Arm cancels Qualcomm’s architecture license, endangering its chip business
Dispute goes back to Qualcomm’s acquisition of Nuvia in 2021.
Any company that makes Arm chips must license technology from Arm Holdings plc, the British company that develops the instruction set. Companies can license the instruction set and create their own CPU designs or license one of Arm’s ready-made Cortex CPU core designs to incorporate into their own chips.
