WARREN, NJ -- (Marketwire) -- 08/25/09 -- ANADIGICS, Inc. (NASDAQ: ANAD) today
announced that the Company's HELP3(TM) power amplifier (PA) modules are
being used by Intermec Technologies Corporation for the Wireless Wide-Area
Network (WAN) Flexible Network(TM) Radio in its new CN50 mobile
computer. The Intermec CN50 is the industry's most advanced rugged
mobile computer, which includes 3.75G wireless wide-area network capability
that supports both voice and high-speed data exchange.
The CN50 uses ANADIGICS' HELP3(TM) (3rd Generation High Efficiency at Low
Power) power amplifiers to enable connectivity on high-speed wireless
broadband networks utilizing WCDMA/HSPA or CDMA/EVDO technology. The ANADIGICS power amplifiers support
operation in the Cellular, PCS, IMT, AWS and KPCS bands. ANADIGICS' PA
modules are differentiated by their high linearity and power efficiency,
which are necessary for a high performance broadband mobile experience for
consumers. ANADIGICS' proprietary HELP3(TM) technology reduces average
current consumption by as much as 75 percent, compared to a conventional PA, enabling longer battery
life.
The CN50 is designed specifically for the "hold and carry" activities of
postal, field service, transportation, and commercial delivery workers.
The lightweight, multi-function CN50 eliminates the need to manage multiple
devices such as cell phones, digital cameras and document scanners, thereby
reducing operational costs while improving service quality, accuracy,
responsiveness and worker productivity. The WAN Flexible Network(TM) Radio
allows enterprises to standardize on a single hardware platform that can be
configured for either CDMA/EVDO or WCDMA/HSPA wireless networks, providing
the flexibility to choose the network that provides the best geographic
coverage and cost.
"ANADIGICS' reliable, high-performance, power amplifiers enable our
customers to develop innovative wireless platforms to utilize the power of
3G mobile broadband data connectivity," says Bruce Webber, Director of
Marketing for ANADIGICS.
