It's not a percentage of QCT revenue but a percentage of the "CPU cost" up to some amount I would assume.

There is a lot of value add on top of the CPU (NSP, Adreno, ISP) etc. so 2.2/.053 gets you $45 dollars per cpu as the cost of which they're getting royalties off of. I guess then for the $80-110 dollar chips the increase in price is for the NSP/Adreno/ISP + software costs + customer support, etc. You don't want ARM to have a royalties on those so the set cost of $45 per chip?

That number is also an average right, top tier 8gen3 has very expensive cores, the basic 6gen and 4gen have cheaper cores probably around $15 which drives the math down to $45.
