`

`09:02:02
`

`
`Counsel, ready to proceed?
`
`09:02:06
`
` 6
`
`MR. BUDWIN: Yes, Your Honor.
`
`09:02:06
`
` 7
`
`MR. NEAL: We are, Your Honor. We have a few
`
`09:02:08
`
` 8
`
`unobjected to exhibits that I would like to move in. I can
`
`09:02:11
`
` 9
`
`do it now or whenever else the Court would prefer.
`
`09:02:14
`
`10
`
`THE COURT: Now is fine.
`
`09:02:15
`
`11
`
`MR. NEAL: All right. We will move in
`
`09:02:17
`
`12
`
`unobjected-to -- these are all DXs -- 85, 90, 113, 357,

`09:02:24

`
`THE COURT: Good morning, ladies and gentlemen. I
`
`09:03:15
`
` 2
`
`hope you all had a pleasant evening. Were all of you able
`
`09:03:18
`
` 3
`
`to follow my instructions not to discuss the case amongst
`
`09:03:21
`
` 4
`
`yourselves or with anyone else?
`
`09:03:23
`
` 5
`

`

`

`
` 7
`
`exposure in connection with the case?

`

`

`

`
`09:03:30
`
`10
`
`Mr. Budwin?
`
`09:03:31
`
`11
`
`MR. BUDWIN: Yes, Your Honor.
`
`09:03:32
`

`

`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Good morning, Dr. Prucnal.
`
`Good morning.
`
`How is your voice today?
`
`I think it's a little better.
`
`Maybe just move that mic a little closer to you.
`
`09:03:43
`
`20
`
`Hopefully you and I can do a little better with that today.
`
`09:03:43
`
`21
`
`09:03:45
`
`22
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Okay.
`
`Dr. Prucnal, yesterday I may have put the cart before
`
`09:03:48
`
`23
`
`the horse, and I'd like to summarize a little bit, if
`
`09:03:51
`
`24
`
`that's okay with you.
`
`09:03:52
`
`25
`
`A
`
`Okay.

`
`MR. BUDWIN: Can we get slide 104, please,
`
`09:03:55
`
` 2
`
`Mr. Moreno? And I think we checked that last element
`
`09:03:58
`
` 3
`
`yesterday before we left. Thanks.

