The verdict
Avago holds 1,321 US patents across 107 technology areas, rank #324 of 50,000 tracked assignees.
Avago Technologies General IP (singapore) Pte. Ltd. has been granted 1,321 US utility patents between 2015 and 2019, placing Avago Technologies General IP (singapore) Pte. Ltd. at rank #324 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 107 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 20.7 claims per patent with primary concentration in H04L (TRANSMISSION OF DIGITAL INFORMATION, e.g. TELEGRAPHIC COMMUNICATION). As a Foreign Corporation, Avago Technologies General IP (singapore) Pte. Ltd. is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Avago sits between Sanofi-aventis Deutschland Gmbh (1,348 patents, rank #320) and Black & Decker Inc. (1,312 patents, rank #328) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 62.3/100 blends portfolio volume, filing velocity, technology breadth, and claim depth into a single comparable measure drawn directly from USPTO PatentsView records.
Filing cadence tells the strategic story. Between 2020 and 2025 the company received 0 grants, compared with 1,321 in the 2015–2019 window, a -100% shift in five-year velocity. A cooling filing rate may reflect portfolio consolidation, shifting priorities, or reduced R&D throughput. The Foreign Corporation classification further shapes interpretation, since corporate, government, and individual filers pursue patents for materially different reasons.
Claim depth and technology breadth together indicate competitive posture. Avago Technologies General IP (singapore) Pte. Ltd.'s 20.7 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a diversified footprint across 100+ CPC subclasses spreads risk across many technology fronts. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Avago Technologies General IP (singapore) Pte. Ltd. against peers pursuing similar technology classes.

How to use this portfolio
Avago's 1,321 grants land it in the top 2% by Innovation Score, but volume alone doesn't tell you where the strength sits.
Patent counts and the Innovation Score measure patenting activity, not commercial success or the legal strength of any patent. Many patents are filed defensively. Verify the status of an individual patent against official USPTO records.
