Skyworks wins Mobile Breakthrough Awards

Skyworks Solutions Inc of Woburn, MA, USA (which manufactures analog and mixed-signal semiconductors) says that several of its solutions have received top honors in the 2018 Mobile Breakthrough Awards. Mobile Breakthrough recognizes the world’s best mobile and wireless companies, products and people based on selections from an independent panel of experts within the wireless industry. Skyworks has been selected from among over 2200 nominations for developing leading-edge technology.

Skyworks’ family of GNSS low-noise amplifier (LNA) front-end modules, which were named ‘GPS-based Solutions of the Year’, provide global manufacturers with a compact, turnkey connectivity option for Internet of Things (IoT) applications such as smartwatches, action cameras, drones, asset trackers and personal navigation devices.

The firm’s family of small cell power amplifiers (PAs), which received the ‘Small Cell Technology Innovation of the Year’ award, transmit high power while consuming less power, Skyworks says. By minimizing heat, the devices make it possible to have multiple bands in one box to drive down operating costs — a critical factor that makes the PAs an enabler of small-cell deployment for next-generation networks, the firm adds.
