STMicroelectronics has extended its ARM technology licence, enabling it to continue to design and manufacture products based on a broad range of ARM microprocessor cores. In addition, STMicroelectronics has licensed two of the most advanced ARM microprocessor cores, the ARM1026EJ-S and the award-winning ARM1136JF-S, as part of its ongoing commitment to the ARM architecture. STMicroelectronics has been a prominent ARM partner since its first licence in 1998 for the industry-leading ARM7TDMI core.

Since then, STMicroelectronics has used ARM technology in a broad range of wireless and networking applications, and has also used ARM microprocessor cores to provide its customers with complex SoC solutions in the automotive and printer markets.

"ARM works closely with its Partners to ensure they are able to deliver innovative ARM Powered products, and this latest agreement with STMicroelectronics enables the continued use of ARM technology in a wide range of applications", said Mike Inglis, EVP, Marketing, ARM.

"STMicroelectronics' extension of their existing licence is a major endorsement of ARM microprocessor technology by one of the world's leading semiconductor companies".

"STMicroelectronics technology based on the ARM architecture continues to deliver real value to our customers, and our partnership with ARM not only gives existing customers stability, but also shows where STMicroelectronics is headed in the future", said Bernard Fontan, Director of Strategic Planning in ST's Telecom, Peripherals and Automotive Groups.

"This new agreement provides a very good opportunity to create innovative new products that combine the latest ARM technology with our expertise in mobile communications, convergence and multimedia applications".
