What this shows Vishay's Innovation Score is 39.2/100 (top 39% 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 17.1 claims/patent is ABOVE the 14.4 median for these volume peers. More thorough claims than most filers at this scale, not just more of them.

Where Vishay's grants concentrate

Vishay Dale Electronics, LLC is a focused PatentsView assignee: 8 CPC subclasses with 50% of grants classified under H01C (Resistors). Peak complete grant year is 2016 (8 grants) versus a trough of 1 in 2022. By volume, Vishay sits between UNIVERSITÉ Libre DE Bruxelles and Witte Automotive GmbH.

Vishay's three-year grant acceleration

Vishay Dale Electronics, LLC shows 11 grants in 2022–2024 against only 13 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.
