Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
6 pending office actions • 6 art units • 6 examiners • 0 of 6 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 6 patents granted in the last 365 days
Danfoss Silicon Power GmbH currently has 6 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These 6 actions are spread across 6 distinct examiners and 6 distinct art units, reflecting a highly distributed prosecution environment. MCANDREW, CHRISTOPHER P is the busiest examiner for the company, with 1 pending action. With 6 distinct examiners each managing 1 of the 6 pending office actions, the workload is perfectly balanced across the different art units.
The presence of 6 pending office actions in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics sector indicates an active and diverse filing strategy. Because the company is working with 6 distinct examiners and 6 distinct art units, each patent application is being reviewed in a unique administrative context. MCANDREW, CHRISTOPHER P, identified as the busiest examiner with 1 pending action, is one of six officials currently reviewing the company's work. This high level of diversification across 6 distinct examiners ensures that the company's semiconductor portfolio is not concentrated under any single individual or art unit.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 1 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
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 | 3 (50%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (50%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
Manual office-action response work runs about 10 hours per case. The time-saved bands below show what IP Author's prosecution pipeline typically delivers — a conservative 20% on the low end, 35% in the middle, 50% on the high end.
