HSP Hochspannungsgeräte GmbH currently manages 3 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These actions are distributed across 3 distinct examiners, ensuring that each application receives an independent review. This distribution across 3 distinct art units further indicates that the company's innovations cover a variety of technical classifications within the semiconductor and optics fields.
PHAN, MINH Q is the busiest examiner for the portfolio, currently responsible for 1 pending office action. Because each of the 3 pending office actions is assigned to a different examiner, no single individual has a dominant influence over the company's current prosecution outcomes. This spread across 3 distinct examiners allows the company to engage with multiple perspectives at the USPTO.
The presence of 3 distinct art units suggests a diversified technical focus for the company's active filings. PHAN, MINH Q handles 1 pending office action, which is consistent with the workload of the other examiners involved. This balanced approach across 3 pending office actions requires the company to manage different examiner styles and technical requirements simultaneously.
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.
