Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
6 pending office actions • 3 art units • 6 examiners • 0 of 6 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 26 patents granted in the last 365 days
Amphenol Commercial Products (Chengdu) Co., Ltd. currently has 6 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are distributed among 6 distinct examiners, meaning every pending matter is assigned to a different individual. This distribution suggests a lack of examiner-level concentration for the current portfolio.
Despite the variety of examiners, the work is more concentrated at the departmental level, with the pending office actions spread across 3 distinct art units. LE, THANH TAM T is listed as the busiest examiner, although they are currently responsible for only 1 pending office action. This indicates that the workload is evenly spread across the distinct examiners.
The presence of the total pending actions in 3 distinct art units within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics area highlights a diverse but focused patent strategy. Practitioners must navigate the specific requirements of the 3 different art units while dealing with the 6 distinct examiners. This requires a broad understanding of examiner-specific nuances across the individuals involved in the total pending actions.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §103 only | 1 (17%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 5 (83%) |
