Intel countersues in Transmeta case
Intel has filed a countersuit against Transmeta in an ongoing patent infrongement disagreement between the two companies. Transmeta first sued Intel in October, saying Intel’s Pentium and Core PC processors violate 10 Transmeta patents. Intel, in a court document filed Tuesday, denied it had infringed any Transmeta patents, instead accusing Transmeta of infringing seven of its own patents.
Intel’s claims cover a variety of patents on processor functionality, including power usage and packed data. Transmeta’s patents aren’t legitimate because Transmeta officials “withheld, concealed, and/or mischaracterized” information about other patents and technologies in their patent applications, Intel lawyers wrote in the counterclaim filed in the U.S. District Court in Delaware
