ANADIGICS Expands Dual-Band ProEficient-Plus Power Amplifier Family


WARREN, N.J., Feb. 27, 2013 /PRNewswire via COMTEX/ -- ANADIGICS, Inc. (Nasdaq: ANAD), a world leader in radio frequency (RF) solutions, today expanded its dual-band ProEficient-Plus(TM) power amplifier (PA) family with the introduction of the AWT6765, optimized for LTE bands 25 and 26. The Company's ProEficient-Plus solutions deliver industry-leading efficiency in low-power mode for greater talk-time and high-power mode for longer data application use. This level of performance is offered in compact and highly integrated dual-band configurations to help maximize overall battery-life and minimize space requirements in mobile devices.
