Where Pixelworks's grants concentrate

Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (SHANGHAI) Co. Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 80% of grants classified under G06T (Image Data Processing OR Generation, IN General). Peak complete grant year is 2024 (3 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2023. By volume, Pixelworks sits between Pittasoft Co., Ltd. and Plant Planet International B.V..

Pixelworks's three-year grant acceleration

Pixelworks Semiconductor Technology (SHANGHAI) Co. Ltd. shows 4 grants in 2022–2024 against only 0 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.
