The Fujitsu MB86L01A is the industry’s first commercial multi-mode transceiver to eliminate 3G TX and RX inter-stage SAW filters and low-noise amplifiers (LNAs). The transceiver features a high-level programming model for controlling the radio using an open standard digital interface (3G DigRF/MIPI), which is compatible with a wide range of industry basebands.

Using a revolutionary RF programming method that reduces development time − the time to first call − by up to 66 percent, the MB86L01A also improves RF subsystem implementations with simplified layer-one programming and embedded intelligence. With this revolutionary approach, an engineer enters a single command stating the desired channel and power level; this command sets the parameters and times the events so that system compliance is virtually assured.

The new, compact transceiver module enables cell phone manufacturers to reduce component count, board space and bill of materials.
