Samsung Galaxy Express uses Anadigics` InGaP chip
The quad-band GSM/EDGE and dual-band WCDMA/HSPA/LTE MMPA uses Anadigics' patented indium gallium arsenide technology
Anadigics is shipping production volumes of its ALT6181 multimode multiband power amplifier (MMPA) to Samsung Electronics for the new Galaxy Express smartphone.
The Galaxy Express features a 4.5-inch Super AMOLED display, 5 megapixel camera,1.5 GHz processor, and Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich operating system.
Anadigics’ MMPAs use the firm's proprietary InGaP-Plus technology and patented design architectures.
Anadigics says its chip offers high efficiency to extend battery-life, as well as quad-band GSM/EDGE and dual-band WCDMA/LTE functionality in a single package to minimise printed circuit board space requirements.
“We are extremely pleased to have been selected by Samsung for the Galaxy Express,” says Jerry Miller, vice president of Wireless Mobile Products at Anadigics. “Multimode multiband smartphones that provide GSM/EDGE, WCDMA, and LTE functionality represent a growing segment of the wireless market as demand for high speed data continues to increase."
Miller cntinues, "Anadigics is well positioned to capture share in this segment by leveraging our advanced technology and design expertise to provide OEMs and ODMs with highly integrated solutions that help save space, extend battery-life, and reduce time-to-market.”
Anadigics’ ALT6181 MMPA features an integrated voltage regulator, separate single-ended RF chains, and high directivity couplers in a compact 5 mm by 7.5 mm package.
The WCDMA/LTE is designed for bands 1, 5, 6, 18, 19, and 26.
The ALT6181 MMPA provides WCDMA/LTE efficiency across all power levels, without the use of a DC-DC converter.
