Sivers Semiconductors AB announced that Fujikura, after several successful customer trials, is now preparing the start of full-scale, high-quality volume production of their 60 GHz communication module. Sivers Semiconductors and Fujikura have worked closely together for several years in a joint effort to offer this competitive 60 GHz communication module. Fujikura has developed a compact communication module including a baseband wireless modem function and an antenna with an included RF front end RFIC from Sivers Semiconductors (TRX BF/01).

This module developed by Fujikura is built on their own low loss liquid crystal polymer (LCP) material and Fujikura antenna design. As part of this project, Sivers Semiconductors and Fujikura are now also starting commercial negotiations to reach a long-term volume purchasing agreement, which is expected to be finalized during the autumn.
