Arm's royalty rates for its newest architecture, v9, are around 5%, double those of predecessor v8, according to management. As v9 represents a larger portion of revenue, Arm's blended royalty rate ...

Tablets today are no longer just for browsing and video calls. They now support creative work, software development, and even local automation. As tablets ...

But it's not a fair comparison. Not yet. RISC-V is still a child among grownups - an ISA in its infancy. It doesn't have the legacy baggage of x86 nor the entrenched business model of ARM. That's ...

Typically, since their inception, they have been x86 architecture-based, whereas nearly the entire world's smartphones are ...

Intel’s x86 won out on desktop and smaller servers while ARM proclaimed victory in low-power and portable devices, and for Big Iron you always had IBM’s Power ISA.

With the agreement, we’re going to have a consistent approach that is foundational so we have good predictability.” There are not a lot of specifics concerning what the big X86 customers want or what ...

Intel and AMD have established the x86 Ecosystem Advisory Group, aiming to harmonize the x86 instruction set architecture (ISA). This collaboration involves several prominent technology companies ...

Intel’s CPUs are based on an internally developed ISA called the x86 architecture that it first released in 1978. AMD’s processors, in turn, use a customized version of the x86 architecture ...

The two companies have announced the creation of an "x86 ecosystem advisory group" that's intended to "focus on identifying new ways to expand the x86 ecosystem." Besides Intel and AMD, the ...

An ISA dictates how a CPU reads and executes instructions. AMD and Intel may be fierce rivals, but they are the two major companies producing x86 processors today.

Intel and AMD share access to the x86 instruction set architecture (ISA), first introduced with the 8086 in the late '70s. By hook or by crook, AMD secured a licence to make compatible chips and ...
