ARM establishes CPU Design Centre in Taiwan
The company's first in Asia, ARM has announced the establishment of a CPU Design Centre in the Hsinchu Science Park, Hsinchu, Taiwan. The centre will focus on the design, verification and delivery of ARM Cortex-M processors targeted at the Internet of Things (IoT), wearables and embedded applications markets.
Simon Segars, Chief Executive Officer, ARM, comments: “Close proximity to key semiconductor and ecosystem partners and high-calibre local engineering talent makes Taiwan an ideal location for us to expand our CPU design activities. The new design centre will have a particular focus on the development of ARM Cortex-M processors which are the market-leading design choice for IoT products. Establishing a new, world-class CPU design team in Taiwan will allow us to work even more closely with key regional partners seeking to accelerate this market.”
The news was welcomed by Taiwan’s Ministry of Science and Technology (MOST) and Ministry of Economic Affairs (MOEA), San-Cheng Chang, who commented: “Taiwan’s semiconductor industry is playing a leading and strategic role in the global market. The Ministry has been working closely with Taiwan’s technology industry to foster incubation of advanced technologies and nurture growth of the talent pool and we are pleased to witness ARM establishing its first CPU design centre in Taiwan, endorsing Taiwan’s strong talent and well-established industry chain.”
The centre is forecast to open at the end of 2014 and will create highly skilled microprocessor design opportunities for the technical community in the region.
