ARM unveils the ARM IP portfolio programme

News
Socle Technology Corp, a provider of SoC design, is first member of ARM's IP portfolio programme which enables fabless design houses to exploit the widest range of ARM technology as part of a full turnkey service.
ARM announced the ARM IP portfolio programme (AIPPP), an innovative business and engagement model for companies offering custom ASIC design services. The initiative provides access to a comprehensive range of ARM IP and an opportunity for closer co-operation on new business opportunities. ARM also announced that Socle Technology Corporation, a system on chip (SoC) design service and solution provider in Taiwan, is the first member of the new programme and will offer the service worldwide.

Under the terms of the AIPPP, selected companies can license a package of ARM technology (including processor, graphics, fabric & physical IP), which can be applied according to customer requirements. Immediate access accelerates time to market and provides the flexibility to adapt as requirements change from initial design through to manufacture. Compatibility between fully optimised ARM technologies also reduces risk and increases the likelihood of creating a competitive and compelling final solution.

"At Socle, we are committed to working closely together with other industry leaders to deliver high quality, low power, energy efficient solutions to our customer base," said David Lyou, president and CEO, Socle Technology Corporation. "Socle's SoC design platforms, SoC-ImP and uPlatform, with rapid access to ARM technology and Chartered's advanced foundry process will further enable us to provide higher performance, more reliable and predictable design and development solutions to our OEM customers, and improve faster time to market for their digital devices."

Chartered, a semiconductor foundry, has invested in Socle as the major shareholder, with an eye to closer design collaboration and to provide a one stop shop ASIC solution in advanced process nodes.

"Socle Technology is well known as a leading provider of ARM technology based embedded platform design solutions and our partnership with them is the first in our new, innovative business model which sees ARM engage in a strategic partnership with this important community," said Philip Lu, president, ARM Taiwan. " AIPPP will enable ARM, in collaboration with its partners, to meet the requirements of the rapidly changing and fragmented supply chain with the widest possible application of optimised ARM technology."

Socle is a member of the ARM Approved Design Centre programme, a world wide partnership of service companies certified to deliver expert design services around ARM IP. The ARM Approved Design Centre programme is part of the ARM Connected Community.
