`
`Statement of Precise Relief Requested for Each Challenged Claim
`
`A.
`
`37(C.F.R. § 42.104(b)(1): Claims for Which Review Is Requested
`
`Petitioners request review and cancellation of claims 1—3, 6, 8-10, and 13 of
`
`the ’216 Patent (the “Challenged Claims”).
`
`B.
`
`Petitioners request interpartes review ofthe Challenged Claims on the grounds
`
`set forth below and request that each of the Challenged Claims be found unpatentable
`
`and cancelled. An explanation of how the Challenged Claims are unpatentable is
`
`ref: 178774-680003. Eight claims are being reviewed, so $15,000 in post institution
`
`fees are due for a total of $30,500.
`
`III. Grounds for Standing Pursuant to 37 C.F.R. § 104(a)
`
`Petitioners certify that the ’216 Patent is available for inter partes review, and
`
`that Petitioners are not barred or estopped from requesting inter partes review ofthe
`
`Challenged Claims on the groundsidentified in this Petition. Apple filed and served
`
`its first amended answer and counterclaims in the ’1375 Case, first asserting
`
`infringementof the ’216 Patent by Petitioners, on November29, 2017.
`
`’1375 Case,
`
`ECF No. 97. This petition is being filed within one year of service of Apple’s first
`
`amended answer and counterclaims, and shortly after the District Court issued a claim
`
`construction order adopting certain of Apple’s positions regarding the breadth of the
`
`°216 Patent’s claims.

`
`14A-14F. Each performance domain 14A-14F includes at least one componentofthe
`

`

`
`specific functionality and associated components. Jd. at 3:45—52.
`
`“The integrated circuit 10 also includes a power management unit (PMU)
`
`28....” Ex. 1001, 3:52-53. “The PMU 28 maybe configured to control transitions
`

`
`performance domains 14A-14F in response to a processor either “entering a sleep
`
`state” and going to sleep, or “exiting the sleep state” and “waking” up. Jd. at 4:2—
`
`4:12. “In one embodiment, the PMU 28 may detect that the processor 16A-16B is
`
`entering/exiting the sleep state, and may cause corresponding transitions in the
`
`performance domains.” Ex. 1001, 5:52—54.
`
`“A performance domain may be one or more components that may be
`
`controlled by the PMU 28as a unit for performance configuration purposes.” Ex.
`
`1001, 4:19-21.
`
`“[T]he PMU 28 may be configured to establish a corresponding
`
`performance state for each performance domain.”
`
`Ex. 1001, 4:21-23.
`
`“The
`
`performancestate may include any combination ofperformance characteristics for the
`
`components in a corresponding performance domain.”
`
`Jd. at 4:36-38.
`
`“A
`
`-6-
`
`10
`
`

`

`ÿ ÿ
`
`at 4:45—-47.
`
`The PMU mayinclude “one or more performance configuration registers 30.”
`
`Ex. 1001, 3:53—54, Fig. 1 (PMU 28 including “Perf Config”registers). These registers
`
`specify the performance states of different performance domains based upon the
`
`“awake” and “sleep” states of a processor. “For example, performance states to be
`
`be specified in the performance configuration registers 30. Performancestates to be
`
`used when the processor 16A—16B exits the sleep state (awakens) may also be
`
`specified” Ex. 1001, 5:57-62. One embodiment of the PMU’s performance
`
`configuration registers is shown in Figure 2. See Ex. 1001, 7:43-9:29. In Figure 2,
`
`performance characteristic may be any configurable setting for a component that
`
`affects the performance of that component.”
`
`Jd. at 4:38-40. For example, a
`
`component’s clock frequency or supply voltage level may be a performance
`
`characteristic of that component.
`
`Jd. at 4:40-42. When the clock frequency or
`
`operating voltage is changed, power consumption and the performancestate of the
`
`domain also changes.
`
`Jd. at 5:14. “In the case of voltage and clock frequency
`
`changes, the PMU 28 may communicate the newsettings to the clock/voltage control
`
`unit 32.” Id. at 5:64-66. The ’216 Patent discloses other characteristics that qualify
`
`as a performance characteristic, id. at 4:40—67, 5:3-5:23, including memory size. Jd.
