`
` Q. And, Mr. Credelle, have you been deposed
`
` before?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. About how many times?
`
` A. I've lost count, but it's 20 or 30 at 11:08:32
`
` least.
`
` Q. Okay. Have you been deposed by
`
` videoconference before like we're doing now?
`
` A. Yes. During the last two years, almost
`
` exclusively. 11:08:50
`
` Q. Okay. So you're familiar with the
`
` deposition process generally?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. So even though we're taking this
`
` deposition remotely, you understand that you're 11:08:58
`
` under oath to tell the truth under penalty of
`
` perjury?
`
` A. I do.
`
` Q. And as we have a reporter here today
`
` taking down everything we say, it's important not 11:09:08
`
` to talk over one another.
`
` Do you understand that?
`
` A. Yes. Yes.
`
` Q. Where are you located today?

`
` Q. Okay. Is there anybody else in the room
`

`
` A. No, there's not. 11:09:30
`
` Q. Do you have any electronic devices in the
`
` room with you, other than the computer that you're
`
` using for the remote deposition?
`
` A. I do. My cell phone is in the room. It's
`
` on mute. I can remove it if you'd like, but it's 11:09:44
`
` in the room.
`
` Q. Okay. That -- that's fine just as long as
`
` you understand you're not -- not to use that cell
`
` phone to communicate with anyone during the
`
` deposition. 11:09:57
`
` A. Yes, I agree.
`
` Q. Okay. Do you have any documents in the
`
` room with you?
`
` A. Yes. I did print out two or three of the
`
` documents that I found facilitate these kind of 11:10:07
`
` depositions.
`
` I have my report printed, no -- no
`
` notations on it. I have Mr. Hatalis's report. I
`
` have the '880 patent and the Miyazawa patent
`
` printed it out. 11:10:19

`
` I didn't print out Morosawa. It's too

`
` So the other ones, we could use the
`
` electronic version.
`
` Q. Okay. And none of those documents have 11:10:29
`
` any markings or notations on them?
`
` A. That's correct.
`
` Q. Okay. And any other documents, any notes
`
` or anything with you?
`
` A. No other documents on my desk or nearby. 11:10:42
`
` Yes, they're all put away. Other documents are in
`
` drawers and not -- not accessible.
`
` Q. Okay. So did you submit a declaration on
`
` behalf of Solas OLED Limited in IPR2021-'591?
`
` A. Yes, I did, I believe in January. 11:11:03
`
` Q. Okay. So I've uploaded to the Exhibit
`
` Share or you can use the one in front of you, I
`
` have a copy of Exhibit 2001 previously marked in
`
` this case.
`
` (Previously marked Deposition Exhibit 2001 11:11:18
`

`
` Do you recognize that as your declaration
`
` that you submitted in this case?
`
` A. 2001, yes, that's my declaration.

`
` A. It was a collaboration with the attorneys 11:12:18
`
` at -- at the law firm.
`
` Q. Are there any opinions in this declaration
`
` that you disagree with?
`
` A. Not that I can recall. I think it's my
`
` opinion. 11:12:40
`
` Q. And are all of your opinions in this case
`
` included in this declaration?
`
` A. All -- all of my opinions relative to the
`
` '880 IPR are included in this document.

`
` patent in the case, but these are the ones --
`
` these -- what's in the report is what I -- I wrote 11:13:24
`
` in support of this IPR.
`
` Q. And -- and the other opinions that you're
`
` referring to, why are they not in your
`
` declaration?
`
` A. Because I didn't feel they were necessary. 11:13:35
`
` Q. Okay.
`
` THE COURT REPORTER: Counsel, this is the
`
` court reporter. May we go off the record for an
`

`
` are captured in this document.
`
` BY MR. COOK:
`

`
` Can you turn to page 6 of your

`
` CONSIDERED"?
`
` A. Yes, I see that.
`
` Q. Does this -- is this a list of all the
`
` materials you considered in forming your opinion
`
` in this case? 11:18:55
`
` A. Let me review quickly.
`
` I don't see reference to the prosecution
`
` history, but I did review that as well. Maybe I
`
` left that out.
`
` Q. Okay. 11:19:22
`
` So you reviewed Dr. Hatalis's declaration?
`
` A. Correct.
`
` Q. And you reviewed all of the prior art that
`
` Dr. Ha- -- Dr. Hatalis opined on in his
`
` declaration? 11:19:39

