Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ:SWKS), an innovator of high
reliability analog and mixed signal semiconductors enabling a broad
range of end markets, today announced that it has introduced a
family of antenna switch modules (ASMs) for 2/3/4G handset and data
card platforms using both gallium arsenide (GaAs) as well as
silicon on insulator (SOI) technologies. Skyworks products address
the three primary switching functions: main antenna, diversity, and
band/mode.
These compact solutions deliver state-of-the-art technology to
meet both high performance and low-cost architectures, depending
upon the interface requirements. By delivering a comprehensive RF
switch portfolio based on both technologies, Skyworks is able to
augment its already broad portfolio of world-class switches
currently used in the company’s front-end modules.
“Skyworks is pleased to be supporting such a broad range of
next-generation wireless broadband and mobile handset applications
with our new family of antenna switch modules,” said Dr. Gene A.
Tkachenko, Skyworks’ senior director of engineering. “These
solutions highlight the breadth and depth of our technology as we
look to best serve our customers’ needs on multiple fronts and with
highly integrated architectures.”
About Skyworks’ 4G GaAs pHEMT and SOI Antenna Switch
Modules
- The SKY13362 is a single-pole
ten-throw (SP10T) ASM with an integrated complementary metal oxide
semiconductor (CMOS) decoder and dual low pass harmonic filters.
The small 3.0 x 3.8 mm switch has five 3/4G transmit-receive (TRx)
ports, three receive (Rx) ports, and two global system for mobile
communications (GSM) transmit signal low-pass harmonic filters that
make it the flexible choice for multiple combinations of 2/3/4G
multimode cellular applications. Using advanced switch
technologies, the ASM maintains low insertion loss and high
isolation on both transmit, transmit-receive and receive switching
paths. Additionally, the switch was designed to meet or exceed
system requirements for 2nd and 3rd harmonics into an antenna
mismatch up to 5:1, while delivering linearity (excellent triple
beat ratio), and second and third order (IP2, IP3) intermodulation
distortion performance to provide manufacturers with sufficient
margin in the certification process.
- The SKY14152 is a low-cost,
single-pole eight-throw (SP8T) ASM for use in multimode embedded
data cards. The compact 3.2 x 3.2 mm device is designed for
universal mobile telecommunications system (UMTS), code division
multiple access (CDMA2000), enhanced data for GSM evolution (EDGE),
and GSM applications and supports flexibility with up to five 3/4G
TRx bands. The device consists of an SP8T switch, GSM transmit
signal low-pass harmonic filters, and a RX SAW filter.
- The SKY14153 is a low-cost,
single-pole four-throw (SP4T) switch designed for wideband code
division multiple access (WCDMA) and diversity switching
applications that demand high linearity and low-insertion loss. The
compact 2.0 x 2.0 mm switch is optimized for third generation
partnership project (3GPP) 3/4G bands from 0.70 to 2.7 gigahertz
(GHz).
- The SKY14155 is a low cost,
double-pole four-throw (DP4T) switch designed for broadband, 3/4G
band switching applications which demand low insertion loss, high
isolation, and high linearity. The compact 2.0 x 2.0 mm switch is
manufactured using a state-of-the-art SOI process, and is optimized
for 3G WCDMA mode/band switching applications.
- The SKY18106 is a SP8T ASM
designed for multimode, high power switching applications that
demand low harmonics and insertion loss. The 3.2 x 4 mm switch is
optimized for both 2G GSM/EDGE and 3G WCDMA applications and
supports up to six 3/4G TRx ports with very low insertion loss,
high isolation and excellent linearity under antenna mismatch
conditions.
The newly introduced switch, ASM and FEM devices rely on
state-of-the-art pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor
(pHEMT), SOI, integrated passive device (IPD), and wafer-level
chip-scale package (WL-CSP) SAW technologies. No external blocking
capacitors are required on any of the RF ports for all of these
devices – thus minimizing customers’ bill of materials and occupied
board space.
