Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (NASDAQ: SWKS), an innovator of high
performance analog semiconductors enabling a broad range of end
markets, today unveiled a portfolio of low noise amplifiers (LNAs)
that provide best-in-class noise figure, a critical component to
boosting weak incoming signals for today’s 4G wireless
infrastructure as well as diverse broad market systems including
GPS, broadband, military and satellite communications. OEMs can now
leverage a single Skyworks LNA to address all cellular, ISM and
military bands, enabling unconditional stability and simple band
specific external matching across a wide voltage range.
“Skyworks’ newest LNAs are achieving unprecedented performance
levels, while enabling a multitude of high performance base
station, cellular repeater and remote radio head platforms,” said
David Stasey, vice president and general manager of analog
solutions at Skyworks. “Leveraging our analog design expertise, IP
and scale, Skyworks is delivering highly differentiated solutions
and creating competitive advantages for our customers.”
About Skyworks’ Ultra Low Noise Figure Amplifiers
The SKY67151-396LF is a high performance gallium arsenide,
pseudomorphic high electron mobility transistor LNA with integrated
active bias and very low noise figure (as low as 0.25 dB). The
advanced 0.25um enhancement mode process provides broadband return
loss, high gain, very low noise and high amplifier linearity. The
internal active bias circuitry provides stable performance over
temperature and process variation. The device allows users to
externally adjust supply current to optimize linearity and provides
best-in-class noise figure.
The new LNA operates over the broad frequency range of 0.7 to
3.8 GHz. Four band-specific external tuning networks with common
printed circuit board layouts are available to cover the full 3,000
megahertz bandwidth. This device is ideally suited for both macro
and micro cellular base stations, repeaters, remote radio heads,
tower mounted amplifiers, L&S band military communication,
global positioning transceivers and proprietary radio networks. The
LNA is manufactured in a compact 2 x 2 millimeter, 8-pin, dual flat
no-lead Skyworks Green package and four band specific evaluation
boards are available for customer testing.
Pricing and Availability
Skyworks’ new LNAs are currently available for both sampling and
production. For volume pricing, please contact

These risks, uncertainties and other important factors include,
but are not limited to: uncertainty regarding global economic and
financial market conditions; the susceptibility of the
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; the
availability and pricing of third party semiconductor foundry,
assembly and test capacity, raw materials and supplier components;
changes in laws, regulations and/or policies, including the
possibility of expiring tax cuts combined with mandatory reductions
in federal spending, in the United States that could adversely
affect either (i) the economy and our customers’ demand for our
products or (ii) the 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; 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

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
risks and uncertainties, including, but not limited to, those
detailed from time to time in our filings with the Securities and
