An Introduction to Arm Architecture
At its core, Arm architecture is a family of specifications for computer processors based on a Reduced Instruction Set Computer (RISC) design. Unlike companies that design and manufacture their own chips, Arm Holdings creates and licenses its processor architecture as intellectual property (IP). This means other companies, from tech giants to specialized startups, can purchase a license to use Arm's designs to build their own processors, often customizing them for specific needs. This unique business model is a key reason for Arm's incredible reach.
