Technology area: Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics
4 pending office actions • 3 art units • 3 examiners • 0 of 4 (0%) have an AI response strategy ready • 22 patents granted in the last 365 days
Rf360 Singapore Pte. Ltd. currently manages 5 pending office actions within the Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics technology area. These matters are distributed across 4 distinct examiners and 4 distinct art units. This distribution indicates that the company's prosecution is spread across multiple specialized groups at the USPTO, rather than being concentrated under a single supervisory patent examiner.
The busiest examiner, PATEL, RAKESH BHASKARBHAI, is responsible for 2 pending office actions. This examiner handles more of the company's work than the other 4 distinct examiners, who each manage the remaining actions. Practitioners should note that while the portfolio is small, it still requires navigating the preferences of 4 different individuals across 4 separate art units.
The alignment of 4 distinct art units with 5 pending actions suggests that most filings are being reviewed in isolation. This requires a prosecution strategy that accounts for the unique technical standards and examination trends within each specific art unit. Coordinating responses across these 4 distinct examiners is necessary to ensure consistency in the company's semiconductor and optics patent claims.
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 (50%) |
| §102 only | 1 (25%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 1 (25%) |
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.
