`
`Plaintiff Memory Technologies, LLC (“MTL” or “Plaintiff”) and Defendants
`Kingston Technology Corporation and Kingston Technology Company, Inc.
`(collectively, “Kingston” or “Defendants”) submit this Joint Report On Claim
`Construction Issues as directed by the Court during the February 12, 2019 Claim
`Construction Hearing.
`On February 14, 2019, the parties met and conferred and agreed to narrow
`the issues in dispute for the claim terms below or agree to the claim constructions
`below.
`I.
`U.S. PAT. NO. RE45,542
`A.
`“maximum power consumption [of / for] the peripheral device”
`The parties agree to the following claim construction for “maximum power
`consumption [of / for] the peripheral device”:
`“a level of power consumption that the peripheral device adjusts its
`operational functions not to exceed.” (Claim Construction Hearing Tr., Feb. 12,
`2019, at 50:23-51:1.)
`U.S. PAT. NOS. 8,307,180; 9,063,850; 9,367,486
`II.
`A.
`“predefined access profiles”
`While the parties have not agreed to a claim construction of “predefined
`access profiles,” they have narrowed the issues in dispute. The parties proposed
`constructions for “predefined access profiles” following the February 14, 2019
`meet and confer are:
`MTL
`“mode, setting, control, or logic
`defined in advance corresponding to
`one or more types of reading, writing,
`modifying, deleting, or changing the
`attributes of the data that reside on the
`memory”
`
`Kingston
`“mode, setting, control, or logic
`defined in advance for reading, writing,
`modifying, deleting, or changing the
`attributes of data”

`Case 8:18-cv-00171-JLS-JDE Document 61 Filed 02/26/19 Page 3 of 5 Page ID #:1307
`
`
`
`As discussed during the Claim Construction Hearing, the remaining dispute
`between their constructions of “predefined access profiles” is whether the “access
`profiles” concern “attributes of data” (Kingston) or “attributes of data that reside
`on the memory” (MTL). In other words, this dispute concerns whether the “access
`profiles” relates to the memory device (Kingston), or the physical memory of the
`memory device (MTL), as set forth in the parties’ briefing and argument at the
`Claim Construction Hearing.
`B.
`“usage”
`The parties agree to the following claim construction for “usage”:
`“usage by a host device.”
`C.
`“the memory device is configured according to the at least one
`predefined access profile” / “how access to [said / the] memory
`device is configured”
`The parties agree that claim terms “the memory device is configured
`according to the at least one predefined access profile” / “how access to [said / the]
`memory device is configured” should be given their plain and ordinary meaning.
`The parties agree that the plain and ordinary meaning of the claim terms will
`be consistent with the Court’s claim construction of “predetermined access
`profiles”—i.e., if the Court finds that “predetermined access profiles” concern
`“attributes of data that reside on the memory” (MTL), then “configured” will refer
`to memory of the memory device, and if the Court finds that “predetermined
`access profiles” concern “attributes of data” (Kingston), then “configured” will
`refer to the memory device.
`III. ALL OTHER TERMS
`For all other terms in dispute, the parties did not reach agreement. The
`parties request the Court to consider each party’s respective arguments and issue a
`claim construction ruling. For the convenience of the Court, the remaining terms in
`dispute are provided in Exhibit A to this Joint Report.

`
`
`
`IV. OTHER UPDATES
`The parties would also like to apprise the Court that Kingston has filed
`petitions for Inter Partes Review (“IPR”) on all asserted claims of the eight
`patents-in-suit. Kingston’s IPR petitions were filed during the period of January
`29-31, 2019.
`Kingston requests the Court’s guidance on whether it will entertain a motion
`to stay pending IPR before the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office (“USPTO”)
`enters Institution Decisions in the IPR proceedings. Kingston expects Institution
`Decisions to start to be entered in approximately five-to-six months.
`MTL would likely oppose any motion to stay that is filed before the USPTO
`enters Institution Decisions.
