Yiguang and Osram cross-licensed extended LED cooperation
Yiguang announced yesterday that it has signed a patent cross-licensing agreement with OSRAM, expanding its scope of authorization to all areas, including automotive and lighting applications with promising growth potential. OSRAM's patent license for Everlight will expand from the limited area to the world. Light will also be a special LED product for OSRAM, and will initially expand from the infrared LED to the automotive OEM, which is a big profit for the development of the LED industry.

Encouraged by this bullishness, the three legal entities added a total of 3,151 copies yesterday, of which 2,566 were most actively invested by foreign capital.
In addition, Yiguang is aiming at the huge lighting market in mainland China. It announced a total investment of RMB 10 million yesterday. It has established a joint venture with Shanghai Yaming Bulb Factory to establish Shanghai Yaming Solid State Lighting Co., Ltd., which is responsible for high-power LED packaging, and Shanghai Yaming is responsible for system assembly. 50% of the shares held by the new company, ready to cooperate with the mainland LED lighting business opportunities, the initial will start from outdoor lighting, and will lock the official LED street lamp projections released this year.
According to legal person analysis, there are three positive effects in the cross-licensing case between Yiguang and Osram. First, in the past, each LED of E-Guang has to pay a patent fee for Osram. After the agreement is obtained, Osram and Everlight can use each other's patents. Reimbursement of Osram's patent fees saves costs. Liu Bangyan, general manager of the Everlight Production Group, confirmed that there is no need to pay Osram's patent fees in the future, but he stressed that the amount of patents paid to OSRAM in the past was not high.
Its 200 million light has obtained cross-licensing and also signed a foundry agreement. The legal person believes that the production capacity of Yiguang is large and cost-effective. Osram will borrow more than 100 million optical foundry to effectively reduce its own cost. For Yiguang, the foundry business It will be a big pie that can be expected.
In addition, Yiguang broke through the patent blockade and obtained the opportunity of international OEMs. The domestic upstream epitaxial wafer factory will also benefit from it. Liu Bangyan pointed out that as long as there is no patent problem LED, it may be used as a source for Osram foundry. Osram is handed over by Yiguang, which is the cost-locking effect. Therefore, in the die, it is very likely to use the LED of the domestic epitaxial plant.
Legal analysis, the third positive effect is that Everlight breaks the patent restrictions in all aspects of application, regional and international LED factories. Osram opens patents for regional and full product applications to Yiguang, Yiguang in Japan, Europe and the United States, and cars. In the lighting application, further seizures are expected. In addition, due to the simultaneous authorization of OSRAM and Cree and Nichia, Yiguang has broken the Osram patent limit, which is equivalent to breaking through the patent locks of the other two major manufacturers.
Ever since September 2003, Everlight has reached a patent licensing agreement for white light and colored LED conversion technology with OSRAM for some applications.
In this agreement, Yiguang pointed out that in addition to extending Osram's 2003 patent to all optical applications, including automotive and general lighting, and agreeing that OSRAM can use E-Guang's LED packaging patent. Both parties will be able to develop and manufacture LED-related products without avoiding the patents of each other.
The economic downturn LED market challenges and opportunities coexist. China has no real meaning. The latest picture of the electric light source industry base: Earth hour light out
