Freescale introduces 15W wireless charging solution

Freescale has broadened its wireless charging portfolio with the a 15W device which is Qi compliant. The part is said to pave the way for 'ultra fast' wireless recharging for larger mobile devices, including tablets, large screen smartphones and portable industrial and medical equipment. 

"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," said Denis Cabrol, director of global marketing and business development for Freescale's MCU group. "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." 

The solution includes two 15W ICs: the WPR1516 receiver chip and MWCT1012 transmitter. 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 application programming interface that can be used to modify or adjust library functionality, allowing for the addition of custom application code and a differentiated end-product. 

According to the company, the chips will allow a typical tablet with a 4000 mAh battery to be charged 'in a few hours, rather that the eight hours required to charge from a standard USB port.
