Murata overtager Renesas' HPA-aktiviteter

Renesas afhænder firmaets aktiviteter inden for high-power amplifiers (HPA'er) til Murata, der nu kan levere samlede modulløsninger med HPA'er og RF-komponenter som filtre og switche (in english)

Murata Manufacturing Co., Ltd., the world's number one supplier of passive electronic components, and Renesas Electronics Corporation a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today announced that they signed a basic agreement to transfer Renesas Electronics' high-power amplifier (HPA) business and its manufacturing site to Murata Manufacturing. Based on the basic agreement signed today, the companies plan to conclude a definitive agreement of this business transfer, which is scheduled to be completed by January 1, 2012.

With the growing demand for smartphones, and the expansion of the low-end models in developing countries, the market of mobile phones, which is the major user of power amplifiers, is experiencing a growing trend toward using module and platform solutions that integrate basic communication functions in a single device. In particular, demand is growing for modules that incorporate HPAs with radio frequency (RF) components, such as filters and switches.

In light of these changing business environments, while maintaining the world-leading market share of front-end modules (FEMs), Murata Manufacturing has been examining measures to strengthen its power amplifier technology in order to promote the integration of front-end modules including power amplifiers and to expand its business.

Renesas Electronics has been supplying power amplifier modules to the mobile handset makers without RF filters and switches. To further strengthen its business structure, the company has been studying ways to respond to the demand for a one-stop module that incorporates an FEM.
