The deal will see ARM provide a comprehensive physical IP platform for advanced process technology that supports a wide range of consumer applications targeting the smartphone, tablet, wireless and digital home markets.

"Strengthening our collaboration with ARM enables optimized implementation of cost- and power-sensitive SoCs for our customers," explained Dr. Tianshen Tang, senior vice president of SMIC’s Design Service Center.
 
The ARM Artisan physical IP platform for SMIC’s 28 nm poly SiON (PS) process provides the building blocks to implement a wide range of performance and area optimized, low-power SoCs designs. ARM’s silicon-proven IP platform offers a set of memory compilers, standard cells and logic, and general-purpose interface products that meet performance and power requirements for mobile communications and computing.

ARM’s standard cell libraries and memory compilers incorporate multi-channel and mixed Vtfeatures to enable a wide performance and power spectrum taking advantage of the performance and power range of SMIC’s poly SiON process. The features ensure that power budgets for performance-critical SoC designs can be met.
