Ethertronics Completes Development and Full Mass Production Release of First UWB Antenna Solutions for Samsung Electronics
26 Agosto 2020 - 8:30AM
AVX Corporation, a leading manufacturer and supplier of advanced
electronic components and interconnect, sensor, control, and
antenna solutions, announced that its AVX/Ethertronics Korea team
has completed the development and mass production of the first
ultra-wideband (UWB) antenna solutions to be integrated into
Samsung Electronics products. Featured in the new Galaxy Note20
Series, which consists of new 6.7” Galaxy Note20 5G, 6.9” Galaxy
Note20 Ultra 5G, and Galaxy Z Fold2 smartphones and was recently
unveiled at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked virtual event, the new
high-performance UWB antennas are the result of a strategic
partnership and collaboration with Samsung and enable faster, more
effective and efficient communication between devices. Ethertronics
Korea also designed, developed, and completed the mass production
release of the main communication band antennas — including LTE,
GPS, and Wi-Fi antennas — for the Galaxy Note20, Galaxy Z Fold2,
and Galaxy Buds Live products.
Manufactured using a flexible printed circuit (FPC) laminate
with low-permittivity (low-DK/DF) materials, the new UWB antennas
require very little power to transmit large amounts of data at up
to 8Mbit per second over ultra-wideband frequencies of
6.2GHz–6.7GHz and 7.7GHz–8.2GHz at close-range distances up to 10m.
The efficient new UMB antennas also accurately detect other IoT
devices within 30cm, providing Galaxy Note20 and Galaxy Z Fold2
users with faster, more efficient and secure communication.
“The new UWB antennas imbue the latest generation of Samsung’s
flagship Galaxy Series smartphones with the ability to deliver the
high-speed, high-bandwidth performance necessary to support today’s
vast array of connected applications while consuming minimal power
in order to help further prolong battery life,” said Jeffrey
Hilbert, Global Manager and Senior Director, AVX
Antenna/Ethertronics. “We are extremely proud to be a strategic
antenna partner to Samsung and to have had the opportunity to both
collaborate on the first UWB antennas to be integrated into their
proven product line and supply the main communication band antennas
for their new Galaxy Note20, Galaxy Z Fold2, and Galaxy Buds Live
products.”
“For the first time on a Galaxy device with UWB, Nearby Share
will reach a new level of quick and easy sharing on Galaxy Note20
Ultra,” according to a news release from Samsung
Electronics following the first-ever Galaxy Unpacked virtual
event. “By simply pointing Galaxy Note20 Ultra to other
UWB-equipped Galaxy devices, Nearby Share will automatically list
people you’re facing on the top of your sharing panel. Future UWB
functionality will also help you find things more accurately with
augmented reality (AR) technology and unlock your home as a digital
key.”
