“The wireless power ecosystem is growing at breakneck speed as wireless
charging gets closer to becoming a standard rather than a premium
feature,” said Arman Naghavi, IDT’s vice president of Analog Power
Technology. “At IDT, we have been working closely with leading
innovators to deliver on the promise of wireless charging, integrating
our chips into smartphones, wearables—even furniture—to make our
portable devices easier to charge and more convenient to use.”
“IHS believes 2015 is proving to be a breakthrough year for wireless
power as the number of applications featuring wireless charging
increases dramatically,” said David Green, research manager for business
information provider IHS. “We estimate 55 million receivers shipped in
2014, and that number will jump to almost 1.1 billion in 2018 and nearly
2.3 billion in 2024. So what we’re seeing now is just the tip of the
iceberg.”
Part of IDT’s industry-leading wireless power portfolio, the P9025A is a
fully integrated, single-chip wireless power receiver that can support
PMA, Qi or dual-mode charging. It utilizes a high-efficiency low-dropout
regulator (LDO)-based architecture to minimize component count. In
addition, its optimized control logic minimizes power losses to ensure
efficient power delivery to the load. The space- and cost-optimized
wireless power receivers are ideal for wireless handsets, cell phone
sleeves, and tablets.
