ARM design IP blocks, they can make their own CPU (and now they are making one), eevn though that means competing with your customers.

They still don‘t fab them though, AFAIK they go through TSMC.

There are literally only 2 "fabfull" processor companies (Intel and Samsung) so you're saying something completely meaningless.

[dadoum]

Actually there are more if you count the ones which are not at the cutting edge but your point still stands, most high-end silicon companies only do design.

And where does TMSC go for the machines it uses to produce these chips?
