ProEficient-Plus Power Amplifiers Deliver the Industry's Highest Efficiency Across All Power Levels to Maximize Battery-Life in 3G and 4G Mobile Devices
WARREN, N.J., Feb. 27, 2013 — (PRNewswire) — � ANADIGICS, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANAD), a world leader in radio frequency (RF) solutions, today expanded its dual-band ProEficient-Plus™ power amplifier (PA) family with the introduction of the AWT6765, optimized for LTE bands 25 and 26. The Company's ProEficient-Plus solutions deliver industry-leading efficiency in low-power mode for greater talk-time and high-power mode for longer data application use. This level of performance is offered in compact and highly integrated dual-band configurations to help maximize overall battery-life and minimize space requirements in mobile devices."The rapid increase in 3G and 4G mobile device use continues to place tremendous pressure on battery-life," said Jerry Miller, vice president of Cellular Products at ANADIGICS. "Our ProEficient-Plus power amplifiers are optimized to address this challenge by delivering the industry's highest combined efficiency for longer talk-time and data use. By offering this power-saving performance in compact, highly integrated dual-band packages, we are providing manufacturers with compelling solutions for ultra-thin, feature-rich mobile devices."
ANADIGICS' ProEficient-Plus solutions leverage the Company's exclusive InGaP-Plus™ technology and patented design architectures to provide world-class efficiency in low and high power modes, as well as exceptionally low quiescent currents without the use of DC/DC converter. ProEficient-Plus power amplifiers are also optimized for use with average power tracking (APT) to further increase efficiency and reduce current consumption at medium and low operating powers. The Company's dual-band ProEficient-Plus solutions offer frequently used band combinations with an internal voltage regulator in compact 3 mm by 4 mm packages to save valuable PCB space.
