Analog Devices released a GaN power amplifier (PA) that provides 35 W with 20 dB power gain and up to 44 percent power-added efficiency (PAE) from 300 MHz to 6 GHz.

At IMS2017, Skyworks Solutions, Inc. expanded its small cell portfolio with the announcement of a high efficiency power amplifier (PA) supporting the unlicensed spectrum for license assisted access (LAA) and LTE unlicensed (LTE-U). LAA and LTE-U are capabilities enabled in LTE-Advanced that allow cellular systems to tap the 5 GHz Wi-Fi spectrum to increase data capacity.

Custom MMIC added two low loss, high linearity and high isolation MMIC mixers to their growing family of fundamental, I/Q and image rejection mixers.

Custom MMIC added a new packaged, DC to 20 GHz distributed amplifier, CMD201P5, to its growing portfolio of broad range distributed amplifier MMICs.

At the 2017 International Microwave Symposium, Peregrine Semiconductor Corp. introduced the UltraCMOS® PE42823, a high power receiver protection RF switch. Targeting wireless infrastructure applications, the reflective switch is optimized for emerging radio architectures such as massive MIMO.

Analog Devices, Inc. (ADI) announced the latest update to its RadioVerse™ technology and design ecosystem, which simplifies and accelerates radio development for wireless carriers and telecommunications equipment manufacturers, as they transition their cellular base stations from 4G to 5G.
