SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) -Qualcomm has shifted its flagship chips to the latest generation of Arm Holdings' computing architecture with new features aimed at better AI performance, sources familiar with the matter said, a move that could boost Arm's revenues and help Qualcomm's chips compete against offerings from MediaTek and Apple.
The decision at least partially settles a question of whether and how Qualcomm would continue to work with Arm technology, following an acrimonious legal battle between the two last year, and the move is likely to raise revenue for Arm which charges more for the newer tech.
