Lastly, we agree with Appellants that the Examiner errs in finding that, other than “receiving an encryption key,” the disputed limitation is an intended use, which does not have patentable weight. To the contrary, “to be used for encrypting and decrypting transaction data over a second communication channel . . . [which uses] a cellular communications network” is a fundamental characteristic of the claimed invention and relates to claim 1’s other limitations. See Vizio, Inc. v. Int’l Trade Comm’n, 605 F.3d 1330, 1340 (Fed. Cir. 2010) (“[C]onclud[ing] that . . . ‘for decoding’ . . . is properly construed as a claim limitation, and not merely a statement of purpose or intended use for the invention, because ‘decoding’ is the essence or a fundamental characteristic of the claimed invention.”); In re Jasinski, 508 F. App’x 950, 952 (Fed. Cir. 2013) (finding claim language that provided criteria to analyze other limitations limiting, rather than an intended use); App. Br. 22 (claim 1 further reciting “receiving encrypted data . . . through the second communication channel” and “decrypting the encrypted data . . . using the encryption key”). Accordingly, we find that the Examiner errs in finding that the disputed limitation recites an intended use.

An amendment to correct an obvious error does not constitute new matter where one skilled in the art would not only recognize the existence of the error in the specification but would also recognize the appropriate correction. In re Oda, 443 F.2d 1200 (CCPA 1971).

Thus the language is properly construed to functionally limit the shape point rather than merely describe an intended use. Cf. Vizio, Inc. v. Int'l Trade Comm'n, 605 F.3d 1330, 1341 (Fed. Cir. 2010) ("[T]he 'for decoding' language ... is properly construed as a limitation, and not merely a statement of purpose or intended use for the invention, because 'decoding' is the essence or a fundamental characteristic of the claimed invention.").

We also disagree with the Examiner’s treatment of the claimed functional language for the analyzing unit as merely an intended use that “does not differentiate the claimed apparatus from a prior art apparatus satisfying the claimed structural limitations” (Ans. 6). We consider the claimed “analyzing unit” to be akin to a processor programmed to perform the particular function of determining the direction of the capsule. When the functional language of a claim is associated with programming or some other structure required to perform the function, that programming or structure must be present in order to meet the claim limitation. See Typhoon Touch Techs., Inc. v. Dell, Inc., 659 F.3d 1376, 1380 (Fed. Cir. 2011); see also Vizio, Inc. v. Int'l Trade Comm’n, 605 F.3d 1330, 1341 (Fed.
