Arctic Semiconductor Shipping IceWings

Arctic Semiconductor, the low-power RF specialist, has started shipping its first 5G silicon chipset, IceWings, made on GloFo’s 22nm FD-SOI process.

Arctic, previously called SiTunes, has been developing IceWings and other 5G chipsets for more than three years and holds over 40 patents.

Arctic’s chipsets are used in small cells, private networks, Fixed Wireless Access (FWA), macro base stations, and massive MIMO platforms.

Arctic aims to lower power consumption while offering top-of-the-line performance for both network equipment and user devices.

IceWings is an RF transceiver with four integrated transmitters and receivers which supports a wide range of standards in signal frequencies below 7.2GHz and enables mmWave applications by intermediate to baseband conversion.

IceWings’  design allows customers to use the same hardware design with minor updates across a diverse set of use cases.
