Judge Affirms Broadcom Ruling

A federal judge affirmed last week a jury’s May verdict that Qualcomm Inc. infringed on Broadcom Corp. patents.

Broadcom said it would accept the $19.6 million originally awarded by the jury, avoiding a new trail. The judge had removed an award for double the damages.

Broadcom also said it would seek an injunction preventing Qualcomm making, selling or using the chips that infringe on the company’s patent. Those include third-generation WCDMA and EV-DO cellular chips.
