Power Added Efficiency CGHV96050F1
50W (25W linear under OQPSK) 7.9-8.4GHz 30% (Linear) CGHV96100F1
100W (50W linear under OQPSK) 7.9-8.4GHz 28% (Linear) CGHV96050F2
50W Pulsed (100µSec, 10% duty) 8.4-9.6GHz 50% (PSAT) CGHV96100F2
100W Pulsed (100µSec, 10% duty) 8.4-9.6GHz 45% (PSAT)
The efficiency advantages in using these new GaN devices can be up to three times greater when compared to current GaAs MESFET transistors.
Ehat’s more, the wide video bandwidth of GaN HEMT transistors allows for their use in multi-carrier applications with two-tone spacing up to 70MHz.
The fully matched GaN HEMT transistors complement two previously released packaged MMICs, designated the CMPA5585025F and CMPA801B025F, which can also be used as drivers for the CGHV96050 or CGHV96100.
Skyworks in Globe 100 for fourth time in a row
The company was ranked 8th in the Boston Globe’s 2011 Listing of the best performing public companies in Massachusetts
Skyworks Solutions, an innovator of analogue semiconductors enabling a broad range of end markets, has been named in the Boston Globe’s list of top performing public companies in Massachusetts for the fourth consecutive year. The Globe 100 ranking, which is now in its 24th year, is based on several financial factors including year- over-year revenue growth and profit margin, as well as return on average equity.
For the first time in three years, the Globe 100 list features 100 companies. In 2010 and 2011, less

than 100 companies qualified given the impact of the recession. “The positive momentum we are seeing in the economic recovery is illustrated by the Globe 100 returning to full strength,” says Shirley Leung, business editor at the Boston Globe. “It’s a powerful testament to the resiliency of Massachusetts’ businesses.” “Skyworks is delighted to once again be recognised as one of Massachusetts’s most highly regarded and well performing companies,” adds David J. Aldrich, president and chief executive officer at Skyworks.
“In 2011, Skyworks made significant progress towards solidifying our leadership position in analogue semiconductor solutions across a diverse set of applications. We are capitalising on consumers’ demand for mobile connectivity and are well positioned to benefit from the explosive growth in wirelessly-enabled platforms and services.” The Globe 100 ranks Massachusetts- based public companies based on financial data from the four quarters ending December 31, 2011. To be eligible, the company must be traded publicly for the entire 2011 calendar year on the New York Stock Exchange, the Nasdaq or the American Stock Exchange and report revenue and profit for both 2010 and 2011.
