Judge tosses all but three claims in Rambus-Infineon suit

RICHMOND, Va. — A federal judge has tossed out all but three claims in a patent infringement case brought by Rambus Inc., which designs and licenses computer memory, against German semiconductor maker Infineon Technologies AG, the Richmond Times-Dispatch reported Tuesday (May 1).

U.S. District Judge Robert Payne, who is presiding over the ongoing jury trial here, also will consider a motion by Infineon to throw out all the remaining claims after receiving legal briefs from the litigants.

Rambus sued Infineon for allegedly infringing on its patents on two types of computer memory. The original suit included 57 claims covering four patents.

Infineon, one of the top global producers of computer memory, countered that Rambus improperly obtained technical specifications that led to some of the patents and was seeking to broaden the scope of its patents in the suit.

In tossing out the bulk of Rambus' case, the judge dismissed a key charge of willful infringement against Infineon. Rambus had alleged Infineon knew it was infringing on computer memory designs invented by Rambus more than seven years ago.
