SAN JOSE, Calif., March 22, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. ® (IDT®) (NASDAQ: IDTI) today announced
that IDT and Samsung have teamed to deliver wireless charging for
the Galaxy S7, Samsung's newest feature-rich smartphone. The
market-leading IDT technology includes all of the hardware and
software needed to enable mobile devices to be charged without a
wired connection. Along with the Galaxy S7, IDT previously
announced that it had joined with Samsung to provide wireless
charging for the Galaxy S6 edge+ and Galaxy Note5 smartphones, as
well as the Samsung Gear S2 smartwatch charging pad.
"We continue to work closely with Samsung to help ensure the
company's consumer products deliver high-quality wireless charging
experiences," said Mario Montana,
IDT vice president and chief sales officer. "With the Galaxy S7,
Samsung again delivers many innovative features, including the
convenience of wireless charging via IDT's leading wireless power
technology."
The IDT wireless charging receiver used in the Galaxy S7
supports Samsung's fast charge mode, which enables users to charge
up to 1.4 times faster than normal charge mode, reducing full
charging time by about 50 minutes. The solution is also compatible
with Qi standard wireless charging pads. The chip's highly
integrated design offers high efficiency, and its flexible core
architecture optimizes performance and efficiency.
In addition to providing wireless power technology to global
leaders like Samsung, IDT has introduced wireless power kits that
enable electronics companies of any size to easily integrate
wireless charging capabilities into their product design.
