Samsung, in response to the lawsuit that Nvidia filed against the Korean company back in September, accused Nvidia for infringement on several patents related to semiconductors and for stating false information regarding Samsung's products.

Samsung filed the lawsuit that contained the allegation on Monday, with the company seeking damages for intentional infringement on several of the company's technical patents.

The patents include a few ones on the process of buffering and using data for semiconductors.

Samsung also alleges that Nvidia is guilty of false advertising, as it is stating that the mobile processor that its Shield tablet is using, the Tegra, is the fastest in the world.

According to Samsung, researchers from Primate Labs that conducted benchmarking studies reveal that Nvidia's claims are false.

Samsung's lawsuit comes after Nvidia alleged that Samsung and Qualcomm, a rival company in the mobile chip industry, are guilty of patent infringements on Nvidia's GPU, or graphics processing unit.

Nvidia is looking for a ban on several devices by Samsung that feature the Adreno GPU series by Qualcomm or Samsung's Exynos mobile processors. The devices that Nvidia is seeking a ban for include several ones in the company's Galaxy product line, such as the new Galaxy Note 4 and the Galaxy Note Edge. Also affected are the company's flagship Galaxy smartphones, from S3 to S5.

David Shannon, the chief administrative officer for Nvidia, wrote in a blog post that the company had held several but unproductive meeting with representatives of Samsung for the negotiation of a license fee, as the company has been using Nvidia's GPU patents since 2012.

Samsung, however, has repeatedly said that the issue was a problem of their supplier, and not of the company.

A report in October revealed that the U.S. International Trade Commission will be investigating Nvidia's patent infringement complaint on Samsung and Qualcomm.

If the ITC gathers enough evidence to support the claims by Nvidia, the potential damages that Samsung and Qualcomm will have to pay to Nvidia would be enormous, as the infringements appear on hundreds of millions of Samsung devices.

Nvidia said in a statement that the company will be reviewing the claims that Samsung filed against the company, and that it will be responding in due time.

Nvidia added that it is looking forward to presenting the company's case on the unlicensed usage of the GPU patents of the company to the ITC.

Nvidia also referred to another benchmarking study that supports the company's claims that its Tegra mobile processor is the fastest one currently on the market.
