by Kurt Shuler, On Apr 17, 2013

SUNNYVALE, California — April 17, 2013 — Arteris and ARM (LON: ARM; Nasdaq: ARMH) have signed a multi-year agreement that expands Arteris’ access to ARM processor core IP. The two companies have broadened their cooperation to aid the development of future Arteris coherent interconnect IP products that more closely integrate with Arteris’ pioneering FlexNoC® network-on-chip technology and ARM’s processor IP.

We are enabling additional interconnect options to support the rapid adoption of ARM technology. These new options will help ARM and Arteris customers build new interconnect architectures. This is another step forward for the ARM community and for Arteris, which was a participant in the ARM AMBA® 4 ACE™ specification process.
