Last year, Softbank acquired ARM at a premium of 32.2 billion US dollars and 43%. This transaction involving the global hegemony in the chip design field has been kept secret from beginning to end. Therefore, as soon as it was announced, it was like a deep-water bomb, which triggered a huge earthquake in the global chip industry.
Behind the acquisition, in fact, Sun Zheng is the leader in the acquisition. He has great personal enthusiasm and original dreams for the Internet of Things.
As the dominant player in the global smartphone chip architecture market, ARM continues to develop semiconductor intellectual property (IP), and then licenses IP to Apple, Qualcomm and MediaTek partners, and partners to manufacture chips. According to public data, ARM-based application processors are already used in more than 85% of smart mobile devices (including smartphones, tablets and laptops), and 50% of smartphones use ARMv8 architecture, called "mobile phone heart." "It is no exaggeration."
Independence in the chip industry constitutes a major advantage of ARM.
In 2010, Apple had intended to acquire ARM but was rejected. At the time, ARM CEO Warren East said that ARM "is more valuable as an independent company." Therefore, many people in the industry expressed doubts about the sale of ARM to Softbank.
On the other hand, the competitive situation facing ARM is also quite serious.
At present, ARM has an absolute advantage in the mobile Internet era, but vendors such as Qualcomm also have very strong strength. In addition, for future applications such as the Internet of Things market and artificial intelligence, ARM has not yet taken the lead in the market in terms of technology that is more suitable for machine learning and visual computing. It faces established vendors such as Intel and NVIDIA and many start-ups. The challenge of the enterprise. This also constitutes the reason why ARM repeatedly emphasizes independence, in order to "unify all forces that can be united."
So, how will ARM pull the global IoT market?Summarized three points:
First, ARM has released a series of products for the Internet of Things, including the Cortex-R52 processor based on the new ARMv8-R architecture, which will make it easier for business partners in the ecosystem to lay out and produce products;
Second, ARM has expanded the ARM mbed IoT device platform and added mbed Cloud to provide multiple functions including security use and security upgrade to help users manage IoT terminal devices.
Third, ARM is also considering acquisition opportunities for new technologies in the Internet of Things.
At the same time, ARM will not be a chip or platform, even if it starts to do software, it is also a software that is more practical for engineers. It is not difficult to find that the next air outlet is in the Internet of Things. This time ARM and ST will take you to the Internet of Things. Why not use your creative idea to implement your own smart product?
