Start building the future on Arm.
Once you've set up your Arm Account (see previous section), you're ready to explore the features and services included with your membership.
Arm Flexible Access enables access to a wide variety of Arm technology which enables you to build and experiment*. The next few pages give you an overview of Arm IP Explorer, a tool to help you select which IP works best for your application, as well as an overview of the IP included in your package.
*Download access for IP and success kits is given to specific individuals at your company.
Did you know that Arm-based technology touches more than 70% of the world's population, including emerging markets?
Arm IP is at the heart of more than 280+ billion Arm-based chips that have been shipped to date, in devices that include some of the IP technology mentioned at the end of this chapter.
