Touch chip manufacturer Elan Microelectronics (2458) filed a patent infringement complaint against FocalTech (3545) in the Intellectual Property and Commercial Court on March 20. Elan Microelectronics found that the commercially available laptop computers are equipped with touch chips manufactured and sold by FocalTech. The appointed patent attorney firm determined that they fell within the scope of the patent owned by Elan Microelectronics.
According to Elan Microelectronics, the touch chip in question is a touchpad module used in a laptop computer of a single gaming model.