`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, what is a patent claim?
`
`A patent claim defines the boundaries of the patent.
`
`And are the claims important?
`
`Sorry. Go ahead.
`
`Are the claims important?
`
`The claims are very important, yes.
`
`And why is that?
`
`Because the claims define what the patent is.
`
`Now, is what we see here a patent claim?
`
`Yes.
`
`Which patent is this a claim from?
`
`This is the '518.
`
`Now, are there other patents and other claims that
`
`09:04:34
`
`18
`
`you'll show us in your analysis?
`
`09:04:36
`
`19
`
`09:04:36
`
`20
`
`09:04:40
`
`21
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`What is the claim construction?
`
`The claim construction is the Court's definition of
`
`09:04:45
`
`22
`
`certain terms within the claims.
`
`09:04:48
`
`23
`
`09:04:51
`
`24
`
`09:04:52
`
`25
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Is the claim construction important?
`
`Yes, it's important.
`
`And why is that?
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 5
`
`
`
` 6
`
`09:04:54
`
` 1
`
`A
`
`Because it's important to understand what the claim
`
`09:04:56
`
` 2
`
`terms mean.
`
`09:04:57
`
` 3
`
`Q
`
`And have you followed the claim constructions in your
`
`09:04:59
`
` 4
`
`analysis?
`
`09:05:01
`
` 5
`
`09:05:01
`
` 6
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Yes.
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, why have you put checks next to each
`
`09:05:06
`
` 7
`
`element of claim 82 of '518 patent?
`
`09:05:09
`
` 8
`
`A
`
`In the analysis that we went through yesterday, we --
`
`09:05:13
`
` 9
`
`I went through each of these claim elements and found the
`
`09:05:16
`
`10
`
`elements in the accused product and checked it off when I
`
`09:05:21
`
`11
`
`did.
`
`09:05:21
`
`12
`
`Q
`
`And what do the checks next to each claim element
`
`09:05:25
`
`13
`
`prove with respect to claim 82 in the '518 patent and the
`
`09:05:30
`
`14
`
`accused products in this case?
`
`09:05:30
`
`15
`
`09:05:34
`
`16
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`That this claim is infringed by the accused products.
`
`What do the schematics that you showed us yesterday
`
`09:05:40
`
`17
`
`represent?
`
`09:05:40
`
`18
`
`A
`
`These schematics represent the circuits that are
`
`09:05:43
`
`19
`
`within the accused products.
`
`09:05:45
`
`20
`
`Q
`
`And I may not have been clear about this, but whose
`
`09:05:49
`
`21
`
`schematics are they?
`
`09:05:50
`
`22
`
`09:05:52
`
`23
`
`09:05:54
`
`24
`
`09:05:54
`
`25
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Those are schematics from Qualcomm.
`
`Are they confidential?
`
`Yes.
`
`Now, when we were looking at the schematics yesterday,
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 6
`
`
`
` 7
`
`09:05:57
`
` 1
`
`we saw that they were printed on this yellow paper. Do you
`
`09:06:00
`
` 2
`
`understand why they were printed on this yellow paper?
`
`09:06:03
`
` 3
`
`09:06:08
`
` 4
`
`09:06:09
`
` 5
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`Why is that?
`
`They're confidential documents. It's to distinguish
`
`09:06:12
`
` 6
`
`them from other documents. And, in addition, at the bottom
`
`09:06:15
`
` 7
`
`of each page, there is a statement of confidentiality.
`
`09:06:19
`
` 8
`
`Q
`
`And, Dr. Prucnal, do you have an understanding as to
`
`09:06:21
`
` 9
`
`why we had to look at the schematics on the ELMO instead of
`
`09:06:26
`
`10
`
`on the screen?
`
`09:06:29
`
`11
`
`A
`
`Yes. These are not in electronic form for us. These
`
`09:06:33
`
`12
`
`are hard, paper copies.
`
`09:06:35
`
`13
`
`Q
`
`To your understanding, were we allowed to make
`
`09:06:38
`
`14
`
`electronic copies of the schematics?
`
`09:06:41
`
`15
`
`09:06:43
`
`16
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`I understand that we were not.
`
`Now, what do the design documents that you showed us
`
`09:06:46
`
`17
`
`yesterday represent?
`
`09:06:49
`
`18
`
`A
`
`Those are also confidential documents from Qualcomm
`
`09:06:53
`
`19
`
`describing the chips.
`
`09:06:55
`
`20
`
`Q
`
`Now, to your knowledge, was Mr. Sorrells permitted to
`
`09:06:58
`
`21
`
`see either the schematics or the design documents before he
`
`09:07:03
`
`22
`
`showed them in court yesterday?
`
`09:07:05
`
`23
`
`09:07:06
`
`24
`
`09:07:08
`
`25
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Not to my knowledge.
`
`Now, why did you get access to them?
`
`Because I've entered into a confidentiality agreement.
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 7
`
`
`
` 8
`
`09:07:11
`
` 1
`
`Q
`
`Was it important in your analysis of Qualcomm's
`
`09:07:14
`
` 2
`
`infringement to review both the schematics and the design
`
`09:07:17
`
` 3
`
`documents?
`
`09:07:19
`
` 4
`
`09:07:19
`
` 5
`
`09:07:22
`
` 6
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`Why is that?
`
`This provides the information that I need to find the
`
`09:07:26
`
` 7
`
`elements of the claim in the accused products.
`
`09:07:30
`
` 8
`
`Q
`
`And would you have been comfortable asserting
`
`09:07:33
`
` 9
`
`infringement merely by looking at high level block diagrams
`
`09:07:36
`
`10
`
`of the accused products?
`
`09:07:37
`
`11
`
`09:07:38
`
`12
`
`09:07:41
`
`13
`
`09:07:46
`
`14
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`No.
`
`Why not?
`
`High-level documents could lack the necessary detail.
`
`Now, in addition to claim 82 in the '518 patent, do
`
`09:07:51
`
`15
`
`the accused products infringe the other asserted claims?
`
`09:07:54
`
`16
`
`A
`
`Yes.

