RF solutions developer TriQuint Semiconductor, Inc. has announced several new filters that utilize the company’s advanced acoustic wave filtering technologies to address LTE interference problems in next-generation smartphones and other mobile devices.
“TriQuint’s expanding line of advanced filters solves challenging LTE interference issues for mobile device manufacturers and can provide higher data rates over longer distances for end-users,” Sean Riley, vice president of mobile products, said. “Our specialty quadplexer also enables carrier aggregation techniques for operators eager to boost spectrum efficiency within their overburdened networks. These filters leverage our proprietary acoustic wave technologies to accelerate the next generation of wireless communications.”
TriQuint’s new filter offerings include the industry’s first diplexer for LTE Bands 38 and 40, which is more than 30% smaller than discrete solutions; the first carrier aggregation module for Bands 2/25 and 4, an integrated quadplexer that is half the size of discrete architectures; and a new Band 7 LTE duplexer and Band 41 LTE receive filter, which both achieve exceptionally low insertion loss to help maximize the incoming signal strength.
