Fabless chip companies

Topic

Fabless chip companies are semiconductor firms that specialize in the design and marketing of hardware devices and microchips while outsourcing their physical fabrication to specialized third-party manufacturers known as foundries. This business model allows companies to avoid the high capital costs of building and maintaining fabrication plants, enabling them to focus resources on research, development, and design. Prominent examples of fabless chip companies include Nvidia, Qualcomm, AMD, and Broadcom.
