Nvidia in court over semiconductor patents

2019/05/20

 

 

Two subsidiaries of IP licensing company Xperi have sued Nvidia in the US, accusing the technology company of infringing five patents related to semiconductor technology. Invensas Corporation and Tessera Advanced Technologies filed their suit, which claimed that Nvidia’s graphics processing units (GPUs) and system-on-a-chip processors (SoCs) are infringing, at the US District Court on May 8. Nvidia’s GPUs are incorporated into graphics cards and gaming laptops sold by Acer, Asus, Lenovo, and MSI, along with Nvidia’s own products, according to the claim. In Xperi’s first quarter results, chief executive Jon Kirchner confirmed the lawsuit. This isn’t the first time Nvidia has been embroiled in a legal dispute. Back in May 2016, Nvidia and Samsung settled a patent infringement dispute, ahead of expected rulings by the US International Trade Commission.
