Rambus Plans U.S. Suit Against Hyundai (10/10/00, 12:37 p.m. ET) Semiconductor Business News In its latest round of legal maneuvers, Rambus has filed a motion to change the venue of a U.S. patent suit filed by Hyundai Electronics from San Jose, Calif., to a federal court in Virginia and said it plans to file its own U.S. patent suit against the company. Rambus Inc. (stock: RMBS) said its patent suit is in response to the South Korean company's case, which attempts to invalidate the company's claims on technology rights to high-speed SDRAM interfaces. Rambus has been attempting to force a number of DRAM makers to license its technologies for high-speed SDRAMs, double data rate memories, and controller interfaces to those chips. Several attempts at negotiations have broken down and resulted in lawsuits in the past three months. Rambus, Mountain View, Calif., has filed suits against Hyundai in Europe, and the company said it will add a patent-infringement case in the U.S. against it. Rambus on Friday reported that it has asked to move Hyundai's suit to the U.S. District Court for Eastern Virginia, where it has a pending lawsuit against Infineon Technologies AG (stock: IFX). According to Rambus, a change of venue would allow one court to handle the proceedings in the patent dispute and speed up the results. Rambus also said it has filed a motion to dismiss Hyundai's suit.
