Infineon Technologies announced from Munich today that it would not capitulate to charges by Rambus Inc. that the German chip company is violating Rambus patents covering high-speed synchronous DRAM technologies. Though knowledge of further negotiations between the two companies was denied by an Infineon spokesman, a Rambus executive said dialogue had resumed....

Infineon vows to fight Rambus, Intel waffles. infineon vows to fight rambus. After Rambus filed a patent violation suit against the giant German chip maker Infineon, a Rambus spokesman said last week that settlement negotiations between the two companies had resumed. That statement, it appears now, was wishful thinking as Infineon has clearly stated it is serious about taking on the California licenser of chip design technologies. According to insiders, Infineon was already anxious to go after Rambus, believing its patents invalid, but was hesitant to be seen as the bully in a contest with the smaller Rambus. Now, however, Infineon has been freed to act as Rambus has, in effect, thrown the first punch....

Rambus sues Infineon in Germany. rambus sues infineon in germany. Rambus Inc. has filed a second patent infringement lawsuit, in Mannheim Germany, against the German Infineon Technologies AG.

Two months ago, chip maker Infineon Technologies AG was hit by a patent violation suit by Rambus Inc. Two months ago, chip maker Infineon Technologies AG was hit by a patent violation suit by Rambus Inc. over the use of synchronous DRAM technologies. In answer, Infineon has counter-sued in a Richmond, Virginia court charging that Rambus has not only infringed Infineon's SDRAM patents, it has illegally based its flagship Direct Rambus DRAM memory chips on Infineon patents. Infineon contends that Rambus used technologies previously patented by Infineon in its RDRAM designs, and cites the existence of technologies central to both synchronous DRAM and Direct RDRAM before Rambus applied for its patents....

Infineon Technologies AG Inc.'s suit claiming to own patents Rambus is basing its technology upon could have real merit and may "break Rambus' stranglehold on SDRAM and stop it selling its own direct Rambus DRAM (RDRAM) designs." Infineon is basing part of its suit on the fact that RDRAM designs rely on a "latch-up protection circuit" that Infineon's parent company patented in 1988. Infineon alleges that Rambus encouraged RDRAM licensees to use Infineon's intellectual property without the German company's permission....

IBM Corp. and Infineon Technologies AG have announced a joint project to develop Magnetic Random Access Memory (MRAM) technology. Infineon brings expertise in high-density semiconductor memory to the project....

The judge assigned to hear Rambus Inc.'s patent violation case against Infineon Technologies AG in Mannheim, Germany, has been promoted. The judge assigned to hear Rambus Inc.'s patent violation case against Infineon Technologies AG in Mannheim, Germany, has been promoted. As a result, the suit brought by Rambus seeking a halt to the sale, manufacture and use of Infineon SDRAM and DDR SDRAM memory devices will be delayed from December 22 to May 4. Infineon has filed a counter-suit in Richmond, Virginia asserting that Rambus DRAM is based on previous Infineon patents....
