Lam Research has 3 patents expiring within 2 years and 6 patents expiring within 5 years. These expirations may create opportunities for competitors and generic entrants.

Lam Research's key technology focus areas include Telecommunications, Computing & Data Processing. The portfolio spans 2 distinct technology classifications (CPC codes).

The Patent Strength Score (0-100, A-F) benchmarks a company's patent portfolio quality based on portfolio size (30%), claims breadth (25%), time remaining to expiration (25%), and portfolio diversity across technology areas (20%).

Last updated:

Patent Strength Score is based on portfolio size, claims breadth, time to expiration, and technology diversity using CPC classifications.

this entity is one of the data points covered by this site’s U.S. pharmaceutical patent expirations dataset. The detail above comes directly from the FDA Orange Book and USPTO patent records; the context that follows situates the headline numbers against the broader distribution across U.S. brand-name drugs.

The methodology behind every numeric value on this page is publicly documented on the the FDA Orange Book and USPTO patent records portal and described in detail on this site’s methodology page. Refresh cadence varies by underlying series; the page surfaces the as-of date for each number so readers can trace any figure back to the source release.

Practical use of this page is in combination with the comparison and ranking pages elsewhere on the site, which surface the same data for this entity’s peers within U.S. brand-name drugs. A single-entity reading without peer context can be misleading when an entity is an outlier on one axis but typical on another.
