Seoul semiconductor patent litigation in Taiwan to win

Seoul semiconductor ("SeoulSemiconductorCo., Ltd."), South Korea's largest light emitting diode (LED) manufacturer of environmentally friendly lighting technology, announced that Taiwan and LED lighting technology manufacturer AOT patent litigation made in favor of. It stems from the AOT court for Seoul semiconductor "warm white LED" green lighting technology in Taiwan patent is invalid. This time, once again showed the success of Seoul semiconductor warm white LED advanced lighting technology and its original patent rights in the world recognized. In addition, Seoul semiconductor in Korea and ItswELl and MedianaElectronics and other companies on the patent litigation, but also won. Since 2002, Taiwan AOT has already begun in South Korea for violating Seoul semiconductor's first "warm white LED" green lighting technology. In August 2005, the Seoul Central District Court (SeoulCentralDistrictCourt) ruling Seoul semiconductor win, ruled that AOT violated the Seoul semiconductor warm white LED lighting technology. In November 2006, South Korea's Intellectual Property Tribunal (IntellectualPropertyTribunal) rejected AOT for revocation of Seoul semiconductor Korean patent registration appeal. The Taiwan Intellectual Property Court (IntellectualPropertyTribunal) was also on August 2007, dismissed the request of AOT sentenced to Seoul semiconductor patent invalid appeal. Seoul semiconductor "warm white LED" green lighting technology can be widely used in high-quality and highly efficient LED lighting technology products, including: flash, general lighting, automotive lighting and mobile phone keys, has completed the registration of patent rights in the United States, Japan, the main China and Taiwan and other countries and regions. Is the result of the litigation, Seoul semiconductor days after the strengthening of patent and business expansion work, I believe there will be of great benefit, especially the Seoul semiconductor "can be widely used in the mobile phone market warm white LED" green lighting technology, the turnover will be up to $760 million, accounting for the overall market share more than 40%.
