Nujira Enters Production Contract with Sanmina-SCI
December 8, 2008 |Estimated reading time: 2 minutes
Nujira today announced that it has placed a volume production contract for its Coolteq power modulator modules for cellular base stations with Sanmina-SCI in Shenzhen, China. Nujira Coolteq modules can halve the energy consumption of 3G and 4G base stations by improving the efficiency of the RF transmission circuits.
Tim Haynes, CEO of Nujira, commented, "Nujira modules are currently either being evaluated under contract or embedded into products by fifteen top cellular and broadcast infrastructure vendors. The demand that these engagements are generating makes it cost-effective to move Coolteq production out of its current European location to a lower cost facility in China."
He continued, "Coolteq modules are complex products, and we carefully evaluated the manufacturing expertise and the quality parameters of a large number of global EMS vendors before selecting Sanmina-SCI as a partner that could meet our standards within a competitive business model."
Coolteq-H cellular network modules are the first to enter volume production.
The engagement with Sanmina-SCI also covers the future manufacturing of the recently announced Coolteq-U broadcast power modulator modules.
Oliver Digel, Senior Vice President of Business Development, EMEA, for Sanmina-SCI added, "Nujira is an exciting venture because it has a solution that delivers both environmental and business benefits to cellular network and broadcast transmitter operators at a time when they are renewing their infrastructure. We're delighted to have been selected as their manufacturing partner for these demanding products."
Nujira Coolteq power modulator modules can more than double the efficiency of RF transmission circuits in cellular base stations, cellular handsets and broadcast transmitters. The Power Amplifier uses around half the power of a typical cellular base station--and, according to industry estimates, the transmission network can account for 86% of a cellular operator's carbon emissions. Coolteq modules are based on Nujira's HAT High Accuracy Tracking technology that modulates the power supply to the RF power amplifier continuously in line with the transmission requirements.
About Nujira
Nujira's mission is to dramatically improve the energy efficiency of cellular network base stations and digital broadcast transmitters by reducing the amount of waste energy dissipated as heat in the RF Power Amplifier circuit. Nujira High Accuracy Tracking (HAT) Modulator technology dynamically controls the power supply to the circuit in line with the transmission performance required, enabling the creation of highly efficient RF Power Amplifiers for 3G and 4G cellular networks and DVB digital broadcast transmissions.
