We call it hardening the IP, taking the IP from just digital files and good ideas and translating that into the design for a chip. That's a fairly cumbersome process, and I think Arm is now taking a lot of steps to make that process easier, accelerat

And when you consider those steps to designing chips and partnering with other technology companies that participate in other parts of the ecosystem, Who else are you bringing together for this project then ultimately spec yourself into something whi

Synopsys and Cadence are tool players that will help you take your top level designs and help them make them manufacturable. And that kind of spurred an industry that was capable of doing different things. And that has been kind of the bedrock of the

the original Palo Alto Semiconductor was actually kind of a celebrity in the chip, design industry called Dan Dauberfel. I hope I'm pronouncing that right. But he, he had been a lead chip designer, way back in the seventies and eighties for DEC, and

computers, as we know, the desktop computers, laptops, and and servers use x 86 x 86 architecture from Intel. And, there were efforts made kind of starting, or or or at least most popularized by ARM, ARM, to do a different chip architecture that with

The Annus Mirabelis for the semiconductor industry. And useless. Right? It's in 1987. It's hamstrung. It's very few instructions. PCs are always plugged in. So what do we need a low power chip for? This thing's pathetic. Real men have fabs, and real

today, a huge amount of volume of TSMC's manufacturing is making chips for iPhones, which since the outset has used ARM. Chips that are using all mobile devices, iPhones and Android, all of which are ARM, and lots of servers that are ARM. Presumably,

systems with the highest amount of functionality with the fewest number of chips. Because every chip that you put in there added a whole lot of cost to the bill of materials. Yep. And not just on the raw costs, but on the assembly time. Soldering tak

And there's pockets of it elsewhere. The EDA guys have a a ton of IP as well. And, of course, as you make these chips, you need to emulate them to see if they actually work, hopefully, before you put them in the fab because that's really expensive. S
