HTC and Samsung opt for Skyworks’ SkyOne front-end solution

Analog semiconductor maker Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA says that HTC and Samsung are ramping Skyworks’ SkyOne, a highly customizable, fully optimized front-end solution, in several of their recent smartphone launches. The SkyOne platform integrates all RF and analog content between the transceiver and antenna.

Utilizing Skyworks’ full technology portfolio and advanced multichip module capabilities including proprietary shielding and packaging, SkyOne is the first semiconductor device to condense multiband power amplifiers and high throw switches along with all associated filtering, duplexing and control functionality into a single, ultra-compact package, while at the same time providing the world’s best linearity and power added efficiency for smart RF integration, says the firm.

“Skyworks is pleased that HTC, Samsung and other mobile device manufacturers are leveraging the benefits offered by our family of SkyOne solutions,” says Brad Byk, senior VP, worldwide sales at Skyworks. “SkyOne offers smartphone, tablet and ultrabook OEMs improved size, flexibility, and time to market - all in an easy to implement and scalable platform that addresses the dramatic increase in bands worldwide.”
