Dongguan Luxshare Technologies Co., Ltd. has 8 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These matters are handled by 7 distinct examiners, which indicates a high degree of examiner diversity relative to the total actions. Despite this variety in personnel, the portfolio is concentrated within 2 distinct art units, suggesting a tight technical focus for these semiconductor and circuit innovations.
CHAMBERS, TRAVIS SLOAN is identified as the busiest examiner, currently overseeing 2 pending office actions. This leaves the remaining pending office actions to be distributed among the other distinct examiners. This structure means that most examiners are only dealing with a single action, while CHAMBERS, TRAVIS SLOAN manages a larger portion. The presence of 7 distinct examiners across the art units shows that multiple individuals within the same specialized units are reviewing the company's filings, which may result in varied examiner perspectives within a narrow technical field.
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 | 2 (25%) |
| §102 only | 2 (25%) |
| §112 only | 1 (12%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (38%) |
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.
