Ultra Compact Power Amplifiers Enable Tri-Band World Phone - One-Third the Size of a U.S. Dollar Bill and Weighing Only 2.5 Ounces Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWKS), an industry leader in radio solutions and precision analog semiconductors, today announced that its ultra-compact power amplifiers (PAs) are supporting Cingular's tri-band GSM/GPRS Pantech C300 multimedia messaging handset - the world's smallest camera flip phone available today which weighs in at just 2.5 ounces - one-third the size of a U.S. dollar bill. Available through Cingular GoPhone(R), the Pantech C300 features bright, large font color screens, a video graphics array (VGA) camera with flash and zoom in liquid crystal display (LCD) mode, multimedia messaging for photos, text and sound, customizable real MP3, MIDI and i-Melody music ringtones, Yahoo!(R) mobile instant messaging, high-speed data transmission availability using GPRS, 10 megabytes (MB) of usable memory for storage and e-mail - specifications typically included in a handset at least twice its size. "Skyworks is delighted to be delivering technology that is enabling Pantech to offer Cingular and ultimately consumers breakthrough cellular handset designs such as the revolutionary C300," said Brian M. Daly, vice president of marketing for Mobile Platforms at Skyworks. "Our power amplifiers provide the required functionality and exceptionally small form factor for designing compelling ultra-thin phones that appeal to consumers of all ages around the world." Given that more digital cameras are sold as part of cellular phones versus on a standalone basis, handset manufacturers are increasingly focused on form factor, battery life and system cost to be able to accommodate such multimedia features. As such, Skyworks' suite of PAs and front-end modules (FEMs) are tailored to support extremely compact, power-efficient and low-cost applications.
