ARM LTD.

Company Overview

ARM Holdings Plc. is a British multinational semiconductor and software design company owned by SoftBank Group. Headquartered in Cambridge, U.K., its primary business is in ARM processors (CPUs) design. The company also designs software development tools under the DS-5, RealView, and Keil brands, systems and platforms, system-on-a-chip (SoC) infrastructure, and software. The ARM business model involves designing and licensing rather than manufacturing and selling semiconductor chips. It licenses IP to a network of partners, including the world’s leading semiconductor and systems companies. These partners use ARM IP designs to create and manufacture system-on-chip designs, paying ARM a licensing fee for the original IP and a royalty on every chip or wafer produced. The company also provides various tools and physical and systems IPs to enable optimized system-on-chip designs. ARM offers the proprietary TrustZone trusted environment technology to secure encryption keys used in chips for IoT-embedded devices, providing them inside Cortex-M chips and processors.
