Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWKS), a global leader in analog,
mixed signal and digital semiconductors for mobile communications
applications, today announced that it has commenced volume
production of its Helios(TM) Mini EDGE radio solution for Samsung,
one of the world's leading handset original equipment manufacturers
(OEMs). Helios(TM) Mini is supporting several of Samsung's
bandwidth-intensive, advanced multimedia platforms slated for
market release early next year. Skyworks' compact, two-chip radio
frequency (RF) subsystem combines the company's industry-leading
front end module (FEM) together with its patented and field-proven
single-chip direct conversion transceiver (DCR), significantly
reducing customers' bill of materials and board space requirements,
while improving performance. "We are delighted to be supporting
Samsung with our highly integrated radio solution, particularly as
they ramp production of their EDGE handsets," said Brian M. Daly,
vice president of marketing for Mobile Platforms at Skyworks.
"Skyworks' Helios(TM) radio platform is proving to be the
architecture of choice, with several tier-one handset OEMs
incorporating this design. Our technology strategy and roadmap,
which pushes the levels of integration and performance, continue to
be validated by leading customers." About Helios(TM) Mini
Helios(TM) Mini is a complete radio solution for GSM, GPRS and EDGE
mobile handset applications that builds on the advantages of
Skyworks' first generation Helios(TM) product, which contains three
chips. It features the company's industry-leading, patent-pending
Polar Loop transmit modulation technology, allowing the radio to
transmit both constant as well as non-constant envelope signals
through the same transmit path. This approach minimizes the number
of external components that are required, and improves talk times
by as much as 10 percent by increasing power amplifier (PA)
efficiency in EDGE mode as compared to conventional architectures.
Helios(TM) Mini also includes the company's latest single-chip DCR,
which works with the subsystem's PA/PAC to create a seamless
closed-loop transmit system. Skyworks is a proven leader in pairing
FEM technology with radio functionality, enabling the development
of handsets containing advanced features such as color displays,
integrated digital cameras, Web browsing and multimedia messaging
services (MMSs). About Skyworks Skyworks Solutions, Inc. is a
