Rambus awarded $306.5m in Hynix patent case

By

Rambus has won its month-long patent infringement trial against South Korean rival Hynix Semiconductor. A San Jose, California jury yesterday awarded compensation to the US chip interface designer in the sum of $306.5m.

“We are very pleased with today’s result ? and very thankful for the considered attention of the jury and the court in this lengthy trial,” Rambus senior vice president and general counsel John Danforth said. This case was originally filed by Hynix against the Los Altos, California-based company in August 2000. Hynix sought declaratory judgments that 11 patents were invalid and not infringed.
