TriQuint Semiconductor focusing more on broadband connectivity enabling devices

TriQuint Semiconductor has introduced the new solutions for broadband connectivity with cable systems, microwave radio and optical networks products at Europe's largest microwave conference and exhibition, European Microwave Week, (Rome, 28 Sept. - 2 Oct.)

"Network operators are seeing substantial increases in radio, optical and cable network traffic because of the growing popularity of home and mobile data applications. Operators are looking for cost-effective ways to expand capacity while lowering operational expenses. Greener, more efficient systems that use less energy for amplification and cooling are especially appealing," observed Asif Anwar, Director, GaAs and Compound Semiconductor Technologies Service, Strategy Analytics.

"TriQuint GaAs-based products are inherently more efficient and offer high linearity for those applications that require it. This places TriQuint in good position to take advantage of a projected 10% CAGR for point-to-point radio products and a cable infrastructure CAGR of 14% through 2013. The fiber optic IC market CAGR should more than double during this period while the emerging 40Gb/s segment will lead growth with a projected 78% CAGR through 2013," he added.

TriQuint has recently acquired cable TV and fiber-to-the-home (FTTH) RFIC expert TriAccess Technologies. TriAccess offers a 'triple-play' line-up of highly linear amplifiers with low power consumption for internet-video-voice services. Demand for TriAccess products has doubled as cable and telecom companies race to enhance networks for high-speed multimedia content delivery.
