ARM Moves Into SOI
Posted date : Dec 6, 2006

ARM Holdings, the industry’s leading provider of semiconductor IP for processors, peripherals and SoC solutions, is strengthening its physical IP portfolio by adding SOI technology.

Buys Soisic:

“SOI technology is a leading candidate to address the power and performance scaling issues associated with traditional bulk CMOS processes as they migrate to ever-smaller geometries. The acquisition of Soisic adds a new capability to our physical IP portfolio, offering the potential for significantly better optimization of performance and power consumption for our Partners.”
— Mike Muller, CTO & Director, ARM

 

Partners with Soitec:

“We are extremely pleased to see ARM supporting the SOI ecosystem. We look forward to partnering with them to further develop the design infrastructure that will be critical to the high-performance, low-power consumption chips that SOI enables.”
— André-Jacques Auberton-Hervé, President and CEO, Soitec
