There's an interesting anomaly in the modern tech world: There's a company that doesn't make anything, yet it dominates the chip world. Its technology lives in your phone, in your TV, in your car, even in your laptop, and in the data centers that power it all.
It's Arm, the chip design company that has been through a lot over the past few years. ARM mainly designs the instruction set for modern chips, and customers include Qualcomm, Apple and Samsung, whose chips are based on the Arm architecture.
In terms of business model, Arm licenses the instruction set to these companies and collects royalties from these companies. Armed with Arm's architecture, these companies can produce a variety of custom chips based on their needs. Arm's model has been a huge success.
According to data, in February this year, after NVIDIA announced that it would abandon the acquisition of Arm, the Arm board announced the appointment of Rene Haas as the new CEO. He has 35 years of experience in the semiconductor industry and has worked in Arm for nearly 9 years.
Rene Haas stressed that Arm will try to remain neutral. As we all know, Arm is known as the "Switzerland of the electronics industry" (Switzerland maintains a neutral policy), dabbling in various sub-ecosystems in the ecosystem. If you start at the bottom of the semiconductor chain, you get GF, Samsung, TSMC, Intel, all the people who make chips, and you have to work with all of them.
Arm doesn't provide many architecture licenses, because it's very difficult to design self-developed chips based on architecture, and Arm has built very good CPU cores, building a different or better CPU while still complying with Arm standards is very difficult.
According to Rene Haas, there is more that Arm can do, and may need to do more in the future, because these products are really complex to build. For example, Apple's M-series processors are indeed licensed based on the Arm instruction set architecture.
