`Patent Local Rules (“Patent L.R.”) 3-1 and 3-2. By providing the following contentions, Cypress
`
`does not waive any claim, contention, or argument regarding the factual and legal details of the
`
`following infringement contentions, and the following should not be construed as Cypress’
`
`preliminary construction of any asserted claim. Cypress expressly reserves the right to contend
`
`that the claims do not require construction, clarification, or interpretation. Further, discovery is
`
`on-going and Cypress will amend these contentions and disclosures if appropriate in accordance
`
`with Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Patent Local Rules. The following infringement
`
`contentions and supporting materials are provided pursuant to and in compliance with the Patent
`
`Local Rules and are not intended to constitute a waiver of any applicable attorney-client privilege
`
`or work product immunity.
`
`I.
`
`PATENT LOCAL RULE 3-1 DISCLOSURE OF ASSERTED CLAIMS AND
`INFRINGEMENT CONTENTIONS
`Based on the information currently known to Cypress and the reverse engineering and
`
`experimentation performed, Cypress provides the following contentions and disclosures regarding
`
`its claims of infringement of U.S. Patent Nos. 6,012,103 (the “’103 patent”), 6,249,825 (the “’825
`
`patent”), 6,493,770 (the “’770 patent”), 8,004,497 (the “’497 patent”), 8,059,015 (the “’015
`
`patent”), and 8,519,973 (the “’973 patent”) against BlackBerry Limited, and BlackBerry
`
`Corporation. (collectively “BlackBerry”) in compliance with Patent L.R. 3-1.
`
`A.
`
`Identification of Asserted Claims
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(a), based upon the information currently known to Cypress,
`
`Cypress contends that BlackBerry infringes Claims 14, 15, 16, 18-20, 23, 24, and 25-27 of the
`
`’103 patent; Claims 1-3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, and 18-20 of the ‘825 patent; Claims 1-3, 5, 7, 10,
`
`11-13, 15-17, and 18-20 of the ‘770 patent; Claims 1-4 of the ‘497 patent; Claims 1-2, 4-7, 13,
`
`15, 17-19, and 21-22 of the ‘015 patent; and Claims 1-8, 11-12, and 14-20 of the ‘973 patent (the

`

`“Asserted Claims”). Cypress asserts infringement of these claims under 35 U.S.C. §§ 271(a) and
`
`(b).
`
`B.
`
`Identification of Accused Apparatus
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(b), based upon the information currently known to Cypress,
`
`Cypress contends that BlackBerry infringes the Asserted Claims through their devices that can be
`
`updated through the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool or any successor programs and their
`
`capacitive touch-screen devices. Cypress provides a complete list of accused devices in the chart
`
`attached hereto as Exhibit 7.
`
`C.
`
`Claim Chart
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(c), based upon the information currently known to Cypress,
`
`Cypress provides the charts attached hereto as Exhibits 1-6, identifying where each element of
`
`each Asserted Claim is found within BlackBerry’s devices that can be updated through the
`
`BlackBerry Mobile Support tool or any successor programs and capacitive touch-screen devices.
`
`To support its infringement contentions, Cypress relies upon and cites to several sources of
`
`evidence including BlackBerry’s website, testing performed on the USB updating process for
`
`multiple BlackBerry smartphones, and reverse engineering of multiple BlackBerry capacitive
`
`touch-screen devices.
`
`Cypress notes that the Asserted Claims have not yet been construed as a matter of law.
`
`Cypress’s current infringement contentions are therefore based upon Cypress’s present
`
`understanding of the scope and meaning of the asserted claims in the absence of claim
`
`construction proceedings in this case. Cypress reserves the right to supplement or modify this
`
`disclosure following the Court's issuance of a claim construction order directed to any disputed
`
`terms of the Asserted Claims. Furthermore, discovery is ongoing, and Cypress will supplement
`
`the charts and asserted claims if appropriate in accordance with the Federal Rules of Civil
`
`Procedure and the Patent Local Rules.

