Robin Saxby (2017): Introduced microprocessor IP licensing model which would be largely responsible for the success of the smartphone
- Making them easy to plug into new designs ARM core became keystones to most SoC designs
- Known for their high code density with relatively small embedded memory needs, ARM IP was inherently low cost and low power
- Proving MPU performance at MCU cost and power needs
- Without ARM, it is doubtful that the fabless industry would have ever been competitive again IDM proprietary IP
