RFMD said it secured the design win with the broadband power amplifier (PA), delivering broadband performance and TRP compliance. Based upon current customer forecasts and design activity, RFMD anticipates volume shipments to commence in the fourth quarter of calendar 2008.
According to company officials, RFMD's triple-path 3G PA combines three broadband (multi-band capable) power amplification paths in one size-reduced package. The integrated PA features two high-band broadband amplifiers and one low-band broadband amplifier.
"We're extremely pleased to support this leading OEM with our ground-breaking triple-path, broadband 3G power amplifier," said Eric Creviston, president of RFMD's Cellular Products Group. "Handset designers using our broadband 3G PA can implement a single, scalable 3G platform that services multiple WCDMA bands through simple changes in filter components. No change to the RF layout of the phone board is necessary. As the leading supplier of 3G cellular front ends, RFMD is proud to deliver the industry's most integrated and most capable broadband 3G PA."
"Looking forward, we plan to introduce additional 3G front ends with even greater functionality, higher dollar content and higher levels of integration, as future architectures incorporate duplexers, switches and other functions previously implemented on phone boards discretely."
RFMD also noted that the multi-band, broadband 3G product offerings include the RF6280 3G transmit system, which supports all major WCDMA frequency bands and is comprised of a front end power management IC optimized for use with either one or both of two available power amplifier (PA) options: the RF6281 and/or the RF6285.
