanes, SATA links, GPIO, LVDS, and TMDS lanes via jumpers.

Next there's a photo that shows a wafer with 4-core Ice Lake cores:
