Weird concept. A russian, fabless, company using arm design. How is this a 'russian cpu'?
This has come up a few times and it's a good question. It would be nice to know if they've done any special customizations or have any non-ARM IP in the chip. Have they disclosed any such details?
ARM supplies IP building blocks, but they don't require all of the IP in the chip be from them. You could design your own interconnect fabric, have your own memory controller (which might implement a custom encryption algorithm), have your own security processor, or have your own fixed-function blocks of one sort or another.
Even if a customer is only using IP from ARM, they at least have the benefit of choosing from a menu of which and how many cores, how much cache, how many memory channels, how many PCIe lanes, etc. So, there's value in being able to tailor the chip to meet your specific needs.
