SAN JOSE, Calif., Nov. 2, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. (IDT®) (NASDAQ: IDTI) today announced
a 15W wireless power chipset featuring a bi-directional
communication channel between the transmitter and receiver. The
communication channel enables customers to authenticate a
wirelessly-charged receiver device with a specific charging
transmitter base and to transfer data without any additional
hardware. This is the industry's first widely available 15W
solution offering proprietary pairing of transmit and receive
solutions for myriad wireless power applications.
The IDT® P9242-R3 and P9221-R3 are 15W wireless power
transmitter and receiver ICs, respectively, that are included on
the transmitter and receiver boards in the WP15WBD-RK Evaluation
Kit. In-band, bi-directional communication is achieved by
communicating signals between the wireless power coils using IDT's
embedded microprocessor technology combined with proprietary
algorithms – no additional coils, antennas, or components are
required.
"IDT continues to lead the wireless power semiconductor market
with the addition of value-added features that allow customers to
add more intelligence and differentiate their wireless power
systems," said Laurence McGarry,
Product Marketing Director of the Wireless Power Division at IDT.
"Charging base authentication has become an important requirement
for many of our customers who need control over their end-to-end
charging system. Our solution makes this easy to accomplish and
offers additional capabilities for improving user experience or
transferring data without the need for additional hardware."
The bi-directional evaluation kit adds bi-directional
communication to IDT's standard, WPC 1.2-compliant, 15W transmitter
P9242-R3 and receiver P9221-R3 evaluation kits without compromising
any existing features. The solution delivers industry-leading power
conversion efficiency of over 87% from transmitter input to
receiver output.
The WP15WBD-RK wireless power evaluation kit includes
easy-to-use reference boards and comprehensive design support
collateral – easing system integration and enabling immediate
prototyping. To learn more and request samples, visit
