GaN Panel featuring experts from Freescale, MACOM, Qorvo and Empower RF
The panelists will discuss the attributes of GaN for RF applications including wireless, automotive, multimedia and communications, covering the semiconductors strengths and weaknesses for addressing specific applications compared to other existing technologies and its outlook for development and adoption in new application targeting higher frequency green-field initiatives.
Qorvo is adding new high-speed products for long haul, metro, and data center applications to deliver new multi-channel and low power consumption options that reduce cost, enable market leading channel to channel isolation while shrinking product form factor, and maximize integration and signal fidelity for network equipment manufacturers.
M/A-COM Technology Solutions Inc. (“MACOM”), a leading supplier of high-performance analog RF, microwave and optical semiconductor products, announced the new MAGX-000912-650L00 and MAGX-000912-650L0S, a 650 W gallium nitride (GaN) on silicon carbide (SiC) HEMT pulsed power transistor for L-band pulsed avionics applications.
Microsemi Corp. a leading provider of semiconductor solutions differentiated by power, security, reliability and performance, and Vitesse Semiconductor Corp., jointly announced that Microsemi has entered into a definitive agreement to acquire Vitesse for $5.28 per share through a cash tender offer, representing a premium of 32 percent based on the average closing price of Vitesse's shares of common stock during the 30 trading days ended March 17, 2015.
RFMW Ltd. announces design and sales support for the TGA3504-SM, 2 to 30GHz Gain Block from TriQuint (Qorvo). The TGA3504-SM offers 8 dBm of output P1 dB with a corresponding small signal gain of up to 11.5 dB. Output third order intercept is >17 dBm. Wideband performance of the TGA3504-SM supports multiple applications such as Electronic Warfare (EW), military and commercial radar and military or commercial communication systems.
Skyworks Solutions Inc., launched its next generation diversity receive modules (DRx) for LTE smartphones. Skyworks' newest DRx modules improve receiver sensitivity and data throughput, deliver higher levels of integration in a smaller footprint and provide the flexibility to support multiple antenna configurations.
Peregrine Semiconductor Corp., founder of RF SOI (silicon on insulator) and pioneer of advanced RF solutions, teams with Murata to announce the 2015 UltraCMOS® Global 1 Initiative. The campaign launches with the UltraCMOS Global 1 PE56500 product demo at Mobile World Congress 2015 in Hall 2, Meeting Room 2A28MR. This new initiative seamlessly integrates the PE56500 all-CMOS RF front-end solution and Murata filters.
NXP Semiconductors N.V. and Freescale Semiconductor, Ltd. announced that they have entered into a definitive agreement under which NXP will merge with Freescale in a transaction which values the combined enterprise at just over $40 billion.
Custom MMIC, a developer of performance-driven monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMICs), is pleased to announce the addition of the CMD214, a new 24 to 36 GHz (output) active x2 frequency multiplier in die form, to its growing line of standard products.
NXP Semiconductors N.V. announced that it has completed its acquisition of Quintic’s Bluetooth Low Energy (BTLE) and Wearable businesses. With this transaction, NXP adds BTLE to an existing portfolio of ultra-low power RF-connectivity solutions key to the Internet-of-Things.
