OTTAWA – MOSAID Technologies Inc. signs a worldwide wireless patent licence agreement with Finland’s Nokia Corporation and, in unrelated news, ends its litigation with Micron Technologies Inc. MOSAID says the deal with mobile phone giant Nokia, the first major vendor of Wi-Fi enabled handsets to licence its wireless patents, also extends to other patents covering technology used in products under the Nokia brand. MOSAID also recently settled a patent dispute with Boise, Idaho-based DRAM heavyweight Micron Technologies Inc. The litigation was settled after Micron signed a 10-year licencing deal for an unspecified number of MOSAID patents, and the Ottawa company in turn acquired 400 Micron-held patents related to DRAM, Flash memory, and semiconductor process technology. “By settling the litigation and signing a patent license agreement with Micron, one of the world’s largest DRAM producers, we have achieved our goal of licensing virtually 100% of the global commodity DRAM market to our patents,” says John Lindgren, president and chief executive of MOSAID.
