TriQuint Launches New LTE Smartphone Components

Hillsboro, Oregon-based TriQuint Semiconductor said today that it has launched a brand new product, aimed at the new crop of next-generation smartphones and mobile devices which incorporate the LTE wireless standard. According to TriQuint--whose components are a key part of the insides of many electronics devices--it has launched a new set of high performance, acoustic wave filters specifically aimed at 4G smartphones. The filters are used in those phones and other devices to reduce interference issues due to crowded spectrum being used in 2G, 3G, and 4G voice and data services. Filters are used in wireless devices to select only the frequency bands wanted by designers for specific signals.
