OREANDA-NEWS. Chipworks, a Techinsights' company, today debuted Inside Technology, the industry's largest and most comprehensive online semiconductor database. For the first time, Inside Technology gives IP teams access to years of Chipworks' internationally respected analysis of thousands of globally sourced devices and market-leading technologies. The purpose-built web portal streamlines the ability to match patents to products and find competitive differentiators -- delivering valuable insights that can help fuel IP strategies or deliver design wins.

"With millions of devices containing billions of chipsets pouring into the global market annually, finding credible, court-defensible evidence of use or in-depth competitive technical intelligence is a daunting and time-consuming task," said Terry Ludlow, founder and CEO of Chipworks. "Inside Technology solves this problem and eliminates the need to search multiple sources by making years of our extensive technological research available in a single, powerful engine."

A robust tool for developing and supporting IP strategies, Inside Technology can provide hits against patents for accurate, verifiable technical details of potential patent infringements. This allows IP teams to qualify patents for purchase and support or defend against licensing claims more quickly

Additionally, by gaining access to Chipworks' deep repository of technical information, companies can determine what products are winning and why, and secure the in-depth information needed to understand the competitive landscape, enhance designs, accelerate time to market and generate revenue.

Inside Technology provides an efficient, cost-effective way to apply technology insights that support specific business goals. With access to technical data on over 16,000+ devices sourced worldwide, IP teams can obtain:

·      Basic Teardown Reports

·      Circuit Schematics

·      Component Comparisons

·      Die Markings

·      Die Photos

·      Genealogical Hierarchy Views of Products and Components

·      Materials Analysis

·      Product Inventory

·      Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) cross-sections
