ZTE honours Skyworks
Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA (which manufactures high-reliability analog and mixed-signal semiconductors) has received the Best Vendor and Outstanding Delivery awards from ZTE. Skyworks has supported ZTE’s RF business without a single part shortage in the last three years, and is now ZTE’s leading front-end solution supplier.
“Congratulations once again to the Skyworks team for their support and flexibility in meeting our needs in this demanding and dynamic mobile phone industry,” said management at ZTE. “With Skyworks support, we have been able to connect our customers in 140 countries via voice, data, multimedia and wireless networking solutions.”
“Skyworks is delighted to add these two new honors to our 2011 Global Partnership Award from ZTE,” said Bradley C. Byk, senior vice president of worldwide sales at Skyworks. “We are proud to be part of ZTE’s success and are committed to meeting our customers’ needs with the highest quality solutions.”
ZTE utilizes a variety of Skyworks’ products, including WCDMA/LTE and EDGE front-end solutions for USB modems, data cards, TD-SCDMA and CDMA products for handsets, as well as antenna switch modules for several smartphone platforms.
Skyworks is also supporting the launch of ZTE’s Grand X LTE smartphone, with a multimode, multiband front-end solution. With this device, ZTE is the first mainland China vendor to introduce a 4G LTE mobile handset, says Skyworks.
