The GALAXY Tab, based on the Android Operating System, is Samsung’s first tablet computing device and is part of its new portfolio of mobile products. The GALAXY Tab features a 7-inch TFT-LCD display for a wide variety of mobile applications, including watching TV shows and movies, viewing photos, browsing the web, playing games, e-book reading and document sharing. It is also one of the first tablets in the market to have two (front-facing & rear) cameras. ANADIGICS’ high efficiency PAs help to extend the Tab’s battery life and the user’s mobile broadband experience.
“The Samsung GALAXY Tab is one of the most impressive mobile devices available today. We are honored to play an integral role in helping Samsung deliver exceptional mobile experiences to consumers through this product,” said Mario Rivas, President and CEO for ANADIGICS. “With our industry leading high performing PAs and Samsung’s innovative cutting edge products, we continue to strengthen our long-standing relationship by providing high-quality wireless computing solutions.”
Key features of the ANADIGICS PAs utilized by the Samsung GALAXY Tab: The AWC6323 is the first ANADIGICS HELP3E™ dual-band CDMA PA in a 3 x 5 x 1 mm footprint. Featuring the industry’s lowest quiescent current for a CDMA power amplifier, the AWC6323 plays an integral role in extending battery life and improving the overall performance of today’s leading mobile devices. The device is manufactured on an advanced InGaP HBT MMIC technology, offering state-of-the-art reliability, temperature stability and ruggedness.
The AWU6601 incorporates ANADIGICS’ HELP3 technology to provide low power consumption without the need for an external voltage regulator. A “daisy-chainable” directional coupler is integrated in the module, eliminating the need for external couplers thus simplifying the device board layouts. The AWU6601 is also manufactured on InGaP HBT technology and the self-contained 3 x 3 x 1 mm surface mount package incorporates matching networks optimized for output power, efficiency and linearity.