`
` A. I did read it, and I see that it is
`
` public, and it at least is a portion of my
`
` testimony. I don't think it's the entire public
`
` portion.
`
` Q. Is it the entire portion that deals with 11:20:48
`
` the '880 patent?
`
` A. That -- to that I'm not certain. This was
`
` provided to me. I -- I've read it, recognize it.
`
` But I don't know if it's all of the testimony
`
` regarding the '880. 11:21:05
`
` Q. Now, in the ITC trial, you did not testify
`
` regarding validity of the '880 patent; is that
`
` correct?
`
` A. That's correct.
`
` Q. Okay. 11:21:16
`
` I'd like to turn back to your declaration
`
` again for a minute, Exhibit 2001.
`
` A. Okay.
`
` Q. Now, in -- in analyzing the claims of the
`
` '880 patent in the context of this IPR, did you 11:21:33
`
` apply the plain and ordinary meaning to all claim
`
` terms?
`
` A. Yes, I did.
`
` Q. And let's turn to page -- or, sorry,
`
` paragraph 69 of your declaration. 11:21:58

`
` A. Yes, I see the reference to the ITC claim
`
` construction.
`
` Q. Okay. And at paragraph 69, you say, "In
`
` his declaration, Dr. Hatalis assumes that each
`
` term of the '880 patent is to be given its plain 11:22:29
`
` and ordinary meeting. Unless otherwise noted, I
`
` apply the" -- "I apply the claims of the '880
`
` using their plain and ordinary meaning in this
`
` declaration." [As read]
`
` Do you see that? 11:22:43
`
` A. I see that.
`
` Q. Okay. Was there any place in your
`
` declaration that you -- where you noted that you
`
` did not apply -- or you applied some other meaning
`
` other than the plain and ordinary meaning? 11:22:54
`
` A. Not to my recollection. But as I state in
`
` paragraph 71, my opinions would be the same even
`
` if these ALJ constructions that I listed on page
`
` 28 and 29 were applied.
`
` Q. Okay. So in -- the ALJ constructions 11:23:11
`
` you're referring to are the -- are the terms as
`
` construed by the ALJ in the ITC case?
`
` A. Correct.
`
` Q. Okay. And you stated, as you noted in
`
` paragraph 71, that your opinions would also apply 11:23:27

`

`
` Q. Okay. So did you apply the -- ITC's
`
` constructions, or did you apply -- apply plain 11:23:43
`
` meaning?
`
` A. I applied the plain meaning, which I think
`
` lines up well with what the ALJ, you know,
`
` concluded about various terms.
`
` Q. Mm-hmm. 11:23:59
`
` So did you conclude that there was no
`
` difference between plain meaning and the
`
` constructions the ALJ adopted in the related ITC
`
` case?
`
` A. I didn't see any major distinctions 11:24:12
`

`
` So, in other words, for the purposes of 11:25:14
`

`
` of the '880 patent, you've concluded that there's
`
` no appreciable difference between whether --
`
` between applying the plain meaning or applying the
`
` constructions from the ITC case. 11:25:30
`
` Is that a fair statement?
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Okay.
`
` Do you have Exhibit 1001 -- that's the
`
` '880 patent -- there in front of you? It's also 11:25:43

`

`
` Q. And Figure 10 is a schematic
`
` representation of the display panel?
`
` A. The display panel, including various 11:26:24
`
` drivers attached to the panel, depending on how
`
` you define "the panel."
`
` Q. Okay. So Figure 10 includes boxes
`
` representing various functional blocks?
`
` A. Yes. 11:26:44
`
` Q. Like the data driver, for example, the
`
` scanning driver, and so forth?
`
` A. That's correct.
`
` Q. Okay. And Figure 10 also includes symbols
`

`
` Q. Does Figure 10 depict the location of
`
` pixels relative to other structures?
`

`
` is the display circuit attached to various inputs
`
` and outputs -- I should say inputs only, shown by 11:27:31

`
` Q. And -- and does it depict the location of
`
` those pixels relative to other structures? 11:27:50
`
` A. It shows schematically their location.
`
` Q. And what do you mean by "it shows
`
` schematically their location"?
`
` A. It shows a block which, I believe in
`
` the -- in the patent, describes is the circuitry, 11:28:05
`
` for example what's on page 11 -- or Figure 11,
`
` being in the -- the location of various connecting
`
` lines drawn as vertical and horizontal lines on

