Adeia filed a lawsuit against AMD in November, which claimed the CPU and GPU maker used its IP in the creation of its chips. The litigation covered 10 of Adeia’s patents, which Adeia claimed led to AMD’s success in the semiconductor space. Adeia had also claimed that it sought to reach a resolution without a lawsuit, but was unsuccessful in that endeavor.

Paul E. Davis, CEO of Adeia, said, “We are pleased to reach this agreement with AMD, a global leader in high-performance computing and advanced semiconductor solutions. Resolving our disputes allows both companies to move forward and creates an opportunity for exploring future collaborations on advanced semiconductor technologies.”