`

`
`What is this showing us, Dr. Prucnal?
`
`This shows the -- the asserted patents and claims.
`
`And which claim did you show us already, Dr. Prucnal?
`
`That was 82, claim 82 of the '518.
`
`And so can we put a check next to that one as well?
`
`Yes.
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 8
`
`
`
` 9
`
`09:08:21
`
` 1
`
`Q
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, are there some similarities between
`
`09:08:24

`

`
` 4
`

`Yes.

`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Dr. Prucnal, what are you showing us here?
`
`On the left-hand side is claim 82, which was just
`
`09:08:52
`
`17
`
`discussed. And on the right-hand side is claim 90.
`
`09:08:57
`
`18
`
`Q
`
`So let me stop you there. So the left-hand side, is
`
`09:08:59
`
`19
`
`this the claim that you already showed us?
`
`09:09:02

`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Yes.
`
`And is the right-hand side a new claim?
`
`Yes.
`
`And then I see some color coding. What does the color
`
`09:09:09
`
`24
`
`coding represent?
`
`09:09:10
`
`25
`
`A
`
`The color coding indicates the analogy between
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 9
`
`
`
` 10
`
`09:09:15
`
` 1
`
`elements of claim 82 and the same or similar elements of
`
`09:09:20
`
` 2
`
`claim 90.
`
`09:09:21
`
` 3
`
`Q
`
`And so by proving all of the elements of claim 82 of
`
`09:09:24
`
` 4
`
`the '518 patent, as you did yesterday, have you already
`
`09:09:28
`
` 5
`
`proven some of the elements of claim 90 of the '518 patent?
`
`09:09:32
`
` 6
`
`09:09:33
`
` 7
`
`09:09:33
`
` 8
`
`A
`
`Q
`

`
`Yes.
`
`Which elements?
`
`The ones that are shown in the -- that are colored on
`
`09:09:36
`
` 9
`
`the right-hand side.
`
`09:09:37
`
`10
`
`Q
`
`And for the benefit of the record, it's the first four
`
`09:09:40
`
`11
`
`elements of claim 90 of the '518 patent?

`
`12
`

`
`Yes.

`Q
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, what evidence do you have that the

`09:11:29
`
`15
`
`accused products have a means for impedance matching at

`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, this is one of the pages you showed
`
`09:12:09
`
` 2
`
`us yesterday. What do we see here as related to the means
`
`09:12:13
`
` 3
`
`for impedance matching in the claim limitation?
`
`09:12:19
`
` 4
`
`A
`
`Well, we see the capacitors at the output, for
`
`09:12:23
`
` 5
`
`example.
`
`09:12:29
`
` 6
`
`Q
`
`And you're talking about these capacitors here that
`
`09:12:33
`
` 7
`
`you described to us yesterday?
`
`09:12:35
`
` 8
`
`09:12:36
`
` 9
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Yes.
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, if we look to schematic page 2003
`
`09:12:40
`
`10
`
`from the same exhibit, do we see additional evidence
`
`09:12:46
`
`11
`
`related to the means for impedance-matching term?

`
`09:12:53
`
`14
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`What do we see?
`
`We see the transimpedance amplifiers which have the
`
`09:13:00
`
`15
`
`feedback circuit that I described yesterday.
`
`09:13:04
`
`16

