`U.S. Patent No. 8,749,251 (“’251 Patent”) for Samsung Galaxy S9+
`Exemplary Accused Products
`Samsung products, including at least each of the following products (and their submodels) infringe at least Claims 1, 10, and 16 of the
`’251 Patent: Galaxy J3, Galaxy J2, Galaxy A6, Galaxy S7, Galaxy S7 Edge, Galaxy S7 Active, Galaxy S8, Galaxy S8+, Galaxy S8
`Active, Galaxy Fold, Galaxy A80, Galaxy A50, Galaxy A20, Galaxy A10e, Galaxy S9, Galaxy S9+, Galaxy S10, Galaxy S10+,
`Galaxy S10 5G, Galaxy S10E, Note 8, Note 9, Note 10, Note 10 5G, Note 10+, Note 10+ 5G. The infringement chart below is based
`on the Samsung Galaxy S9+ (“Samsung Galaxy S9+”), which is exemplary of the infringement of the ‘251 Patent.
`
`
`Claim 1
`
`Claim 1
`
`[pre] An apparatus
`comprising:
`
`The preamble is not a limitation.
`
`Samsung Galaxy S9+
`
`[a] a sensing element of
`a touch screen; and
`
`The Galaxy S9+ comprises a sensing element of a touch screen.
`
`For example, the Galaxy S9+ includes a capacitive touch screen.

`[b] one or more
`computer-readable non-
`transitory storage media

`element and embodying
`logic that is operable
`when executed to:
`
`The Galaxy S9+ includes one or more computer-readable non-transitory storage media coupled to the
`sensing element and embodying logic that is operable when executed to perform the claimed method.
`
`For example, the Galaxy S9+ includes one or more touch controllers or system processors with non-
`transitory storage (e.g. Flash, EEPROM, HDD, SDD, etc.) embodying logic executable to perform the
`steps described below.

`
`[c] determine an amount
`of time that has elapsed
`since the sensing
`element last detected a
`change of capacitance
`indicative of a key touch
`on the touch screen; and
`
`[d] if the amount of time
`that has elapsed exceeds
`a predetermined time
`duration, then initiate a
`particular function of the
`apparatus.
`
`The Galaxy S9+ contains executable logic to determine an amount of time that has elapsed since the
`sensing element last detected a change of capacitance indicative of a key touch on the touch screen.
`
`For example, touching the Galaxy S9+’s touch screen and then removing the touch, thereby causing a
`change of capacitance, can cause the Galaxy S9+ to respond in various ways after a delay, indicating that
`the Galaxy S9+ determines the amount of time elapsed since the touch sensor detected a touch.
`
`See, e.g., analysis and evidence of element 1[d] below.
`
`The Galaxy S9+ contains executable logic to, if the amount of time that has elapsed exceeds a
`predetermined time duration, then initiate a particular function of the apparatus.
`
`For example, the capacitive touch sensor in the Galaxy S9+ enters a different sensing mode a
`predetermined amount of time after a user’s finger is removed from the touch screen. This change is
`readily observable using a standard oscilloscope measuring the capacitive drive signals a short distance
`above the Galaxy S9+’s touch screen. There is a distinct difference between the drive signal observed
`while a finger touch is in contact with the drive signal observed after removing that touch. This difference
`likely reflects a power-saving mode initiated after the touch is removed. The change occurs after a
`consistent time offset.
