Freescale launches 15 Watt Qi-compliant wireless charging solution
Freescale Semiconductor has extended its wireless charging portfolio by introducing the industry’s first 15 W Qi-compliant wireless charging solution. The solution paves the way for ultra-fast wireless recharging for a variety of larger mobile devices including tablets, large-screen smartphones and portable industrial and medical equipment.
Delivering 3x the power of common 5 W charging solutions, Freescale’s 15 W wireless offering provides efficient charging of larger form-factor devices with higher capacity batteries, while enabling faster charging of smaller form-factor devices by delivering higher power. For example, a typical tablet with a 4000mAh battery might take over eight hours to charge from a standard USB port, while Freescale’s solution could reduce this charge time dramatically to just a few hours.
Freescale’s new 15 W portfolio includes transmit and receive ICs complemented with flexible enablement technologies to speed the creation of wireless charging systems. Additionally, the new solution supports several major industry standards, including the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) and the Power Matters Alliance (PMA).
“Today’s mobile products offer a broader range of features, functionality and form-factors than ever before, requiring developers of wireless charging systems to accommodate larger batteries and enable faster recharge speeds. Freescale’s industry-first 15 W solution is engineered to address these evolving market requirements, while helping to streamline product development and unleash design creativity,” said Denis Cabrol, Director of Global Marketing and Business Development for Freescale’s MCU Group.
This targeted solution includes two 15 W ICs: the WPR1516 receiver chip and accompanying MWCT1012 transmitter chip. Developers can get to production quickly by using available corresponding firmware libraries, which provide the core functionality required to implement state-of-the-art wireless charging systems. The solution also includes an advanced application programming interface that can be utilized to modify or adjust library functionality, allowing for the addition of custom application code and a highly tailored and differentiated end-product.
