"We are pleased to continue playing a critical role in the Samsung GALAXY Note success story by enabling wireless connectivity in each of the past three generations of this award-winning product line," said Jerry Miller, senior vice president of Worldwide Sales and Applications at ANADIGICS. "Our differentiated ProEficient-Plus solutions offer the industry's highest combined efficiency. This performance advantage enables large-screen mobile devices to offer an unparalleled multimedia experience with maximum talk time and data use."
ANADIGICS' ProEficient-Plus power amplifiers utilize the Company's patented InGaP-Plus™ technology and innovative design architectures to deliver the industry's highest efficiency across all power levels, enabling greater talk time and longer data application use. This level of performance, combined with exceptionally low quiescent currents without the use of a DC/DC converter, maximizes battery life in mobile devices. The ALT6735 power amplifier delivers 44% power added efficiency (PAE) at +28.8 dBm and an impressive 31% PAE at +16.5 dBm. ProEficient-Plus power amplifiers are also designed for use with an external switch mode power supply (SMPS), in applications using average power tracking (APT), to further increase efficiency and reduce current consumption at low and medium operating powers.
