Portfolio overview

Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation has been granted 161 US utility patents between 2019 and 2025, placing Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation at rank #2,427 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 30 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 12.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H10D (INORGANIC ELECTRIC SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES). As a Foreign Corporation, Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation is one of the more focused assignees in the PatentsView dataset. By volume, Powerchip sits between ISP Investments Llc (161 patents, rank #2,423) and AMI Industries, Inc. (160 patents, rank #2,431) - the closest US assignees by grant volume. The composite Innovation Score of 54.9/100 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 157 grants, compared with 4 in the 2015–2019 window, a +3825% shift in five-year velocity. An acceleration of this magnitude signals aggressive R&D investment and expanding technical ambition. 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. Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation's 12.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 30 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark Powerchip Semiconductor Manufacturing Corporation against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
