Bosch Purchases Moore Microprocessor Patent Portfolio License
“The 21st century global marketplace is rapidly evolving based on technology adoption, and Bosch has made its way to the forefront by enabling newer and more usable product features that bring sophisticated benefits to their customers,” said Andre-Pascal Chauvin, Vice President, Licensing for Alliacense. “Bosch’s purchase of an MMP license is a tremendous validation of the strength and broad scope of the MMP Portfolio.”
The sweeping scope of applications using MMP Portfolio design techniques continues to encourage the world’s leading manufacturers of end user products from around the globe to become MMP Portfolio licensees. Over 40 global companies from the US, Europe, Japan, Korea and Taiwan have purchased MMP Portfolio licenses, including many industry leaders such as Fujitsu, Hewlett Packard, Kenwood, Mattel, Nokia, Philips, and Sony.
“By acting quickly to purchase a MMP license, Bosch will enjoy a real cost advantage over slower-moving competitors,” said Joe Minville, Vice President of Automotive and Heavy Equipment Licensing for Alliacense. “By removing potential financial liabilities and supply chain interruptions, Bosch has demonstrated its deep commitment to the satisfaction and well-being of their customers.”
The MMP Portfolio patents, filed by The TPL Group in the 1980s, cover techniques that enable higher performance and lower cost designs. These patents are fundamental to dozens of microprocessor-based key features and benefits in contemporary consumer and commercial products ranging from DVD players, mobile phones and portable music players to automobile systems, communications infrastructure and medical equipment.
About the MMP Portfolio
The Moore Microprocessor Patent Portfolio contains intellectual property that is jointly owned by the privately-held TPL Group and publicly-held Patriot Scientific Corporation (OTCBB: PTSC). The MMP Portfolio includes seven U.S. patents as well as their European and Japanese counterparts. It is widely recognized that the MMP Portfolio protects fundamental technology used in microprocessors, microcontrollers, digital signal processors (DSPs), embedded processors and system-on-chip (SoC) devices.
