MUNICH, July 7, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — The Final Determination issued by the Full Commission
of the U.S. International Trade Commission (US ITC) on 7 May 2026 is upheld after
the conclusion of the Presidential Review Period. This confirms that Innoscience
infringes an Infineon patent concerning GaN technology, resulting in import and 
sales bans against Innoscience.

"This decision once again highlights the robustness of Infineon’s intellectual property.
It reinforces our commitment to actively protect Infineon’s patent portfolio and
uphold fair competition in the industry," says Johannes Schoiswohl, Senior Vice 
President and Head of GaN Systems Business Line at Infineon. "With our industry-
leading 300-millimeter GaN manufacturing, we are uniquely positioned to scale innovation
and deliver the performance, quality, and cost advantages that our customers need
to accelerate decarbonization and digitalization."

This final ITC decision adds to a growing series of rulings in Infineon’s favor 
concerning its GaN intellectual property. In parallel disputes in Germany, the Munich
District Court (Landgericht München I) already found in August 2025, in June 2026
and beginning of July 2026 that Innoscience infringes three patents and one utility
model by Innoscience. The rulings of the German court prohibit Innoscience from 
importing, selling, and marketing patent-infringing products in Germany. Furthermore,
the court has ordered Innoscience to pay damages to Infineon.

GaN plays a pivotal role in enabling high-performance and energy-efficient power
systems in a broad range of applications, including renewable energy systems, data
centers, industrial automation, and electric vehicles (EVs).

Infineon is a leading integrated device manufacturer (IDM) in the GaN market with
the industry’s broadest IP portfolio, comprising approximately 450 GaN patent families.
GaN plays a pivotal role in enabling high-performance and energy-efficient power
systems in a broad range of applications, including renewable energy systems, AI
data centers, industrial automation, and electric vehicles (EVs). With higher power
density, faster switching speeds, and lower power losses, GaN semiconductors enable
smaller designs, reducing energy consumption and heat generation. As a leader in
power systems, Infineon is mastering all three relevant materials: silicon (Si),
silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride.
