  • Includes first 5G device
  • Doubles the number of devices accepted by customers announced at the beginning of 2018

GOLETA, Calif., Jan. 02, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Resonant Inc. (NASDAQ: RESN), a leader in transforming the way radio frequency, or RF, front-ends are being designed and delivered for mobile handset and wireless devices, exceeded its end of 2018 milestone of 20 devices accepted by customers as meeting their expectations, up from more than 10 devices announced at the beginning of 2018. Included in these accepted devices is the company’s first ever 5G device. The complexity of filter designs continues to rise as the mobile market moves toward 5G where increasing bandwidth for high data-rate services is critical.

These devices include a quadplexer, as well as other high value, difficult filters. The devices qualified are targeted for the China and India markets, as well as Tier 1 phone OEMs, with a worldwide presence.

“With more than 20 devices currently accepted by customers as meeting their expectations, we have exceeded a key milestone we set for ourselves at the start of 2018,” stated George B. Holmes, CEO of Resonant. “Especially exciting is the first 5G device our company has now had accepted by a customer, as the mobile market overall transitions to 5G. We are entering the new year with building momentum, and we plan to capitalize on our newly introduced Filter IP Standard Library which we believe will help drive accelerating royalty revenue growth in the future.”

About Resonant’s ISN Technology
Resonant can create designs for difficult bands, modules and other complex RF Front End requirements that we believe have the potential to be manufactured for half the cost and developed in half the time of traditional approaches. ISN is a suite of proprietary mathematical methods, software design tools and network synthesis techniques that enable us to explore a much larger set of possible design solutions that regularly incorporate our proprietary technology. We then quickly deliver design simulations to our customers, which they manufacture or have manufactured by one of our foundry partners. These improved solutions still use Surface Acoustic Wave (SAW) or Temperature Compensated Surface Acoustic Wave (TC-SAW) manufacturing methods and perform as well as those using higher cost manufacturing methods such as Bulk Acoustic Wave (BAW). Resonant’s method delivers excellent predictability, enabling achievement of the desired product performance in roughly half as many turns through the fab. In addition, because Resonant’s models are fundamental, integration with its foundry and fab customers is seamless because its models speak the “fab language” of basic material properties and dimensions.
