Intel Corp., the world’s largest chipmaker, was accused of infringing patents owned by a Pennsylvania company over ways to improve how power is delivered to an electronic circuit.
X2Y Attenuators LLC, based in Erie, Pennsylvania, filed a complaint yesterday with the U.S. International Trade Commission in Washington, and a civil suit in its hometown. The ITC complaint seeks to block imports of Intel’s microprocessors, including its high-end desktop Core i7 chip, as well as Apple Inc. and Hewlett-Packard Co. computers that run on the processor.
