This portfolio spans 32 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 18.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01L (SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES NOT COVERED BY CLASS H10). As a US Corporation, Newport Fab, Llc is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Newport sits between Berkshire Grey Operating Company, Inc.
