Shanghai Tianma Micro-Electronics Co., Ltd. has 12 pending office actions in Semiconductors, Circuits & Optics. The matters involve 12 distinct examiners and 11 distinct art units, showing broad examiner dispersion with limited art-unit overlap.
WALSH, DANIEL I is the busiest examiner, with 1 pending matter. No individual examiner carries a repeated concentration in the available workload, so the profile calls for matter-specific review rather than a dominant examiner plan.
The near alignment between examiner and art-unit coverage suggests that many matters are proceeding in separate examination contexts. Counsel can coordinate recurring technical positions while tailoring prior-art analysis, amendment strategy, and interview preparation to each assigned examiner.
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 | 4 (36%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 7 (64%) |
How the docket's pending cases split across USPTO tech-center bands.
