Company patents
SiTime Corporation
SiTime Corporation's patent strategy is heavily concentrated in Impedance Networks (Filters, Resonators), representing 50.0% of its portfolio, which saw a 30.0% YoY growth in 2025 before a sharp decline so far in 2026. Despite this core focus, the company appears to be shifting priorities, with significant declines in patenting across most other categories, including a 100.0% YoY drop in Inorganic Devices (Thermoelectric, Piezo) and Semiconductor Packaging & Encapsulation so far in 2026.
