What this shows United's Innovation Score is 38.2/100 (top 41% of the PatentsView-derived corpus). The chart places that score against the nearest Innovation Score peers plus corpus poles, not a reprint of the volume ranking.

Does more volume mean deeper claims for United?

Each dot is one of United’s 8 nearest volume peers (same corpus rank neighbourhood as the chart above), placed by total granted patents (horizontal) against average claims per patent (vertical). United’s own 15.6 claims/patent is at or below the 18.8 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where United's grants concentrate

United Semiconductor Japan Co., Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 13 CPC subclasses with 62.5% of grants classified under H10D (Inorganic Electric Semiconductor Devices). Peak complete grant year is 2020 (7 grants) versus a trough of 2 in 2022. By volume, United sits between Universite DE Rouen and University of Central Lancashire.

United's three-year grant acceleration

United Semiconductor Japan Co., Ltd. shows 9 grants in 2022–2024 against only 12 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.
