Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
7 pending office actions • 3 art units • 7 examiners • 0 of 7 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 14 patents granted in the last 365 days
Japan Aviation Electronics Industry Ltd. has 7 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. Those matters involve 7 distinct examiners but 3 distinct art units, showing examiner-level dispersion within a smaller set of technical examination groups.
NGUYEN, TRUC T is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No single examiner accounts for more than the listed share of the pending work, so prosecution oversight should emphasize matter-specific review rather than a uniform examiner strategy.
The art-unit distribution suggests that related technical issues may recur within some units even though the examiner assignments differ. Counsel can use that structure to coordinate claim amendments, disclosure positions, and prior-art responses across matters handled in the same units.
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 |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (14%) |
| §103 only | 1 (14%) |
| §102 only | 2 (29%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 3 (43%) |
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.
