Access to latest ARM® Intellectual Property (IP) provides HiSilicon with an innovative multicore technology platform to address global market opportunities

Access to the latest , along with a prior license for ARM Cortex-A9, will provide HiSilicon with an innovative multicore technology platform. This will allow it to address global market opportunities with highly competitive solutions, encompassing both ASSP and ASIC products.

For the last 20 years HiSilicon has focused on providing highly competitive, innovative ASICs to customers around the world. To achieve this required an innovative and scalable platform that differentiated HiSilicon, commented Teresa He, Vice President, HiSilicon. Partnering with ARM over the years allowed us to develop such a platform and this has helped to position HiSilicon as a global provider of solutions for wireless and networking infrastructure, and digital media. This latest agreement will provide us with the latest ARM IP to address the needs of our customers.

As an ARM Partner, HiSilicon also benefits from membership of the ARM Connected Community®, a global network of over 850 companies with access to a wide variety of resources and aligned to provide optimized solutions to global customers based on the ARM architecture.

Over the last 5 years ARM has consistently increased its investment in China to enable and support innovation for important partners, such as HiSilicon, said Allen Wu, President, ARM China. We have been partnering with HiSilicon and Huawei for many years to develop a platform based on ARM technology. The relationship is now enabling broad innovation using ARM IP in many applications, such as consumer multimedia, set top boxes and networking infrastructure. The success of HiSilicon’s industry-first eight core ARM Cortex-A9 network SoC is a great example of ARM Partner innovation.
