Switches and Capacitors for Antenna Tuning

Antenna tuning and antenna diversity are key for smartphone manufacturers looking for analog semiconductor solutions that can handle more than 20 cellular frequency bands, as well as WiFi and Bluetooth®.

Antenna tuning and antenna diversity can be used to provide a highly efficient platform to optimize radiated requirements. Antenna diversity can improve RF transmission performance, and antenna tuning enhances a cellular operator’s available spectrum. Skyworks has developed switches and capacitors that act as solutions for this emerging market. The potential result is higher data rates with a reduction in the number of antennas typically needed to support global roaming in data-intensive smartphones.
