This Federal Circuit opinion details a long-standing legal battle between AMS-OSRAM and Renesas regarding misappropriated trade secrets for ambient-light sensor technology used in electronics. The court reviews appeals from both parties concerning monetary awards for trade secret misappropriation and breach of a confidentiality agreement. While the court adjusts the date when the trade secret was considered publicly accessible, it largely upholds the district court's rulings on damages, including disgorgement of profits and exemplary damages. However, the court identifies errors in the calculation of prejudgment interest and remands that specific issue for further consideration.
