Integrated Device Technology, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Renesas Electronics Corporation has announced that it is working with Qualcomm Technologies to develop highly integrated wireless charging solutions with up to 30W for use in flagship smartphones powered by Qualcomm Snapdragon 5G mobile platforms. This work was driven by the growing demand for high-speed wireless charging as a standard feature in smartphones.
Qualcomm Technologies' 5G mobile reference designs will help enable smartphone OEMs to quickly and cost-effectively implement fast wireless charging on flagship smartphones. The IDT solution helps expand the reach of wireless power technology to an even broader set of customers. Devices featuring the industry's first highly integrated 30W wireless power solution are expected to be commercially available in the first half of 2021.
IDT is the global leader in wireless power solutions for both the Power Receivers (PRx) used in smartphones and other applications, as well as the Power Transmitters (PTx) used in charging pads and automotive in-car applications.
