WARREN, NJ--(뉴스와이어)--ANADIGICS, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANAD), a world leader in radio frequency (RF) and mixed signal semiconductor solutions, today announced the expansion of its fourth generation High-Efficiency-at-Low-Power (HELP4™) LTE (Long Term Evolution) power amplifier (PA) family. The ALT67xx series HELP4™ 4G PAs have three selectable power modes to deliver the power and linearity required for 4G mobile devices over a full range of operating conditions.

ANADIGICS‘ HELP4™ 4G PAs use the Company’s exclusive InGaP-Plus™ technology to achieve optimal efficiency across low-range and mid-range output power levels and provide the lowest quiescent currents in the industry. The ALT67xx series deliver industry-leading efficiency to extend battery life in handsets, smart phones, tablets, netbooks, and notebooks. The Company's HELP4™ PAs also provide highly efficient operation in WCMDA, HSPA and HSPA+ systems.

“The rapid deployment of LTE networks is enabling manufacturers to design new mobile devices with unprecedented access to multimedia content,” said Marcus Wise, Vice President of Wireless RF Products at ANADIGICS. “Our expanded HELP4™ power amplifier family supports fifteen LTE bands, enabling users around the world to experience the full potential of wireless 4G on long-lived mobile devices.”

A report published by the Global Mobile Suppliers Association (GSA), in January 2011, confirmed 128 operator commitments to deploy commercial LTE systems in 52 countries. The number of operators investing in LTE deployments and trials increased by more than 140% in just one year, making LTE the fastest developing system in the history of mobile telecommunications.

Key ALT67xx Series Facts and Highlights:

· Industry-Leading Performance
o Average current consumption reduction of 30%, compared with previous generation PAs
o Three mode states to achieve exceptional power-added efficiencies at low-range and mid-range output power levels
o Industry's lowest quiescent current of less than 4 mA
o Best-in-class linearity at maximum output power
· High Level of Integration
o 3 mm by 3 mm by 1 mm footprint
o Integrated DC blocks on RF ports
o Internal voltage regulation
o Integrated “daisy chainable” directional RF coupler with 20dB directivity
· Complete Family of Products
o Support for paired FDD and unpaired TDD LTE spectrums
o Identical pin-out across entire family
