GaAs-based broadband wireless and wireline communications component maker Anadigics Inc of Warren, NJ, USA says that its AWL9581 front-end integrated circuit (FEIC) is enabling 5GHz 802.11ac WiFi connectivity in LG Electronics' new G2 smartphone.
"We are thrilled that our 802.11ac WiFi front-end IC is powering the sleek and innovative G2 smartphone by LG Electronics," said Jonathan Griffith, VP of WiFi Products at Anadigics. "Our 802.11ac WiFi solutions have set the standard in FEIC form, fit and function by combining industry-leading efficiency for longer battery-life and world-class linearity for greater throughput in a highly integrated, space-saving package."
Anadigics' AWL9581 5GHz FEIC leverages the firm's exclusive InGaP-Plus technology and patented design architectures to combine a high performance power amplifier (PA), low-noise amplifier (LNA), and RF switch on a single die. The complete family of 802.11ac FEICs provides outstanding error vector magnitude (EVM) and noise figure performance, which enables ultra-high data throughput, says the firm.
