SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: The
Commission instituted this investigation
on May 1, 2012, based on a complaint
filed by Microchip Technology
Incorporated of Chandler, Arizona
(‘‘Microchip’’). 77 FR 25747–48 (May 1,
2012). The complaint alleges violations
of section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930,
as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337, in the
importation into the United States, the
sale for importation, and the sale within
the United States after importation of
certain semiconductor integrated circuit
devices and products containing same
by reason of infringement of certain
claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 7,225,088;
6,245,597; 6,159,765; 5,760,720 (‘‘the
’720 patent’’); 6,559,783; and 6,847,904.
The complaint further alleges the
existence of a domestic industry. The
Commission’s notice of investigation
named as respondents Intersil
Corporation of Milpitas, California;
Zilker Labs, Inc. of Austin, Texas
(‘‘Zilker’’); and Techwell LLC of
Milpitas, California. The Office of
Unfair Import Investigations was not
named as a participating party. The
Commission later amended the Notice
of Investigation to change the name of
respondent Zilker to Zilker Labs LLC
and to amend the Complaint to correct
a clerical error concerning which
alleged Microchip domestic industry
product practices the ’720 patent. See
Notice (June 27, 2012); Order No. 7.
On September 6, 2012, Microchip and
the respondents filed a joint motion to
terminate the investigation in its
entirety based on a settlement
agreement and to stay the investigation
pending disposition of the motion to
terminate.
On September 7, 2012, the ALJ issued
the subject ID, granting the joint motion
to terminate the investigation pursuant
PO 00000

Sfmt 4703

to section 210.21 (b)(1) of the
Commission’s Rules of Practice and
Procedure (19 CFR 210.21 (b)(1)). The
ALJ found the issue of staying the
investigation moot in light of the grant
of termination. No petitions for review
of this ID were filed.
The Commission has determined not
to review the ID.
The authority for the Commission’s
determination is contained in section
337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as
amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and in
section 210.42 of the Commission’s
Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR
