Have been using ARM services semiconductor companies such as samsung electronics, have begun to parted ways with the ARM. This is because they think the ARM has been abuse of power, improve license fees and forced to use its design. Another option is to RISC - V, a semiconductor design of open source assets. Samsung, Google, Intel, qualcomm and other companies are to promote the use of RISC - V.

On June 1, samsung electronics announced that it will serve as RISC - V software ecosystem (RISE) of the steering committee members, RISC - V is a nonprofit organization initiated the Linux foundation of open source software development projects. RISE is a use RISC - V software development organizations. Participants including samsung electronics, Google, Intel, nvidia and global IT and semiconductor giants such as qualcomm.

RISC - V is evaluated to hope the best choice of the left ARM of the company. RISC - V by researchers at the university of California, Berkeley, was founded in 2010, can produce similar to ARM chip performance of semiconductor. But it can reduce about 50% of the area and 60% of the chip power consumption. Most important, RISC - V is open source, don't need a licence fee. For these reasons, IT and the semiconductor company has been promoting RISC - V as an alternative.

RISC - V is positively tangible results. Qualcomm began in 2019 with RISC on its Snapdragon 865 - V microcontroller. So far, it has been for mobile devices, cars and the Internet of things application sent about 650 million RISC core - V. Google said it wanted RISC - V can become android level as the Arm platform.

But open source has obvious limitations. Open source code can be used by anyone to freedom, so they can become fragmented. This feature hinders the ecological system based on the stability of the open source consistent creation. As a result, several companies to develop software to create ecological system based on RISC - V is of great significance. In particular, it will make on the chipset based on RISC -v running applications and services are easier to implement, and to reduce the resources required to develop and maintain. RISC - V is expected to be applied in mobile devices, household appliances, data center and automotive applications and other fields.

Upcoming Arm, meanwhile, are trying to improve its profitability. It is reported that the company is considering to charge each device instead of each chip licensing fees. Equipment is more expensive than the chip, so the same percentage of licence fees for equipment will be able to bring the Arm is much larger than that applied to the chip.

Arm also plans starting in 2024 forced the customer only use Arm design. Samsung, for example, using Arm design and AMD graphics core make Exynos chips for smartphones, but the future will not be able to do this. When this Arm lawsuit against qualcomm have been known.
