What this shows Iq-analog's Innovation Score is 41.8/100 (top 32% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for Iq-analog?

Each dot is one of Iq-analog’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). Iq-analog’s own 21.8 claims/patent is ABOVE the 10.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Iq-analog's grants concentrate

IQ-Analog Corporation is a focused PatentsView assignee: 14 CPC subclasses with 75.8% of grants classified under H03M (CODING; DECODING; Code Conversion IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2015 (10 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2017. By volume, Iq-analog sits between HotaluX, Ltd. and Innovative Timing Systems, LLC.

Iq-analog's three-year grant acceleration

IQ-Analog Corporation shows 5 grants in 2022–2024 against only 10 in 2019–2021. That prior window is too thin for a growth multiple (rename and spin-out assignees look artificially high when the baseline is near zero), so PlainPatent withholds a ranked acceleration claim here.
