SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION: On August 17, 2023, the Commission
instituted this investigation under section 337 of the Tariff Act of
1930, as amended, 19 U.S.C. 1337 (``section 337''), based on a
complaint filed by Vicor Corporation of Andover, Massachusetts. See 88
FR 56050-51 (Aug. 17, 2023). The complaint, as supplemented, alleges a
violation of section 337 based upon the importation into the United
States, the sale for importation, and the sale within the United States
after importation of certain power converter modules and computing
systems containing the same by reason of the infringement of certain
claims of U.S. Patent Nos. 9,166,481; 9,516,761; and 10,199,950. See
id. The notice of investigation names the following respondents: Delta
Electronics, Inc. of Taipei, Taiwan; Delta Electronics (Americas) Ltd.
of Fremont, California; Delta Electronics (USA) Inc. of Plano, Texas;
Cyntec Co., Ltd. of Hsinchu, Taiwan; Quanta Computer Inc. and Quanta
Cloud Technology Inc., both of Taoyuan City, Taiwan; Quanta Cloud
Technology USA LLC of San Jose, California; Quanta Computer USA Inc. of
Fremont, California; Hon Hai Precision Industry Co. Ltd. (d/b/a,
Foxconn Technology Group) of Taipei City, Taiwan; Foxconn Industrial
internet Co. Ltd. of Shenzhen, China; FII USA Inc. (a/k/a Foxconn
Industrial, internet USA Inc.) of Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Ingrasys
Technology Inc. of Taoyuan City, Taiwan; and Ingrasys Technology USA
Inc. of Fremont, California. See id. The Office of Unfair Import
Investigations is also a party to the investigation. See id.
On December 21, 2023, Complainant filed an unopposed motion to
amend the complaint and notice of investigation to add DET as a
respondent. No response to the motion was received.
On January 2, 2024, the ALJ issued the subject ID (Order No. 18)
granting the motion. The ID finds that, under Commission Rule
210.14(b), 19 CFR 210.14(b), ``good cause exists to allow the proposed
amendment'' because ``Vicor was able to identify DET's role in the
supply chain . . . only after having received confidential information
from the Delta Respondents during discovery.'' See ID at 2. In
addition, the ID finds that ``[t]he proposed amendment . . . will not
prejudice the public interest or the rights of the parties to this
investigation.'' See id.
No petition for review of the subject ID was filed.
[[Page 6547]]
The Commission has determined not to review the subject ID. The
complaint and notice of investigation are amended to add DET as a
respondent.
The Commission vote for this determination took place on January
26, 2024.
The authority for the Commission's determination is contained in
section 337 of the Tariff Act of 1930, as amended (19 U.S.C. 1337), and
in part 210 of the Commission's Rules of Practice and Procedure (19 CFR
part 210).
By order of the Commission.
Issued: January 29, 2024.
Lisa Barton,
Secretary to the Commission.