`
`17
`
`09:13:08
`
`18
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`So that's TIA I and TIA Q?
`
`Yes.
`
`And are those separate transimpedance amplifiers for
`
`09:13:11
`
`19
`
`each in phase in --
`
`09:13:11
`
`20
`
`09:13:12
`
`21
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Yes.
`
`Now, you mentioned feedback. What was the feedback,
`
`09:13:14
`
`22
`
`just to refresh your memory?
`
`09:13:15
`
`23
`
`A
`
`That's the path from the output of the amplifier back
`
`09:13:20
`
`24
`
`to the input of the amplifier.
`
`09:13:22
`
`25
`
`Q
`
`And what does that feedback path mean with respect to
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 13
`
`
`
` 14
`
`09:13:26
`
` 1
`
`the impedance?
`
`09:13:27
`
` 2
`
`A
`
`Well, this is a transimpedance amplifier. And the
`
`09:13:30
`
` 3
`
`feedback path provides low impedance at the input of the
`
`09:13:35
`
` 4
`
`TIA.
`
`09:13:36
`
` 5
`
`Q
`
`Now, remind us, what's the significance of low

`09:13:39
`
` 6
`
`impedance?
`
`09:13:42
`
` 7
`
`A
`
`The significance of low impedance is this is a path
`
`09:13:43
`
` 8
`
`through which current can flow.

`
`Can you explain that, please?
`
`Well, the low impedance and the transimpedance input
`
`09:14:45
`
` 7
`
`to the transimpedance amplifier enables the flow of current
`
`09:14:50
`
` 8
`
`out of the transmit filter, which is the capacitor, and
`
`09:14:56
`
` 9
`
`into the next stage.

`
`10
`
`09:15:00
`
`11
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`And how do you know that?
`
`That's indicated by -- that's indicated by the flow of
`
`09:15:05
`
`12
`
`current right here we have from the mixer output to the
`
`09:15:08
`
`13
`
`transmit filter output. And the transmit filter output is
`
`09:15:11
`
`14
`
`going into the baseband filter or TIA.

`
`BY MR. BUDWIN:
`
`09:16:53
`
`10
`
`Q
`
`Are there any claim constructions applicable to this
`
`09:16:56
`
`11
`
`claim element from claim 91?
`
`09:16:58
`
`12
`
`09:16:58
`
`13
`
`09:17:02
`
`14
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`No.
`
`Can you remind us what the aperture periods are?
`
`The aperture period is the period during which the
`
`09:17:06
`
`15
`
`switch is closed so that energy is transferred from the
`
`09:17:09
`
`16
`
`carrier signal to the baseband.
`
`09:17:11
`
`17
`
`Q
`
`Now, Dr. Prucnal, what's your understanding about the
`
`09:17:14
`
`18
`
`last part of this limitation where it says energy is
`
`09:17:17
`
`19
`
`transferred to such an extent that accurate voltage
`
`09:17:21
`
`20
`
`reproduction of the first signal is prevented?
`
`09:17:26
`
`21
`
`A
`
`Well, my understanding is that because the switch is
`
`09:17:28
`
`22
`
`closed for a long time, it is allowing the carrier signal
`
`09:17:33
`
`23
`
`to flow in for a long time, and causing it to be smeared
`
`09:17:37
`
`24
`
`out and stored in the capacitor.
`
`09:17:40
`
`25
`
`Q
`
`Can you explain maybe a little bit more what you mean
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 17
`
`
`
` 18
`
`09:17:43
`
` 1
`
`with respect to some of the prior art or prior circuits
`
`09:17:46
`
` 2
`
`that we discussed previously?
`
`09:17:52
`
` 3
`
`A
`
`Well, I showed an example yesterday of prior art,
`
`09:17:56
`
` 4
`
`which was a voltage sampler, and the invention, which is an
`
`09:18:01
`
` 5
`
`energy transfer sampler.
`
`09:18:05
`
` 6
`
`And in the voltage sampler, there were very quick and
`
`09:18:08
`
` 7
`
`accurate samples taken of the input signal. The switch
`
`09:18:14
`
` 8
`
`closed and opened very quickly. And during that time, a
`
`09:18:17
`
` 9
`
`very small piece of the input signal was taken so that it
`
`09:18:19
`
`10
`
`was an accurate sample.
`
`09:18:22
`
`11
`
`Whereas, during the -- with the energy sampler, the
`
`09:18:25
`
`12
`
`switch was closed for a long time. That allowed more
`
`09:18:28
`
`13
`
`transfer of energy but smeared out the signal that was
`
`09:18:31
`
`14
`
`being transferred.
`
`09:18:32
`
`15
`
`09:18:36
`
`16
`
`09:18:36
`
`17
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`Dr. Prucnal, the word here is aperture periods?
`
`Yes.
`
`Can we analogize the aperture here to an aperture in
`
`09:18:41
`
`18
`
`something people might be familiar with, like a camera?
`
`09:18:44
`
`19
`
`09:18:44
`
`20
`
`09:18:50
`
`21
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`Can you explain what you mean?
`
`Well, a camera has a shutter, which is like a switch
`
`09:18:54
`
`22
`
`letting light go into it. And the time during which the
`
`09:18:56
`
`23
`
`switch is open in that case is called the aperture. That
`
`09:18:59
`
`24
`
`allows the images to flow in, the energy from the light to
`
`09:19:03
`
`25
`
`flow in.
`
`RPX-Farmwald Ex. 1015, p 18
`
`
`
` 19
`
`09:19:03
`
` 1
`
`Q
`
`And you mentioned in your answer something about
`
`09:19:05
`
` 2
`
`smearing. Using your camera analogy, can you explain a
`
`09:19:08
`
` 3
`
`little bit more about what you mean by that?
`
`09:19:11
`
` 4
`
`A
`
`Sure. With a camera, for example, if you're operating
`
`09:19:16
`
` 5
`
`at low light levels, you can open up the aperture and cause
`
`09:19:21
`
` 6
`
`the shutter to be open for a long period of time. That
`
`09:19:25
`
` 7
`
`lets more light in.
`
`09:19:27
`
` 8
`
`But if you were taking a picture of a fast-moving
`
`09:19:32
`
` 9
`
`image, say, for example, a picture of a hummingbird with
`
`09:19:36
`
`10
`
`the wings flapping very quickly, if the aperture -- if the
`
`09:19:41
`
`11
`
`shutter is open, if the aperture period is long, then one
`
`09:19:44
`
`12
`
`wouldn't resolve that quick motion. It would just get
`
`09:19:47
`
`13
`
`smeared out, even though one could take that photograph at
`
`09:19:50
`
`14
`
`low light levels.
`
`09:19:52
`
`15
`
`Q
`
`And, Dr. Prucnal, does the patent provide a discussion
`
`09:19:55
`
`16
`
`of this claim limitation?
`
`09:19:58
`
`17
`
`A
`
`Yes.

