ANADIGICS Shipping Production Volumes of Dual-Band CDMA Power Amplifiers to LG Electronics for Next-Generation CDMA Handsets
WARREN, N.J., June 26 - ANADIGICS, Inc. (NASDAQ:ANAD), a leading supplier of wireless and broadband solutions, today announced that the Company is shipping production volumes of dual-band indium gallium phosphide (InGaP) heterojunction bipolar transistor (HBT) power amplifiers (PAs) to LG Electronics. LG Electronics has selected ANADIGICS' dual-band CDMA PAs for several CDMA handsets, including the recently introduced VX8300. ANADIGICS' low profile dual-band CDMA PAs feature independent RF paths to ensure optimal performance in both AMPS/cellular and PCS frequency bands, while achieving a 25% space savings compared with solutions requiring two single-band PAs.
"ANADIGICS is proud of its long-term relationship with LG Electronics and is delighted to be a part of LG's EV-DO success story," said Dr. Ali Khatibzadeh, Senior Vice President and General Manager of Wireless Products at ANADIGICS. "Our dual-band CDMA power amplifiers offer a stellar combination of high performance, small footprint, and low profile, making them ideal for today's popular ultra-thin handsets. We look forward to supporting LG on its new CDMA mobile designs."
ANADIGICS' AWT6310 and AWT6314 dual-band CDMA PA modules feature 39% efficiency and 50 mA of quiescent current to provide excellent talk-time and standby-time. The PA modules deliver 27 dB gain in the cellular band and 26.5 dB gain in the PCS band, and offer an impressive typical adjacent channel power of approximately -50 dBc in both bands to provide a high quality wireless connection for voice and data applications. These PAs offer a common VMODE line to simplify the control interface and support single-mode operation up to full antenna power. The 3 mm by 5 mm by 1 mm dual-band power amplifiers are manufactured using a material set consistent with the European Union's Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS).
