Fully Integrated Devices Simplify Customers’
Design Challenges while Extending Connectivity Range and Enhancing
Product Performance
Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
performance analog semiconductors connecting people, places and
things, today introduced a new family of highly integrated wireless
networking solutions for mobile and Internet of Things (IoT)
ecosystems. The new SkyOne® WiFi suite combines Skyworks’
industry-leading integration expertise and advanced 802.11ac
technology to provide customers with a comprehensive front-end
module in a single placement, compact footprint. Specifically,
these new products incorporate all key radio frequency blocks
between the Wi-Fi system-on-chip (SOC) and the antenna, unburdening
customers of complex RF design challenges, while reducing time to
market. This unique platform significantly improves the Wi-Fi
system performance when compared to other standard SOC platforms
and further mitigates interference with other radios, extending
range and increasing throughput to greatly improve the user
experience. The SKY85812-11, the first in the SkyOne® WiFi series
of products, is currently shipping in flagship platforms globally
with a top tier smartphone OEM.

“Today’s mobile and IoT devices are now supporting up to 20
bands and require both seamless and robust Wi-Fi functionality to
meet growing requirements from carrier offload, voice over IP and
other bandwidth-intensive applications,” said David Stasey, general
manager and vice president of Diversified Analog Solutions at
Skyworks. “Building upon our highly successful SkyOne® cellular
platforms, Skyworks is now pleased to offer Wi-Fi solutions that
deliver optimum levels of integration and performance.”
According to ABI Research, more than 20 billion Wi-Fi chipsets
are expected to be shipped between 2016 and 2021, particularly as
Wi-Fi solutions expand beyond their traditional usage applications,
frequency bands, device types and performance requirements. They
also expect more than 95 percent of devices shipped in 2021 to
support 5 GHz Wi-Fi, signifying increased spectrum sharing with
cellular technologies.
About SkyOne® WiFi
The SKY85812-11 is dual-band front-end module incorporating a 5
GHz bypass low noise amplifier with single-pole, double-throw
transmit/receive switch and a 2.4 GHz bypass low noise amplifier
