Infineon Technologies, a global provider of DRAM and other semiconductor technologies, on Monday announced that it has filed a complaint with the US International Trade Commission against Japanese memory firm Elpida.
Infineon alleges that Elpida has willingly violated four patents “covering key inventions in semiconductor processing and device manufacturing.”
“Infineon has always been at the forefront of advanced semiconductor processing technologies. We will protect our intellectual property rights, which arise from our commitment to cutting-edge research and development,” said Prof. Dr. Hermann Eul, Member of the Management Board, Sales, Marketing, Technology and R&D at Infineon Technologies.
Infineon has requested an exclusion order that, if granted, would bar Elpida from importing products into the United States that contain the intellectual property in contention.
