Fujitsu introduces multimode, multiband transceiver IC for 2G/3G/4G mobile products

Fujitsu Semiconductor Wireless Products, Inc. (FSWP) today introduced the MB86L11A, the company’s next-generation, single-chip 2G/3G/4G transceiver. The multiband, multimode device supports all modes, including LTE (FDD and TDD), HSPA+, WCDMA, GSM, EDGE, EDGE-EVO, CDMA, and TD-SCDMA. The MB86L11A 2G/3G/4G multimode, multiband transceiver supports benchmark performance for current drain and RF parameters. The transceiver includes many features in a smaller package with enhanced power control, envelope tracking (ET) and antenna tuning (AT). Envelope tracking technology helps to significantly lower the radio system power consumption, while improving transmitter efficiency. Antenna tuning optimizes the total radiated power output from the antenna. Both features optimize the battery life of mobile devices. An advanced programming interface (API) feature minimizes factory calibration time, provides flexible port mapping and adds customized key performance indicator (KPI) features.
