Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
reliability analog and mixed signal semiconductors enabling a broad
range of end markets, today introduced a new suite of low noise
amplifiers (LNAs) featuring pseudomorphic high electron mobility
transistor (pHEMT) and silicon germanium (SiGe) technologies. The
new high performing, low cost product family serves various
industry applications including GPS; infrastructure such as GSM,
WCDMA and LTE base station transceivers; ISM band and satellite
radio; and WLAN markets. In addition, Skyworks is expanding into
higher frequency, higher linearity, and even lower noise figures
with the company�s latest pHEMT7 technology and enhancement mode
pHEMT devices.
�This is an exciting development for Skyworks, and opens up an
entirely new product line and market,� said David C. Stasey,
Skyworks� vice president of analog components. �Skyworks has
uniquely designed these discrete pHEMT devices to achieve ultra low
noise that supports the high performance requirements for modern
receiver designs. We are also utilizing SiGe technology to produce
integrated LNA devices. These new devices address low cost and
efficiency while providing the added functionality of silicon. With
the addition of these new LNA devices, our GPS, infrastructure,
ISM, satellite and WLAN customers are thrilled with our new
offerings.�
About the SKY65050-372LF Low Noise Transistor
The SKY65050-372LF low noise transistor, the first released
product in this family, is a high performance, low noise,
n-channel, depletion mode pHEMT, fabricated from Skyworks� advanced
pHEMT process and packaged in a miniature 4-lead SC-70 package. The
transistor�s low noise figure, high gain, and excellent third order
intercept (IP3) allows it to be used in various receiver and
transmitter applications.
The transistor is lead (Pb)-free, restriction of hazardous
substances (RoHS) compliant, conforms to the environmental impact
assessment (EIA)/European information and communications technology
industry association (EICTA)/Japan electronics and information
technology industries association (JEITA) joint industry guide
(JIG) Level A guidelines, and is free from antimony trioxide and
brominated flame retardants.
This new product has been released with a full toolkit of
application resources to assist in securing new sockets. In
addition, the new device will allow for higher gain and linearity
while still providing noise figure solutions below 0.7 decibels
(dB).
Pricing and Availability
The SKY65050-372LF is available now and priced at 25 cents each
in quantities of 10,000 devices. For more information, please

unprecedented uncertainty regarding global economic and financial
market conditions; the susceptibility of the wireless semiconductor
industry and the markets addressed by our, and our customers',
products to economic downturns; the timing, rescheduling or
cancellation of significant customer orders and our ability, as
well as the ability of our customers, to manage inventory; losses
or curtailments of purchases or payments from key customers, or the
timing of customer inventory adjustments; changes in laws,
regulations and/or policies in the United States that could
adversely affect financial markets and our ability to raise
capital; our ability to develop, manufacture and market innovative
products in a highly price competitive and rapidly changing
technological environment; economic, social and political
conditions in the countries in which we, our customers or our
suppliers operate, including security and health risks, possible
disruptions in transportation networks and fluctuations in foreign
currency exchange rates; fluctuations in our manufacturing yields
due to our complex and specialized manufacturing processes; delays
or disruptions in production due to equipment maintenance, repairs
and/or upgrades; our reliance on several key customers for a large
percentage of our sales; fluctuations in the manufacturing yields
of our third party semiconductor foundries and other problems or
delays in the fabrication, assembly, testing or delivery of our
products; the availability and pricing of third party semiconductor
foundry, assembly and test capacity and raw materials; our ability
to timely and accurately predict market requirements and evolving
industry standards, and to identify opportunities in new markets;
uncertainties of litigation, including potential disputes over
intellectual property infringement and rights, as well as payments
related to the licensing and/or sale of such rights; our ability to
rapidly develop new products and avoid product obsolescence; our
ability to retain, recruit and hire key executives, technical
personnel and other employees in the positions and numbers, with
the experience and capabilities, and at the compensation levels
needed to implement our business and product plans; lengthy product
development cycles that impact the timing of new product
introductions; unfavorable changes in product mix; the quality of
our products and any remediation costs; shorter than expected
product life cycles; problems or delays that we may face in
shifting our products to smaller geometry process technologies and
in achieving higher levels of design integration; and our ability
to continue to grow and maintain an intellectual property portfolio
and obtain needed licenses from third parties, as well as other
