    FLASH Technology: Semiconductor Industry Update Monday, September 23, 2019 Initial iPhone 11 Pro Max Teardowns Offer Few Chip Surprises Craig A. Ellis Summary and Recommendation 415-229-4835 Friday, 9/20, an iPhone 11 Pro Max teardown emerged from iFixit.com, identifying 17 different [email protected] chip parts. In assessing semi and semi cap implications, we offer three caveats: 1) more detailed Carlin Lynch Chipworks and Techinsights teardowns will sharply expand the design-in list in the next week. 703-312-1797 2) Even those may miss WLAN PA’s (a historic SWKS strength), discretes, capacitors and others, [email protected] while Broadcom's (AVGO) combo connectivity flies under the radar within Apple (AAPL) branded modules. 3) Model(s) dissected are a subset of all versions produced and supplier variation can be substantial model-to-model with the lower priced and likely higher volume iPhone 11’s noteworthy. Observations expand on initial product announcement takeaways noted in 9/11’s “AAPL iPhone New Product Release Chip/Equipment Laterals…” including a sharply higher A13 APU transistor count, a tiny bump in RF band count, retained NAND densities but significantly enhanced camera and video capability and much longer battery life. Specific observations include: 1) Skyworks (SWKS—Buy, $95 PT) three parts (78221-17 low- band PAMiD, 78223-17 PAM, and 13797-19 DRx) appears one fewer than CY18’s XS MAX, 2) a single AVGO-labeled part (8100 Mid/High band PAMiD) is likely complimented by the Apple/USI branded WiFi+Bluetooth 339S00648, 3) Qorvo (QRVO) added envelope tracking (81013). 4) In storage, Toshiba’s NAND is unsurprising while memory’s 4GB MU DRAM affirms flat densities.

  • | New Front-End Module Powering Wi-Fi 6 Applications
    | New Front-end Module Powering Wi-Fi 6 Applications Skyworks is pleased to introduce SKY85333-11 (2.4 GHz) and SKY85747-11 (5 GHz) – two new front-end modules (FEMs) in our portfolio of solutions designed for high- power Wi-Fi 6 (802.11ax) applications and systems. These highly integrated FEMs incorporate switching, low-noise amplifier (LNA) with bypass and power amplifier (PA) for devices such as networking and WLAN-enabled wireless video streaming systems. Both devices feature very low EVM floor with 1024 QAM signal which improves throughput and meets requirements for MU-MIMO operation. The modules offer extremely high linear output power - up to regulation limits for improving coverage range. The SKY85333-11 and SKY85747-11 are available now and support leading reference designs based on the Qualcomm (QCA) Hawkeye family. Features: • Integrated module includes high-performance PA, LNA with bypass and transmit/receive switch • High linear output power and low receive noise figure improves system Read Skyworks’ article sensitivity and coverage range “Next Generation Wi-Fi: 6 • Fully matched input and output GHz is on the Horizon” • Compact LGA (24-pin, 3 x 5 mm) package Reference Design Company Part Name/Number Hawkeye IPQ807x family Sales and Technical Support Pricing depends on quantities.
