TriQuint set to deliver record-efficiency PAs
The Portland, Oregon, based RF semiconductor company will imminently start addressing strong demand for its HV-HBT cellular base station amplifiers.
TriQuint Semiconductor is to start commercial production early in 2009 on GaAs amplifier products that have recently claimed a cellular base station efficiency record.
Low-volume initial production will begin on high-voltage HBT (HV-HBT) devices and ramp into 2010 in response to a strong interest in the technology's power-saving potential.
“I ve got more customers coming to me asking for samples, data and evaluation boards than I can possibly deal with today,” Doug Slansky, TriQuint s base-station product marketing manager, told compoundsemiconductor.net.
