A recent report from Strategy Analytics argues that while larger commercial and military microelectronic suppliers may see only modest gains in the first half of 2011, companies such as RF Micro Devices and Skyworks Solutions will continue to find new opportunities for front-end modules in an increasing portfolio of 4G devices.

Skyworks Solutions is expected to benefit from the launch of the iPad 2. Skyworks is adding another chip to its Apple lineup following the three power amplifiers it had in the first iPhone 4.
