- Enables the Qi2 Magnetic Power Profile capability for convenient in-cabin wireless charging
- Compliant with the latest Qi standards, and qualified to automotive AEC-Q100 Grade 2
- Delivers significant bill of materials savings, simplifying implementation complexity and costs
indie Semiconductor (NASDAQ:INDI), an automotive solutions innovator, has announced iND87204, its next-generation, highly-integrated automotive wireless charging system-on-chip (SoC). Fully compliant with the Wireless Power Consortium's (WPC) Qi 2.0 technical standard, iND87204 also extends support to the new Magnetic Power Profile (MPP) feature - branded "Qi2" by the WPC - bringing an improved charging experience by magnetically aligning devices with inductive charger coils for more energy efficient, reliable and convenient charging. The SoC integrates multiple Arm Cortex processors for application and WPC stack processing, and all of the key in-vehicle serial interfaces, power management, DC-DC conversion, signal conditioning, WPC inverter drivers, power FETs and peripheral drivers to enable a fully Qi2-compliant wireless charging solution delivering up to 15 watts of power.
