Addresses Carrier Aggregation Challenges via a
Cost Optimized Platform; OPPO Leveraging SkyLiTE™ 2.0 in Upcoming
Smartphone Launches
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places and
things, today unveiled SkyLiTE™ 2.0, its next generation front-end
solution powering LTE devices. This highly integrated platform
provides smartphone manufacturers with a complete front-end system
that meets today’s carrier aggregation (CA) design challenges.
Building upon Skyworks’ successful first generation solution, the
devices are baseband agnostic and incorporate amplification,
switching, Wi-Fi filtering, and coupler functionality required to
support all major FDD/TDD bands. SkyLiTE™ 2.0 addresses new global
downlink CA performance standards with integrated diplexer and
harmonic filtering functionality and is optimized for regional use,
providing OEMs with scalable and reconfigurable architectures for
faster time to market. OPPO, a global electronics and technology
leader in China, is the first OEM to leverage the new SkyLiTE™ 2.0
in support of smartphones slated for launch later this month.
