Panasonic sues Broadcom over patent infringement claims<\/b><\/p>\n
Broadcom rejected the patent catalog of Panasonic Holdings Corp, which the company claimed covered a “wide array” of Broadcom offerings company claimed in court documents.<\/p>\n
According to the two complaints, Broadcom devices, including microprocessors, wireless networking components, and integrated circuits, violate 10 Panasonic patents.<\/p>\n
According to the lawsuit, Broadcom is accused of directly infringing and continues to infringe on for more patent claims that include Patent Nos 6,927,664 (\u2018664 patent), 6,975,641 (\u2018641 patent), 7, 328,389 (\u2018389 patent), 6,965,107 (\u2018107 patent) and 9,473,268 (\u2018268 patent) which collectively are\u00a0 referred to as \u201cAsserted Patents.\u201d Panasonic owns all rights of the Asserted Patents\u00a0 that were legally and duly issued by the US Patent and Trademark Office<\/p>\n
In addition to asking for an indefinite court order preventing Broadcom from breaching its patent rights, Panasonic requested the US District Court for the Western District of Texas for an undisclosed sum in monetary damages. Broadcom is being accused of having made, used, offered for sale, sold, and imported ‘664 Accused products. Also, the claim accuses Broadcom of knowingly inducing clients to use \u2018664 Accused Products in the US in the customary, ordinary, and intended way through intermediaries, distributing the \u2018664 Accused Products.<\/p>\n
Furthermore, the complaints claimed that Broadcom intentionally violated the patents, despite the fact that Broadcom had included several of them in its\u00a0patent applications.<\/p>\n
Broadcom has sued Toyota for infotainment patent infringement\u00a0<\/b><\/p>\n
Toyota infotainment systems were the subject of a prior lawsuit from Broadcom in another Texas court over alleged patent infringement. The parties decided to withdraw the Texas action in May after the company’s unsuccessful petition for import restrictions at the US\u00a0International Trade Commission primarily on the accusations.<\/p>\n
The lawsuits are Panasonic Holdings Corp v. Broadcom Corp, Nos. 6:22-cv-00755 and 6:22-cv-00756, in the Western District of Texas of the United States District Court.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
