Skyworks Supports Samsung's Trace t519 Phone

Skyworks Solutions announces that its Helios II EDGE radio is supporting Samsung's Trace t519 handset, a high-speed connectivity mobile phone sold exclusively by T-Mobile. Since the Helios architecture effectively cuts the radio frequency board space in half, the Trace comes packed with multimedia features including Bluetooth, an MP3 player, a built-in 1.3 megapixel camera with video capture technology, and an external memory slot - all within a handset just .33" thick. A wide-screen and landscape-oriented display make viewing messages, photos and videos a user-friendly experience.

Trace is the latest in a series of phones powered by Helios. Skyworks EDGE radio shipments have increased substantially over the past year with volume shipments growing to over five million units in the most recent quarter, up from approximately 100,000 units a year ago. The world's leading handset manufacturers rely on Helios' high performance, cost-effective power efficient architecture with the flexibility to interface with a wide variety of baseband processors.
