GlobalFoundries acquired MIPS, allowing it to now design and manufacture semiconductors. MIPS will operate independently within GlobalFoundries and focus on licensing processor designs, particularly those based on the RISC-V instruction set. The acquisition expands GlobalFoundries' capabilities, providing customers with more flexible solutions. MIPS has developed new processor cores called 'Atlas' for real-time processing and AI applications. This move indicates GlobalFoundries' commitment to bolstering its AI offerings and leveraging RISC-V technology in a rapidly growing market.
MIPS will continue to operate as a standalone business within GF and serve its customers across a broad range of technologies.
Owning its own chip designer means GlobalFoundries now has a broader offering to its customers, expanding their capabilities.
MIPS recently announced a range of new processor cores called 'Atlas' that it designed for real-time processing workloads and for running AI on edge devices.
GlobalFoundries has decided it wants that IP in its portfolio, making this acquisition a big bet on both RISC-V and AI.
