Yes, Some customers reviewing Akida 1 did put their research on hold to wait for Akida 2. I imagine they would have been pretty unhappy if they found out about Akida 2 shortly after they started making Akida 1.What’s your thoughts as to whether customers are going to wait for the 2.0 hardware development kits to to trial and prototype before signing licenses?
Have they even been tapped out?
Also bad news for SiFiveAn interesting development as U.S. lawmakers are pushing to limit American corporate engagement with open-source chip technology RISC-V, alleging that it aids Beijing’s semiconductor goals and could potentially compromise US national security.
Good news for Armbut bad news for Qualcomm I guess, considering they're working heavily with RISC-V chips.
And can be bad news for us as well. As we work closely with Sifive.An interesting development as U.S. lawmakers are pushing to limit American corporate engagement with open-source chip technology RISC-V, alleging that it aids Beijing’s semiconductor goals and could potentially compromise US national security.

How they will stop arm either? Arm have a full fledged presence in china.An interesting development as U.S. lawmakers are pushing to limit American corporate engagement with open-source chip technology RISC-V, alleging that it aids Beijing’s semiconductor goals and could potentially compromise US national security.

Will be interesting to see how this pans out as some reports suggest that crackdowns and restrictions are doomed to fail.Also bad news for SiFive
Does it mean that the tussel is going on for quite a time now. That is why LDN openly claimed we will not need Chinese money for brn developments.An interesting development as U.S. lawmakers are pushing to limit American corporate engagement with open-source chip technology RISC-V, alleging that it aids Beijing’s semiconductor goals and could potentially compromise US national security.

But ... but ... but, ARM ha(s/d) a major presence in China ... !!!???An interesting development as U.S. lawmakers are pushing to limit American corporate engagement with open-source chip technology RISC-V, alleging that it aids Beijing’s semiconductor goals and could potentially compromise US national security.

I suppose that's why they beefed up the IPO filing’s 330-page prospectus. Chinese market accounts for about a quarter of Arm's revenue.But ... but ... but, ARM ha(s/d) a major presence in China ... !!!???
Would need to check but I'm not sure SiFive architecture etc is open source.And can be bad news for us as well. As we work closely with Sifive.
I would imagine there are many companies who's products only need Akida 1. Like Fridge companies using the olfactory sensors (the meat/milk/last weeks dinner is off) and doorbell companies, non high tech drones, facial recognition, fatigue recognition, less sophisticated robotic situations, cost and wattage effective CCTV, smoke alarms and hundreds of similar functions that are in need of vast improvement compared to current standards.Yes, Some customers reviewing Akida 1 did put their research on hold to wait for Akida 2. I imagine they would have been pretty unhappy if they found out about Akida 2 shortly after they started making Akida 1.
However, there will probably be a number of customers for whom Akida 1 is more than adequate. There will be a pricing differential for the added functionality of Akida 2.
We know Renesas taped out several months ago, and we know that MegaChips was involved in the "back end" design of Akida 1500. The rest is silence.
No worries Papa. Hope Mama is doing well.
I take your point, which is why I included that rousing clip which puts a lump in my throat and brings a tear to my eye still, after all these many years and even though I know its from a movie and is engineered to manipulate my emotions...............
We are merely human and have buttons that can be pushed.
I get that.
I just think that even if Sean or Antonio or even PVDM got on the horn and delivered as effective a speech as that, without any credible corroborating news of substance to back it up, then, the next day or the next week when the share price slips another couple of cents we are in an even worse position because managements authority will have been further eroded.
If they had anything of substance beyond what has already been released, they would have done so already.
The situation has not actually fundamentally changed.
It still looks promising from their end.
More and more potential customers are evaluating our offering.
More and more partners, associates and colleagues are joining our, or inviting us to join their, eco-systems.
Stuff is happening.
It's just taking longer than any of us, including our board and management, would like, to tick over that point where it becomes visible to those outside the deal room.
We here are luckier than most in that we get to see hints of just what may be around the corner and have the support of other like minded BRNiacs.
But we certainly are being tested and it is not surprising that some are reaching their limit.
I don't picture Sean or any of the crew cowering in any ivory tower.
Having met some of them, my impression is of driven professionals executing a plan, writ with the benefit of previous successful experience, guiding our company in uncertain and definitely choppy waters.
But, like any of us, subject to the whims of others and operating in a competitive environment where not everything is within their ultimate control.
And also like us, without the benefit of hindsight, beforehand.
It just takes as long as it takes.
And we just have to suck it up.
Like people have had to, all throughout history.
Makes perfect sense![]()

Interesting this last slide notes that partnerships remain key due to rising complexity.
