Portfolio overview

STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific Pte Ltd has been granted 256 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific Pte Ltd at rank #1,616 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 68 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 21.3 claims per patent with primary concentration in G06F (ELECTRIC DIGITAL DATA PROCESSING). As a Foreign Corporation, STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific Pte Ltd is one of the broader-portfolio assignees in the PatentsView dataset. The composite Innovation Score of 61.7/100 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 99 grants, compared with 157 in the 2015–2019 window — a -37% 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. STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific Pte Ltd's 21.3 average claims per patent reflects complex, broadly scoped inventions that are difficult for competitors to design around, while a multi-domain presence across 68 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark STMicroelectronics Asia Pacific Pte Ltd against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
