Facility to Support Growing Demand for 3G and 4G Front-End Solutions
WOBURN, Mass., Dec 12, 2011 (BUSINESS WIRE) -- Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (SWKS), an innovator of high reliability analog and mixed signal semiconductors enabling a broad range of end markets, today announced that it has opened a design center in Korea to support the Company's increasing demand for 3G and 4G front-end solutions. In fiscal 2011, Skyworks grew its 3G front-end module shipments by more than 150 percent year-over-year. The site will support integrated circuit and multi-chip-module designs and layouts, RF-laboratory work, and customer support through early manufacturing.
"Skyworks is delighted to be placing more of our highly-skilled engineering teams closer to our customers," said Gregory L. Waters, executive vice president and general manager, front-end solutions at Skyworks. "We realize that our customers' success depends upon the performance and reliability of our products, and the strength of our service.

"With the introduction of the SkyOne(TM) platform, Skyworks is redefining mobile communications technology," said Gregory L. Waters, executive vice president and general manager of front-end solutions at Skyworks. "Our breakthrough architecture is the culmination of extensive research and development that leverages Skyworks' product depth, intellectual property scale and system-level expertise. As OEMs focus on industrial design, application development and marketing, they are increasingly turning to Skyworks to deliver a complete, drop-in front-end solution that optimizes each band and imposes no additional requirements to match components. SkyOne(TM) uniquely answers our customers' design, implementation and time to market needs by ensuring that all RF and analog functionality works in concert."
