Akoustis Technologies, Inc, an integrated device manufacturer (IDM) of patented bulk acoustic wave (BAW) high-band RF filters for mobile and other wireless applications, announced today two new bandedge RF filter products for Wi-Fi Automotive and Access Point applications. These filters are expected to ramp into production in the second half of calendar year 2024.
Akoustis’ new Wi-Fi/LTE coexistence BAW RF filters are designed specifically for the Wi-Fi 2.4 GHz band, covering channels 1 to 11. Leveraging XBAW® technology, these filters exhibit minimal insertion loss with ultra-steep skirts at the bandedge to extend Wi-Fi range and ensure coexistence with LTE band 7, 38, 40, and 41. Utilized in Wi-Fi routers, access points, extenders, mesh systems, mobile hotspots, ISM, and automotive, these filters offer high performance, robust power handling, and high out-of-band rejection. Additionally, the A10124 will be AEC-Q200 qualified for Automotive, providing reliable connectivity for vehicular applications. Both filters are housed in an ultra-small ceramic package measuring 1.1 x 0.9 mm.

Akoustis maintains its momentum with robust demand and an expanding sales pipeline for its XBAW filter products, in addition to its new XBAW®/SAW resonator and oscillator products, and semiconductor back-end services. The Company continues to secure new design wins in its target markets including Wi-Fi, 5G Infrastructure, Automotive and Defense, many of which are slated to ramp into production in the coming months.
Akoustis is a high-tech BAW RF filter solutions company that is pioneering next-generation materials science and MEMS wafer manufacturing to address the market requirements for improved RF filters — targeting higher bandwidth, higher operating frequencies and higher output power compared to legacy polycrystalline BAW technology. The Company utilizes its proprietary and patented XBAW® manufacturing process to produce bulk acoustic wave RF filters for mobile and other wireless markets, which facilitate signal acquisition and accelerate band performance between the antenna and digital back end. Superior performance is driven by the significant advances of poly-crystal, single-crystal, and other high purity piezoelectric materials and the resonator-filter process technology which enables optimal trade-offs between critical power, frequency and bandwidth performance specifications.
