Rambus Must Pay $350,000 to Infineon in Microchip Fraud Case By Susan Decker Richmond, Virginia, May 9 (Bloomberg) -- Rambus Inc. committed fraud by using information from an industry standards committee to obtain microchip patents, a federal jury decided, ordering the company to pay $3.5 million in punitive damages. U.S. District Judge Robert Payne reduced the jury's award to $350,000, the maximum allowed by Virginia law. After deliberating about 4 1/2 hours following a three-week trial, the jury also decided that the company's actions did not constitute racketeering against Infineon Technologies AG. Rambus shares fell 44 cents to $13.26 in afternoon trading. Infineon's American depositary receipts fell $1.35 to $40.45.
