The Black Sand BST34 series of power amplifiers is designed as a drop-in replacement for existing 3G GaAs (gallium arsenide) power amplifiers, improving supply and lowering cost for handset manufacturers; the BST35 series moves the market forward, using another important feature of CMOS process technology - the ability to integrate more intelligence and functionality on-chip. The overall result is a reduction in the incidence of dropped calls, increase in real-world data rates and reductions in network operators' capital expenditure requirements.
