Samsung storage business faces patent infringement challenges in the US

Netlist has filed lawsuits with the U.S. International Trade Commission and the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Texas, accusing the South Korean company’s high-bandwidth memory and DDR5 products of alleged patent infringement. Driven by surging demand for AI infrastructure, Samsung’s storage business profits have performed impressively, but this new lawsuit may bring operational pressure to the company. Netlist alleges that Samsung's high-bandwidth memory products, DDR5 RDIMM, and MRDIMM infringe U.S. Patent Nos. 12,646,537 and 12,650,937.