`
`

`

`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(d), Cypress contends that BlackBerry has indirectly infringed
`
`or is indirectly infringing the ’103, ’825, and ’770 patents by knowingly encouraging its end users
`
`to use BlackBerry’s software to perform infringing software upgrades via USB. Cypress further
`
`contends that BlackBerry has indirectly infringed or is indirectly infringing the ‘497 and ’973
`
`patents by knowingly encouraging its end users to use BlackBerry’s capacitive touch-screen
`
`devices to download and use applications that display a number of buttons or other defined
`
`interactive indicia greater than the number of sense elements in an infringing manner. Cypress
`
`will amend and/or supplement this response if appropriate after further discovery, in accordance
`
`with the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure and the Patent Local Rules.
`
`E.
`
`Literal Infringement or Infringement Under the Doctrine of Equivalents
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(e), pending discovery and based upon the information
`
`currently known to Cypress, Cypress contends that BlackBerry has directly and indirectly literally
`
`infringed each element of the Asserted Claims, as indicated in the charts attached as Exhibits 1-6.
`
`To the extent any element is found not to be literally present, Cypress contends that each element
`
`of the Asserted Claims is present under the doctrine of equivalents. In addition, pursuant to
`
`Patent L.R. 3-6(a), Cypress may amend its infringement contentions if the Court adopts a
`
`construction of any of the claim terms that are inconsistent with Cypress’s position on literal
`
`infringement.
`
`F.
`
`Priority Date
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(f), Cypress asserts that the ’103, ‘825, and ‘770 patents are
`
`entitled to the effective application date of July 2, 1997. Cypress further asserts that the ’497, and
`
`‘973 patents are entitled to the effective application date of May 18, 2006. Cypress further asserts
`
`that the ‘015 Patent is entitled to the effective application date of May 25, 2006.
`
`G.
`
`Identification of Cypress’s Instrumentalities
`
`At this time, Cypress does not make the assertion that its own apparatus, product, device,
`
`process, method, act, or other instrumentality practices the claimed invention.

`
`

`

`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-1(h), pending further discovery and based upon the information
`
`currently known to Cypress, Cypress contends that BlackBerry willfully infringes and has
`
`willfully infringed the Asserted Claims by acting with reckless disregard of its infringement of
`
`the valid claims. BlackBerry acted despite an objectively high likelihood that its actions infringed
`
`the Asserted Claims. Further, BlackBerry knew, or it was so obvious that BlackBerry should
`
`have known, that their actions infringed the Asserted Claims. BlackBerry has continually and
`
`intentionally offered the accused devices even though BlackBerry was well-aware that the
`
`Asserted Claims covered such devices.
`
`In an effort to resolve BlackBerry’s infringement without resorting to litigation, Cypress
`
`made BlackBerry aware of the inventions in the ‘103, ‘825, and ‘770 patents in October 2011 and
`
`the inventions in the ‘497 and ‘015 patents in February 2012, and on multiple subsequent
`
`occasions. Cypress communicated to BlackBerry its belief that BlackBerry’s products infringed
`
`the claims of the abovementioned patents. BlackBerry ultimately refused to participate in any
`
`further licensing negotiations to cure infringement and, on information and belief, continued
`
`infringing the asserted patents.
`
`For at least these reasons, and subject to supplementation upon further discovery,
`
`BlackBerry has willfully infringed the Asserted Claims.
`
`II.
`
`PATENT LOCAL RULE 3-2 DOCUMENT PRODUCTION
`
`Pursuant to Patent L.R. 3-2, Cypress discloses the following documents accompanying
`
`this Disclosure of Asserted Claims and Infringement Contentions which correspond to the
`
`categories below. Pursuant to Patent L.R. 2-2 and the Court’s approved model Stipulated
`
`Protective Order for Litigation Involving Patents, Highly Sensitive Confidential Information
`
`and/or Trade Secrets, Cypress has produced certain documents with the designation of “Highly
`
`Confidential - Attorneys’ Eyes Only.” Cypress reserves the right to modify, amend, supplement,
`
`or otherwise alter the production of documents made pursuant to this Rule based upon further
`
`investigation and information obtained in the course of litigation in this matter or otherwise.

`EXHIBIT 1
`Cypress’s Disclosure of Asserted Claims and Infringement Contentions for U.S. Patent No. 6,249,825
`
`This infringement claim chart identifies specifically where each limitation of each asserted claim is found within the BlackBerry Perl 9100
`Smartphone (“Accused Product”) (model number BlackBerry 9100). The BlackBerry Perl 9100 Smartphone is representative of all BlackBerry
`phones that can be updated through the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool, any successor programs thereof, and any equivalent web-based
`programs, as they all operate in essentially the same way and, therefore, infringe each claim in essentially the same way. A more complete list of the
`Accused Products and the steps undertaken to test the accused devices may be found in the accompanying disclosure of asserted claims and accused
`devices.
`
`CLAIM 1
`1. A system for reconfiguring a
`peripheral device having a first
`configuration connected by a
`computer bus and a port to a host
`computer, the system comprising:
`
`To the extent the preamble is found to be limiting, the Accused Product, which is a peripheral device, is
`configured to communicate with a PC, which is a host computer, over a Universal Serial Bus (“USB”),
`which is a computer bus, through the USB port of the Accused Product.
`
`See e.g., BlackBerry Perl, Safety and Product Information, page 8 (highlighting added):
`
`See also e.g., BlackBerry Perl 9100/9105 Smartphones, User Guide (Version: 6.0), pp. 228, 241, and 303:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20

`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 7
`
`

`

`Further, the Accused Product has a first configuration.

`
`

`

`See also e.g., screenshot from BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool while the Accused Product is connected to
`the PC:

`
`3
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 9
`
`

`

`At least part of the configuration of the Accused Product includes, but is not limited to, Software Version 6.0
`Bundle 1966 (v6.0.0.461 Platform 6.6.0.137) and WLAN Version 4.3.0.38.
`
`Finally, the first configuration can also be shown during the initial detection of the device. See e.g., screenshot
`from the USB Analyzer Tool:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`

`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 10
`
`

`

`a first circuit configured to download
`information for a second configuration
`from the host computer into the
`peripheral device over the computer
`bus; and
`
`The Accused Product (e.g., the peripheral device) contains a first circuit (e.g., one or more circuits
`within a system processor) that is configured to connect to the user’s personal computer (e.g., a host
`computer) over a USB connection (e.g., the computer bus) to download information.
`
`The Accused Product contains one or more circuits to implement the functionality of the device (e.g., an Intel
`XScale PXA270 processor at 624 MHz). See e.g., http://www.informationweek.com/mobile/mobile-
`devices/rim-gets-bold-with-3g-blackberry-9000/d/d-id/1067735:

`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 11
`
`

`

`For example, on information and belief, the Intel XScale PXA270 processor at 624 MHz contains multiple
`USB controllers to implement various USB functions. See, the Intel PXA 27X datasheet, http://int.xscale-
`freak.com/XSDoc/PXA27X/28000205.pdf , which provides the following block diagram at page 2-2

`

`The Accused Product, by operation of the circuits, includes the functionality of downloading information from
`the host computer over the computer bus. See e.g., BlackBerry Perl 9100/9105 Smartphones, User Guide
`(Version: 6.0), pp. 228 and 241:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`
`8
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 14
`
`

`

`When the Accused Product is connected to the user’s PC while the PC is running the BlackBerry
`Desktop Software Tool, the first circuit configured to download information downloads a second
`configuration from the PC to the Accused Product over the USB connection.
`
`See, e.g., several screenshots from the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20

`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 15
`
`

`

`a second circuit configured to
`electronically simulate a physical
`disconnection and reconnection of the
`peripheral device over said computer
`bus to reconfigure the peripheral
`device to said second configuration.
`
`(showing the Accused Product downloading information for a second configuration from the host computer
`over the computer bus).
`
`The Accused Product (e.g., the peripheral device) contains a second circuit (e.g., one or more circuits
`within a system processor) that is configured to electronically simulate a physical disconnection and
`reconnection of the Accused Product over the USB connection (e.g., the computer bus).
`
`The Accused Product includes circuitry that simulates a disconnection and reconnection of the device
`electronically.
`
`Based on the documentation for the Accused Product, it complies with the USB specification. See e.g.,
`BlackBerry Perl, Safety and Product Information, page 8 (highlighting added):
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`
`10
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 16
`
`

`

`The USB 2.0 Specification expressly states that an electrical switch capable of performing connecting and
`disconnecting is provided on at least the D+ line on the peripheral device (e.g., the Accused Product) side of
`the USB bus. See, e.g., “Universal Serial Bus Specification”, Revision 2.0, April 27, 2000, Figure 7-1 and
`page 120:
`
`This electronic simulation of a disconnection and reconnection can be detected by the USB Analyzer Tool
`while the USB cable remains connected. See e.g., screenshot from the USB Analyzer Tool:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`
`11
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 17
`
`

`

`Additionally, the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool acknowledges the electronically simulated disconnection
`and reconnection of the Accused Product performed by the second circuit. The BlackBerry Desktop Software
`Tool instructs the user not to disconnect the USB cable, but shows a “Disconnected” status to the user. See,
`e.g., screenshots from the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool – the first screenshot shows a “Disconnected”
`status at the bottom right-hand corner but the second screenshot does not show such status, thereby indicating
`that an electronically simulated disconnection and reconnection of the Accused Product has occurred:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`
`12
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 18
`
`

`

`In response to, the electronic simulation of a disconnection and reconnection, the Accused Product (e.g.,
`the peripheral device) is reconfigured to the second configuration.
`
`After the second circuit within the Accused Product performs the electronic simulation of a disconnection and
`reconnection discussed above, the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool informs the user that the Software
`Update is completed. See, e.g., screenshot from the BlackBerry Desktop Software Tool:
`
`Ex. 1
`Claims 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 10, 11-13, 15-17, 18-20
`
`13
`
`BLACKBERRY EX. 1008, pg. 19
`
`

`

`At this point, the Accused Product has been reconfigured to the second configuration as can be seen on the
`device.
