Founded in 1985, ANADIGICS (Nasdaq: ANAD) pioneered the high volume cost-effective manufacture of high performance gallium arsenide integrated circuits (GaAs ICs).
Today ANADIGICS is a leading worldwide supplier for communications markets. ANADIGICS designs and manufactures radio frequency integrated circuit (RFIC) solutions for growing broadband and wireless communications markets. The Company's innovative high frequency RFICs enable manufacturers of communications equipment to enhance overall system performance by reducing the size and weight of their products, increasing power efficiency, improving reliability, and reducing manufacturing cost and time to market. By utilizing state of the art manufacturing processes for its RFICs, ANADIGICS achieves the high-volume, low-cost manufacturing required by leading companies in its targeted high-growth communications markets. The Company's 6-inch GaAs manufacturing facility utilizes state-of-the-art technology and manufacturing processes to deliver high quality InGaP HBT, GaAs MESFET, and GaAs pHEMT RFIC products. ANADIGICS' products can be found in homes and businesses throughout the world in a diverse range of applications.
The widespread acceptance of ANADIGICS' products stems from their superior performance, high quality, and cost-effectiveness. As an increasing number of high volume applications emerge in the communications industry ANADIGICS' products are well placed to serve as the "on-off ramp" for the information superhighway.
Serving global communications markets
ANADIGICS focuses its design and manufacturing resources on two distinct markets that are exhibiting increasing demand on a worldwide scale - wireless (HSPA, WCDMA/GPRS, WCDMA/EDGE, EDGE, WCDMA, & CDMA phones); and broadband (including cable & terrestrial systems, which includes set-top box, television, DTV, HDTV, and PVRs/DVRs).
ANADIGICS has pioneered the acceptance of GaAs technology within these global markets through collaboration with our customers who are the world's leading companies in their industry sector.
Products
ANADIGICS' products are designed to be used as front-end circuits for high frequency receivers and transmitters, serve as a bridge between information sent through a medium - air, cable or optical fiber - and advanced electronic equipment.
For wireless communications systems ANADIGICS produces compact high-efficiency power amplifiers, RF switches and highly-compact front-end transmit modules. These serve markets covering every major global standard from CDMA and EDGE mobile phones, to the latest generation of 3G systems.
For broadband markets ANADIGICS has developed a number of high bandwidth GaAs ICs, such as upconverters and downconverters, that replace more than 60 discrete components, thereby reducing manufacturing costs for the customer, and enhancing the reliability of the system. The Company also offers a family of integrated tuners that provide complete RF front-end tuning capabilities for digital and analog video and data applications. ANADIGICS' broad portfolio of reliable, high performance CATV infrastructure products can be found throughout the world's cable TV networks in applications ranging from head-end equipment and cable distribution systems to the home. ANADIGICS is also a leading supplier of wireless broadband products, including power amplifiers for wireless LAN and WiMAX applications.
