뉴저지--(뉴스와이어)--ANADIGICS, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANAD) announced that its AWT6224, AWT6321 and AWT6222 3G dual-band power amplifier (PA) modules are being used in LG Electronics’ new ARENA (KM900) multimedia, touch screen handsets for the European, Asian and Central/South American markets.

The LG KM900 ARENA offers a 3-inch, 262K color touchscreen display. It provides tri-band GSM and 3G support, Wi-Fi, and GPS connectivity, as well as Bluetooth and USB. Running on a new user interface dubbed as S-class, the LG ARENA will be powered by a 1000 mAh battery that is said to last for 300 hours of standby or 3 hours and 50 minutes of talk time. It also features Mobile TV and a five megapixel built-in camera, which records DVD-quality videos.

Dr. Ali Khatibzadeh, Sr. Vice President and General Manager, RF Products at ANADIGICS, Inc., reports, “ANADIGICS has been a longstanding, strategic supplier of RF front-end solutions to LG Electronics. We are proud to have been selected again as the vendor of choice for their new flagship touch-screen 3G smart phones.”

ANADIGICS’ broad portfolio of high-performance 3G power amplifiers enables OEMs to rapidly deliver multiple versions of a new platform to different operators around the world. All three of the PA modules used in the LG ARENA are available in identical 3mm x 5mm packages which reduce RF board area requirements and simplify the layout.
