Patent support

Contact us if you want…

  • the technical information on the other party for patent license negotiations.
  • to determine whether or not your company’s portfolio could be utilized for monetization, litigation, licensing, etc.
  • to determine by reverse engineering whether or not a latest patent of your competitor was utilized in their product.
  • to determine for risk avoidance which older products use content specified in a patent of interest.

Is any of your design engineers tasked with patent search? If so,--- 

Leave it to LTEC!

We can execute those tasks by utilizing our research skills thus freeing up your internal resources to focus on new product design, research and development.

This will allow you to dedicate your resources to R&D activities.

PATENT SUPPORT 

We offer intellectual property-related services that combine prior art search with physical product analysis services as needed.

This is our Combined Approach:

We do not only search for domestic and foreign prior art documents but also nonpatent documents, scientific papers, journals in selected fields, corporate news releases, product specifications, etc. For an actual investigation we propose a carefully considered project scope and deliverables that best suits your needs.

We compare our prior art search results conducted by highly qualified engineers and researchers with the technical data obtained by analysis of relevant products of interest. We provide total support for the protection and utilization of intellectual property with our diverse analysis menu lineup.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS FOR PATENT UTILIZATION

  • We can conduct correspondence and comparison investigations of technologies described in patent claims. The technological fields of patent we mainly cover are semiconductor packaging, process, structure, circuit, layout and sequence.

  • We also engage in consultation services within the fields of our expertise. 

PATENT PORTFOLIO ASSESSMENT

We can provide support for the extraction of valid patents (patents for which the utilization of the rights is possible).

Purpose of portfolio assessment

  • Extraction of patents for which utilization of the rights is possible.
  • Improvement of the pending patents.
  • Organization of patents for which utilization of the rights is difficult => reduction in maintenance expenses.

Fields we excel in

  • Power devices
    Si-IGBT, SiC, GaN
  • Memories
    DRAM, SRAM, Flash, RRAM(ReRAM), MRAM
  • Logic
    MCU, MPU, RF, Others 
  • Analog
    Power supplies, Sensors, Communication, Motor drives, Others
  • Electronic parts
    SAW/BAW filters, Capacitors
  • Display panels
