The Semiconductor integrated circuit is an integral part of every computer chip. The main idea behind the Semiconductor Integrated Circuits Layout-Design Act (SICLD), 2000 is to provide protection of Intellectual Property Right (IPR) in the area of Semiconductor Integrated Circuit Layout-Designs and for matters connected therewith or incidental thereto. The Act fulfills the obligations of TRIPS agreement (Art.35 to 38) regarding the protection of semiconductor integrated circuits layout-designs. Therefore, the major provisions contained in the SICLD Act are as follows:
SICLD Act defines the following as:
“Semiconductor Integrated Circuit” means a product having transistors and other circuitry elements, which are inseparably formed on a semiconductor material or an insulating material or of the semiconductor material and designed to perform an electronic circuitry function.
“Layout–Design” means a layout of the transistor and other circuitry elements and includes lead wires connecting such elements and expressed in any manner in a semiconductor integrated circuit.
“Commercial exploitation” in relation to the SLCLD means to sell, lease, offer or exhibit for sale or otherwise distribute such semiconductor integrated circuit for any commercial purpose.