`
` Q. So Figure 10 shows that the pixels are 11:28:25
`

`
` just mentioned?
`
` A. Yes. And -- and in terms of an electrical
`
` schematic, they are shown connected with a small
`
` black circle. 11:28:45
`

`

`
` dimensions in the patent specifically. 11:29:10
`
` Q. Does -- does -- does Figure 10 indicate
`
` that the pixels are located entirely within the
`
` areas defined by the intersections of the data and
`

`
` A. It -- it doesn't really indicate that. It 11:29:25
`
` shows a set of transistors connected, as I
`
` mentioned, to the various vertical and horizontal
`
` lines.
`
` Q. Do you understand that to be the case even
`
` though it doesn't specifically say that? 11:29:44

`

`

`
` MR. COOK: Sure. I'm sorry.
`
` BY MR. COOK:
`
` Q. Yeah, in -- in that paragraph that starts
`
` at -- at line 40, do you see a reference to 11:30:50
`
` display pixels arranged in vicinities of
`
` intersections of the scanning lines and data
`
` lines?
`
` A. Yes, I see that passage.
`
` Q. How did you interpret the term 11:31:05
`
` "vicinities" in your analysis?
`
` A. I think vicinities, in my analysis, means
`
` in the vicinity of. It means near -- could be
`
` nearby or as -- even as the ALJ suggested,
`
` proximity to those intersections. But, to me, 11:31:28
`
` it's a plain and ordinary meaning.
`
` Q. So vicin- -- and "vicinities of" could
`
` mean near, for example?
`
` A. It -- it could mean near with the
`
` qualification that each -- well, each set of 11:31:40

`
` Q. Okay. And you mentioned the ALJ's 11:32:01
`

`

`
` of display pixels with optical elements arranged
`
` near the intersecting point of the plurality of
`
` signal lines and the plurality of scanning lines;" 11:35:21
`
` Did I read that correctly?
`
` A. Yes, you did. I -- I -- let me see.
`
` Yeah, so this is referring to the optical
`
` elements near the intersections, yes.
`
` Q. And the optical elements are part of the 11:35:40
`
` display pixel?
`
` A. I don't recall actually the -- what
`
` Morosawa defines optical elements. I can't recall
`
` if it's just the organic --
`
` (Interruption in audio/video.) 11:35:58
`
` -- or if it's the transistors that drive
`
` it.
`
` THE COURT REPORTER: Excuse me. I can't
`

`
` light-emitting material only, or it also included
`
` the transistors that drive it.

`
` or line 15 and 16, I guess, it says "a plurality

` of display pixels with optical elements arranged
`
` near the intersecting points"? [As read]
`
` A. Yes.
`
` Q. Is that -- okay. 11:36:31
`
` And how did -- how did you interpret --
`
` did you interpret that sentence to say that only
`
` the optical elements but not the display pixels
`
` are arranged near the intersecting point?
`
` A. As -- as I said, I -- I actually don't 11:36:44
`
` recall precisely if the display pixel definition
`
` in Morosawa includes the transistors that drive
`
` the optical elements or the word "optical
`
` elements" includes the transistors. I'm sure we
`
` could look and find that, but I don't recall. 11:37:02
`

`
` A. Okay.
`
` Q. So line 23 is referring to Figure 16.
`
` A. Okay.
`
` Q. And starting on line 23, Morosawa says,
`
` "As shown in Figure 16, the pixel driver circuits 11:38:08
`
` DCx related to this example case has a
`
` configuration on Nch transistor Tr71, an Nch
`
` transistor Tr72, an Nch transistor Tr73 and a
`
` capacitor Cx. In the pixel driver circuits DCx,
`
` near the intersecting point in which the scanning 11:38:39
`
` lines SL and the signal lines DL are arranged,"
`
` and then it goes on from there.
`
` A. Yes, I see that.
`
` Q. So is that referring to pixel driver
`
` circuits DCx that are near the intersections of 11:38:53
`
` the scanning and data lines?
`
` A. What it's describing schematically on
`
` Figure 16 is -- is the circuit configuration, yes,
`
` and is as schematically drawn near the
`
` intersections of the vertical and horizontal lines 11:39:25
`
` that is shown in Figure 16.
`
` Q. And did you also consider this disclosure
`
` here on page 57 in forming your opinions about
`
` whether Morosawa discloses pixels arranged in the
`
` vicinity of intersections? 11:39:46
