ARM designs the technology that is at the heart of sophisticated digital products, from wireless, networking and consumer entertainment solutions to imaging, automotive, security and storage devices. ARM improves people’s lives by enabling the intelligence in affordable, easy-to-use electronic products that transform the way we live and work. We work in partnership with a global network of leading technology companies which are using our smart low-power technology. Together we are enabling the future of a better world. 

ARM is well recognized as the market leader in the CPU and System IP industry and this has been achieved by consistently delivering reliable and high quality IP products. The cost of design and manufacturing is high and that warrants “right first time” approach for all IP and System products. Time-to-market is essential for our partners to take care of steadfast competition in the marketplace, being first would enable them to get premium value from the end products. In this context, Design Verification of CPU IPs is an exciting challenge requiring an engineering abilities that is both broad and deep.

So, we promise you endless exciting opportunities to experiment and go even further in CPU IP design!