`
`BY MR. BUDWIN:

`

`
`Q
`
`In the energy transfer environment, the storage module
`
`09:20:48
`
` 8
`
`illustrated in figure 82 as the storage capacitance
`
`09:20:51
`
` 9
`
`preferably has the capacity to handle power being

`
`10
`
`transferred and to allow it to accept a non-negligible
`
`09:20:56
`

`
`15
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`A
`
`Yes.
`
`And what's that describing?
`
`That's indicating that the storage capacitance has to
`
`09:21:05
`
`16
`
`be sufficiently large to handle the charge being
`
`09:21:09

`
`So can we check the first limitation?
`
`Yes.
`
`Now, the next limitation is further comprising the
`
`09:26:03
`

`
`step of transferring energy to a load during the off-time?

`
`Q
`
`Are there any claim constructions that are applicable
`
`09:26:15
`
`12
`
`to this term?
`
`09:26:16
`
`13
`
`09:26:18
`
`14
`
`A
`
`Q
`
`No.
`
`Now, if we look back to the patent, which is PX-2 at
`
`09:26:24
`
`15
`
`figure 82A, can you explain to us briefly what it means,
`
`09:26:28
`
`16
`
`transferring energy to a load during the off-time?
`
`09:26:35
`
`17
`
`A
`
`Yes. When the switch is closed, the energy is
`
`09:26:40
`
`18
`
`transferred into the capacitor and that's the on-time.
`
`09:26:45
`
`19
`
`During the off-time, the switch is open. And during
`
`09:26:47
`
`20
`
`that time, the capacitor is discharged into the load. And
`
`09:26:52
`
`21
`
`that's transferring energy.
`
`09:26:54
`
`22
`
`Q
`
`And is that con
