Skyworks Fuels 5G Small Cell Carrier Roll Outs, Accelerates Upgrade Cycle for Global 5G Infrastructure

businesswire | January 13, 2021

Skyworks Solutions, Inc. (Nasdaq: SWKS), a trailblazer of superior simple semiconductors associating individuals, spots and things, today declared a critical achievement with the shipment of more than 1 million of its SKY66318-21 force intensifier (PA), the business' first high proficiency little cell PA with a transfer speed of 200 MHz at +28 dBm. This accomplishment features Skyworks quickening the reception of 5G by empowering upgraded 5G associations and controlling more effective reach expansion for little cells. To show the advantages of this energizing new innovation, Skyworks additionally teamed up with Xilinx, Inc. to grandstand the otherworldly and force productivity feasible utilizing the SKY66318-21 PA in 5G foundation applications during the CES 2021 Show.

The exhibit incorporates Skyworks' SKY66318-21 high-productivity PA, Xilinx's Crest Factor Reduction (CFR) and Digital Pre-Distortion IP alongside a RF handset from Texas Instruments. Highlighting an exceptionally proficient, wide momentary transfer speed, completely input/yield coordinated PA with high increase and linearity, the SKY66318-21 empowers recently unloaded activity in both the Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) and the 5G C-band, making it very much situated for "transporter sharing" where various administrators can make the most of the chance to have a similar hardware. The exhibition might be seen by visiting the Skyworks CES virtual corner.

As indicated by a Nov. 2020 report distributed by Allied Market Research1, the little cell 5G organization industry is relied upon to reach $8.32 billion by 2027, enrolling a build yearly development pace of 43% from 2020 to 2027. The report additionally takes note of that the ascent in organization densification, increment in portable information traffic, coming of Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) band, and development in interest in 5G foundation by a few economies have driven the development of the worldwide little cell 5G organization market.

“For emerging 5G environments, it is critical that the PA can deliver increased efficiency while meeting challenging out-of-band emissions and EVM requirements,” said Dan Mansur, vice president of marketing, Wired and Wireless Group at Xilinx. “We are delighted to collaborate with Skyworks and TI to provide our highly adaptable CFR and DPD IP which offers a scalable digital front-end solution to address future RF PA efficiency needs.”

“As 5G is being deployed globally and with the mid-band serving as the sweet spot thanks to its speed, capacity and range, the SKY66318-21 is a robust addition to Skyworks’ broad portfolio of complete connectivity solutions,” said David Stasey, vice president and general manager of diversified analog solutions for Skyworks. “Regardless of band, Skyworks is poised to meet the need for densification in the rapidly expanding small cell market.”
The SKY66318-21 PA has a minimal plan, making it ideal for 5G NR and 4G LTE frameworks working from 3300 to 3700 MHz. Dynamic biasing hardware is incorporated to make up for temperature, voltage, and cycle variety. The SKY66318-21 is essential for a high-proficiency, pin-to-stick viable PA family supporting major 3GPP groups.

Solidigm Introduces the World’s Highest Capacity PCIe SSD for Massive Data Storage From Core to Edge

businesswire | July 24, 2023

Solidigm, a leading global provider of innovative NAND flash memory solutions, is proud to announce another industry-first quad-level cell (QLC) solid-state storage drive (SSD) for the data center — the Solidigm™ D5-P5336. Offered in capacities from 7.68TB to 61.44TB, the Solidigm D5-P5336 makes it possible to store up to 6X more data in the same space compared to an all hard disk drive (HDD) array.1 "Modern workloads like AI and capabilities like 5G are rapidly reshaping the storage landscape,” said Greg Matson, VP of Strategic Planning and Marketing at Solidigm. “Businesses need storage in more places that is inexpensive, able to store massive data sets efficiently and access the data at speed. The D5-P5336 delivers on all three -- value, density and performance. With QLC, the economics are compelling -- imagine storing 6X more data than HDDs and 2X more data than TLC SSDs, all in the same space at TLC speed." Built to handle massive amounts of data from the core to the edge, the read performance of the Solidigm D5-P5336 exceeds some of the latest cost-optimized triple-level cell (TLC) SSDs on the market today.2 Artificial intelligence (AI), machine learning (ML), content delivery networks, scale-out network attached storage (NAS), and object storage are all read-intensive workloads that continue to drive enormous volumes of data, regardless of where they reside. Massive scalability and improved TCO across a range of configurations With its high capacity enabling smaller storage footprints, Solidigm’s D5-P5336 enables a lower total cost of ownership and more sustainable infrastructure than all-TLC arrays, SAS HDD arrays, or hybrid arrays. Consider the following, based on a 100PB object “For years there has been debate about endurance and reliability of SSDs, QLC in particular, but Solidigm might have ended that debate with the D5-P5336,” noted Avery Pham, VP Operations, VAST Data. “Any number of applications will see notable benefits from these drives from AI and machine learning to object storage.” "Today, it is clear that the primary constraint for edge workloads is the limitation of bandwidth rather than latency,” said Doug Emby, VP of Sales and Business Development at Cheetah RAID Storage. “Solidigm’s D5-P5336 QLC SSDs offer an impressive combination of capacity, performance, and reliability as a solution to overcome this challenge. The seamless integration of these Solidigm QLC SSDs with Cheetah's high-performance servers makes them highly suitable for the efficient deployment of edge solutions." The D5-P5336 is shipping now in E1.L form factor with up to 30.72TB, with subsequent availability extending to 61.44TB in both U.2 and E1.L later this year. In the first half of 2024, Solidigm will be shipping E3.S form factor with up to 30.72TB. 1 All-HDD capacity based on 12x 3.5” front load bays x 20TB = 240TB. HDD capacity does not factor in any over-provisioning required to meet storage performance needs. All-QLC capacity based on 24x U.2 front load bays x 61.44TB D5-P5336 = 1474TB. Max 2U U.2 based on HPE Proliant DL385 Gen 11 configuration. Max 2U 3.5” HDD bays based on Supermicro 2U SuperServer design. 2 Up to 34% higher throughput than entry TLC SSDs and 20% higher than mainstream TLC SSDs for CDN workload. Comparing 15.36TB Solidigm™ D5-P5336 with read BW of 7.5GB/sec to15.36TB Kioxia CD8-R with 5.6 GB/sec as entry TLC SSD and to 15.36TB Micron 7450 with 6.2GB/sec as mainstream TLC SSD. Workload based on representative customer profile. Test Configuration: Supermicro SYS-120U-TNR, Intel(R) Xeon(R) Gold 6354. Number of CPUs: 2, Cores per CPU: 18 (total 36), DRAM: DDR4 – 64GB, OS: Ubuntu 20.04.5 LTS Linux 5.15.0-67-generic. FIO 3.16.
