BiSS Interface License Agreements

The BiSS Interface protocol is developed 2002 by iC-Haus GmbH and introduced as an Open source Interface; the registered trademark and label BiSS and the Source Codes of IPs are licensed in different ways:

• BiSS Interface license for BiSS device manufacturers (BDM)
• BiSS Interface license for IC manufacturers (BICM)

Notes:
No BiSS Interface license is required for applications using integrated circuits with embedded BiSS Interface from a licensed manufacturer.

Patent Issues:
There are independent expertises available drawing a clear dividing line between BiSS protocols and other interface techniques especially in position measurements systems. On 18.06.2009 the German Regional Court (Landgericht Düsseldorf) dismisses the law suits which had been filed against BiSS B upon EP0790489 B1 and DE19701310 B4 regarding mode commutation. This judgement may be verified by legal remedy. We shall update the latest status also on request.
