A legal battle between Qualcomm and Arm Holdings officially kicked off Monday in a federal courtroom in Delaware — and we're getting a clearer picture of how the fallout could have seismic consequences on Qulacomm's Snapdragon X chip portfolio.
Arm, the UK-based semiconductor and software design firm responsible for chip architecture used by companies like Apple and Nvidia, alleges that San Diego-based Qualcomm's series of Snapdragon X chipsets copied key aspects of Arm's architecture and, as a result, constitute copyright infringement.
