Avago Technologies International Sales Pte. Ltd.

Avago Technologies International Sales Pte. Ltd. ("Avago Technologies International Sales," registration no. 200512231E) is a Singapore private limited company incorporated 1 September 2005, with its registered address at 1 Yishun Avenue 7, Singapore 768923. It is a wholly owned subsidiary of Broadcom Inc. (Nasdaq: AVGO), listed among Broadcom's significant subsidiaries in its SEC filings. The Avago name traces to the 2005 semiconductor spin-off from Agilent Technologies, which went public in 2009 as Avago Technologies Limited and acquired Broadcom Corporation in 2016 before renaming the parent Broadcom Inc. in 2018. Broadcom Inc. is a public company with roughly 37,000 employees and fiscal 2024 revenue of approximately $51.6 billion; no separate public headcount or revenue figures are disclosed for this Singapore entity, whose 2021 filing showed share capital of about US$289 million.

Products / operations. This is an operating company, not an NPE. Broadcom's Singapore certification documents describe Avago Technologies International Sales as engaged in design, development, manufacturing and sourcing of semiconductor devices and printed circuit board assemblies, including manufacture of III-V wafers at Singapore sites. As part of Broadcom, its functional scope aligns with Broadcom's product lines: wired infrastructure (Ethernet switching/routing silicon, fiber-optic components), wireless connectivity (RF front-end modules and filters, Wi-Fi/Bluetooth/GPS SoCs), enterprise storage (SAS/RAID controllers, read-channel SoCs), and industrial/analog products (optocouplers, optoelectronics, power-management and III-V analog devices), alongside Broadcom's infrastructure software business.

Litigation posture. Avago Technologies International Sales appears in the tracked data as a plaintiff in one case and as a defendant in none — consistent with an operating-company IP holder asserting patents it owns or co-owns. It is not an NPE. Its single tracked suit was filed in the Northern District of California (Judge James Donato), a venue tied to the parties rather than a plaintiff-friendly NPE forum.

Notable case. In Broadcom Corp. et al. v. Netflix, Inc. (N.D. Cal., 3:20-cv-04677-JD, filed March 2020), Broadcom Corporation and Avago Technologies International Sales sued Netflix over patents covering networking and video-delivery technologies; Avago held substantial rights to several asserted patents, including U.S. 8,259,121 (found ineligible under § 101 at summary judgment in January 2025) and U.S. 7,797,707 and 7,662,663. Netflix later filed retaliatory counterclaims and separate suits against Broadcom entities.
