Analysis

NGUYEN, KHANH V is assigned to tech center 2800 and art unit 2817. The profile covers 1207 resolved cases and shows a 93.5% allowance rate.

The median time to allowance is 728 days, so applicants can focus on efficient written prosecution while still planning for the full examination interval.

The listed companies are Texas Instruments Incorporated, Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd., and Skyworks Solutions Inc. The leading firms are Chang and Hale LLP, Essential Patents Group, LLP., and FISH & RICHARDSON P.C. (TC). The high allowance result is the principal historical signal in this profile.
