What this shows Vishay's Innovation Score is 28.7/100 (28th percentile 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 Vishay?

Each dot is one of Vishay’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). Vishay’s own 13.7 claims/patent is at or below the 17.3 median for these volume peers. Volume here does not track with deeper claims; several lower-volume peers claim more thoroughly per patent.

Where Vishay's grants concentrate

Vishay Advanced Technologies, Ltd. is a focused PatentsView assignee: 4 CPC subclasses with 83.3% of grants classified under G01L (Measuring Force, Stress, Torque, Work, Mechanical Power, Mechanical Efficiency, OR Fluid Pressure). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (2 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2019. By volume, Vishay sits between Vilmorin-mikado USA, Inc. and Vital Alert Communication Inc..

Vishay's three-year grant acceleration

Vishay Advanced Technologies, Ltd. shows 2 grants in 2022–2024 against only 2 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.
