Company Ships Over 1 Million of Industry’s
First Small Cell Base Station 5G Power Amplifier Differentiated by
Breakthrough Power, Bandwidth and Efficiency Performance
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWKS), an innovator of
high-performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places
and things, today announced a significant milestone with the
shipment of over 1 million of its SKY66318-21 power amplifier (PA),
the industry’s first high efficiency small cell PA with a bandwidth
of 200 MHz at +28 dBm. This achievement highlights Skyworks
accelerating the adoption of 5G by enabling enhanced 5G connections
and powering more efficient range extension for small cells. To
demonstrate the benefits of this exciting new technology, Skyworks
also collaborated with Xilinx, Inc. to showcase the spectral and
power efficiency achievable using the SKY66318-21 PA in 5G
infrastructure applications during the CES 2021 Show.
The demonstration includes Skyworks’ SKY66318-21 high-efficiency
PA, Xilinx’s Crest Factor Reduction (CFR) and Digital
Pre-Distortion IP along with an RF transceiver from Texas
Instruments. Featuring a highly efficient, wide instantaneous
bandwidth, fully input/output matched PA with high gain and
linearity, the SKY66318-21 enables newly auctioned operation in
both the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) and the 5G C-band,
making it well positioned for “carrier sharing” where multiple
operators can take advantage of the opportunity to share the same
equipment. The demonstration may be viewed by visiting the Skyworks
CES virtual booth.
According to a Nov. 2020 report published by Allied Market
Research1, the small cell 5G network industry is expected to reach
$8.32 billion by 2027, registering a compound annual growth rate of
43% from 2020 to 2027. The report also notes that the rise in
network densification, increase in mobile data traffic, advent of
Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) band, and growth in
investment in 5G infrastructure by several economies have driven
the growth of the global small cell 5G network market.
“For emerging 5G environments, it is critical that the PA can
deliver increased efficiency while meeting challenging out-of-band
emissions and EVM requirements,” said Dan Mansur, vice president of
marketing, Wired and Wireless Group at Xilinx. “We are delighted to
collaborate with Skyworks and TI to provide our highly adaptable
CFR and DPD IP which offers a scalable digital front-end solution
to address future RF PA efficiency needs.”
“As 5G is being deployed globally and with the mid-band serving
as the sweet spot thanks to its speed, capacity and range, the
SKY66318-21 is a robust addition to Skyworks’ broad portfolio of
complete connectivity solutions,” said David Stasey, vice president
and general manager of diversified analog solutions for Skyworks.
“Regardless of band, Skyworks is poised to meet the need for
densification in the rapidly expanding small cell market.”
The SKY66318-21 PA has a compact design, making it ideal for 5G
NR and 4G LTE systems operating from 3300 to 3700 MHz. Active
biasing circuitry is integrated to compensate for temperature,
voltage, and process variation. The SKY66318-21 is part of a
high-efficiency, pin-to-pin compatible PA family supporting major
3GPP bands.
