ARM Holdings plc emerged as a pre-eminent force in the semiconductor
revolution. When ARM pioneered the concept of openly-licensable IP for the
development of 32-bit RISC microprocessor-based SoCs in the early 1990s, it
changed the dynamics of the semiconductor industry forever. By licensing,
rather than manufacturing and selling its chip technology, the Company
established a new business model that has redefined the way microprocessors
are designed, produced and sold.
ARM licenses its IP to a network of Partners, which includes some of the
world’s leading semiconductor and system companies, including nineteen out
of the top-twenty semiconductor vendors worldwide. These Partners utilise
ARM’s low-cost, power-efficient core designs to create and manufacture
microprocessors, peripherals and SoC solutions.
