Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
1 pending office actions • 1 art units • 1 examiners • 0 of 1 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready
Quanzhou Sanan Integrated Circuit Co. Ltd. currently manages a focused patent portfolio within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. The presence of 1 pending office action indicates a concentrated prosecution stage. This singular active matter suggests that the organization is maintaining a specific set of intellectual property assets rather than a broad filing strategy at this time.
The prosecution effort is characterized by centralization, as evidenced by the involvement of only 1 distinct examiner and 1 distinct art unit. Because there is 1 examiner for the 1 pending action, the entire active portfolio is subject to the scrutiny of a single individual. Such a structure limits the diversity of examiner perspectives but allows for a highly targeted response strategy within that specific administrative division.
OUTTEN, SAMUEL S serves as the busiest examiner for this portfolio, currently handling 1 busiest examiner pending office action. Because this examiner is responsible for the 1 pending action, the outcome of this matter is critical to the current success of the company's efforts in the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics sector. Practitioners should focus on the specific preferences of this individual examiner to optimize their prosecution results.
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.
