Avago Technologies' FBAR Filter Technology Designed Into Latest Generation of 4G & LTE Smartphones

From Avago Technologies

The worldwide mobile handset quarterly growth rate remains in the single digits, but shipments of smartphones continue
to explode; and with each successive generation, smartphones continue to off er more user features and capabilities
without signifi cantly growing the size and weight of the phone. The driver behind these new devices is the rollout
of new cellular networks known as 4G and LTE (Long Term Evolution), with most people equating the latest service with
faster download speeds and a better mobile internet experience.

Products & Services
RF Upconverters and RF Downconverters
RF upconverters and RF downconverters are integrated assemblies that convert microwave signals to another frequency range for further processing. Generally, they are designed to produce an output signal frequency for a particular frequency band.
RF Switches
RF switches route radio frequency signals to particular waveguides.
RF Band Pass Filters
RF band pass filters are active or passive circuits that pass signals from a specific frequency band and reject signals from out-of-band frequencies. Surface acoustic wave (SAW) filters, crystal filters, and cavity filters are types of band pass filters.
RF Receivers
RF receivers are electronic devices that enable a particular radio signal to be separated from all others being received and converted into a format for video, voice, or data.
Board Mount RF Filters
Board mount RF filters are devices mounted to a printed circuit board (PCB) which pass or reject signals by frequency.
