Arm Ltd

To stay ahead of the relentless pace of technology, NVIDIA and the Arm ecosystem have been expanding where they collaborate to help their partners meet the ever-evolving demands of compute, particularly in the digital infrastructure.

For more than two decades, Arm technology has been at the heart of cellular technology and mobile device computing. From base stations to handsets, Arm is ubiquitous from the network to end devices and will span all key areas of 5G, the fastest growing generation of wireless cellular.

Arm’s next-generation mobile solution is powering the new Samsung Exynos 2100 SoC, an early adopter of the new Arm Cortex-X1 CPU in a tri-cluster, octa-core configuration, and optimized for 5nm.

Arm has announced that Telechips, a leading global fabless semiconductor company specialising in automotive applications, has selected a leading-edge suite of Arm® IP for its next-generation automotive system-on-chip (SoC), the Dolphin5, which is designed for applications such as Advanced Driver-assistance Systems (ADAS) and Digital Cockpit including IVI Systems.

In 2019, Arm announced the launch of a technology research program called Morello. This is funded by the UK government’s Industrial Strategy Challenge Fund (ISCF) Digital Security by Design (DSbD) program, with one transformative goal: to radically update the security foundations of the digital computing infrastructure that underpins the entire economy.

With an ever-increasing range of devices adding artificial intelligence (AI) functionality, Arm has announced the latest member of its Ethos product line, the Arm Ethos-U65 microNPU (Neural Processing Unit).

NVIDIA and SoftBank Group Corp. (SBG) have announced a definitive agreement under which NVIDIA will acquire Arm Limited from SBG and the SoftBank Vision Fund (together, SoftBank) in a transaction valued at $40 billion. The transaction is expected to be immediately accretive to NVIDIA’s non-GAAP gross margin and non-GAAP earnings per share.

More than 60 partners have signed up for Arm Flexible Access in its first year, with new Arm customers making up more than half of these first-year partners. Silicon design opportunities have been expanded and accelerated in areas such as IoT, ML and automotive, with 15% of programme partners already moving towards tape out.

Customer Premises Equipment (CPE) has been ripe for innovation for years.
