The portfolio relates back to an initial filing in 1981, with over 50 new patents recently issuing that will have a term until 2027 or 2028.

PMC has agreed to settle and dismiss its patent litigation against Motorola Mobility currently pending in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Texas. PMC’s patents were asserted against Motorola Mobility’s cable television set-top boxes.

John C. Harvey, company founder and an inventor of the PMC technology said, “We are pleased that this matter is resolved. We spent almost thirty years developing and patenting the technology that is now emerging fully. With the Motorola Mobility license behind us, PMC can now focus on its many other opportunities.”
