Photo Release -- ANADIGICS Launches Three New Small-Cell Wireless Infrastructure Power Amplifiers
September 21 2015 - 7:46PM
ANADIGICS, Inc. (Nasdaq:ANAD) ("ANADIGICS" or the "Company"), a
world leader in radio frequency (RF) solutions, today introduced
three new power amplifiers (PAs) optimized for 3G and 4G small-cell
applications, including picocells, enterprise-class femtocells, and
high-performance customer premises equipment (CPE). Service
providers are expected to increasingly leverage small-cell
equipment to improve network capacity and data speeds in densely
populated areas. This is exemplified by a recent presentation at
LTE World Summit 2015 by Vodafone Netherlands, which discussed
planned expansion of its small-cell network and the superior
customer experience that it provides.

The AWB7133, AWB7137, and AWB7238 power amplifiers operate in
the 2496 MHz to 2690 MHz, 758 MHz to 803 MHz, and 791 MHz to 821
MHz frequency band, respectively, delivering a world-class
combination of efficiency, linearity, output power, and thermal
characteristics. This level of performance enables manufacturers to
develop wireless infrastructure solutions that consume less power
and provide higher throughput with greater coverage.
"ANADIGICS continues to expand its industry-leading small-cell
power amplifier family to address the most popular WCDMA, LTE FDD
and TD-LTE frequency bands," said Charles Armour, senior director
of business development for Wireless Infrastructure Products at
ANADIGICS. "As wireless data consumption continues to break
records, our power amplifiers enable the design of high throughput,
reliable, and compact small-cell base stations. These solutions
enable service providers to economically and pragmatically expand
broadband network capacity and coverage."
ANADIGICS' complete family of small-cell wireless infrastructure
power amplifiers leverages the Company's unique InGaP-Plus™
technology and innovative design architectures to deliver
industry-leading performance and integration. The AWB7133 and
AWB7137 power amplifier devices deliver better than 15% efficiency,
28 dB gain, and -47 dBc ACPR @ +24.5 dBm of linear output power.
The AWB7238 power amplifier features 13.5% efficiency, 30 dB gain,
and -47 dBc ACPR @ +27 dBm linear output power. These power
amplifiers are available in the same compact, low-profile 7 mm x 7
mm x 1.3 mm surface mount package used across the entire AWB71XX
and AWB72XX product lines, allowing the same PCB layout to be used
for different bands and power levels. ANADIGICS' small-cell
power amplifiers offer integrated bias, which eliminates the need
for complicated external circuitry and reduces PCB space
requirements.
