Portfolio overview

STMICROELECTRONICS PTE LTD has been granted 180 US utility patents between 2015 and 2025, placing STMICROELECTRONICS PTE LTD at rank #2,187 across all assignees tracked by PlainPatent. This portfolio spans 54 distinct Cooperative Patent Classification (CPC) subclasses, averaging 19.1 claims per patent with primary concentration in H01L (SEMICONDUCTOR DEVICES NOT COVERED BY CLASS H10). As a Foreign Corporation, STMICROELECTRONICS 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 64 grants, compared with 116 in the 2015–2019 window — a -45% 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 PTE LTD's 19.1 average claims per patent sits within the typical range for solid legal coverage without excessive prosecution cost, while a multi-domain presence across 54 subclasses balances depth with breadth. Combined with portfolio volume, these signals let analysts, investors, and licensing professionals benchmark STMICROELECTRONICS PTE LTD against peers pursuing similar technology classes.
