Efficient solution delivers high power and fast-charge wireless charging

Texas Instruments has introduced a WPC v1.2 Qi-certified 15W wireless power transmitter, claimed to be the world’s first. The bq501210 enables 84 percent system efficiency with significantly less thermal dissipation than traditional wireless power devices. The transmitter supports multiple fast-charging protocols and offers an array of flexible and customisable features such as personal electronics, medical and space-constrained industrial applications. Industrial end equipment such as electronic point-of-sale devices and handheld medical equipment reap the benefits of 15W wireless power. This breakthrough in technology enables connectorless models and reduces overall end-application size by helping eliminate the need for bulky wiring.
