Arteris, Inc., a leading provider of semiconductor interconnect technology, announced that its network-on-chip (NoC) IP has now been deployed in over 4 billion chips and chiplets. This milestone reflects the growing importance of Arteris’ technology in enabling the data movement required for complex, AI-driven systems across a range of industries.

Why it matters

As semiconductor designs become increasingly complex with the rise of AI, heterogeneous architectures, and chiplet integration, the interconnect technology that enables efficient data movement has become a critical component. Arteris’ NoC IP has established itself as a foundational system IP for modern SoC design, helping customers address challenges around performance, power efficiency, safety, and security.

The details

Arteris’ NoC interconnect IP has seen accelerating adoption, with recent growth driven by increased usage in AI-enabled systems. The technology is particularly well-suited for handling the rising compute density, energy efficiency requirements, chiplet integration, and system complexity of advanced semiconductor designs. Arteris’ variable royalty revenue stream has correspondingly grown, extending beyond the company’s historical annual growth rate of 20%.

What they’re saying

“While overall SoC shipments are in the tens of billions annually, high-end, complex SoCs used in advanced compute, automotive, and AI data-intensive applications number in the low billions range today. Arteris pioneered network-on-chip IP, now a necessary system IP technology for today’s complex semiconductor designs. As the first company to commercialize NoC solutions, they built a strong early market lead and continue to expand their portfolio to address the industry’s escalating design challenges.”

“Reaching more than 4 billion deployed chips and chiplets is not just a volume milestone, but a reflection of how essential data movement has become to modern system design. As AI systems grow larger, more distributed, and more heterogeneous, the data movement enabled by the interconnect architecture is now as foundational as compute and memory. We’re proud to see Arteris technology at the heart of so many advanced systems today from data centers to edge devices and physical AI systems, and we look forward to a rapid increase in Arteris connected SoCs coming to market, based on our customers’ innovation.”

— K. Charles Janac, President and CEO, Arteris, Inc.

The takeaway

Arteris’ milestone of 4 billion chips and chiplets deployed underscores the critical role its network-on-chip interconnect technology plays in enabling the complex, high-performance, and energy-efficient semiconductor designs required for the AI era. As semiconductor architectures become more distributed and heterogeneous, Arteris’ interconnect solutions have become a foundational system IP for modern chip design.
