Faster charging is becoming increasingly important as more powerful devices are released. To support this, Qualcomm Technologies' power management integrated circuits (PMICs) have optimized charging architectures within mobile devices by leveraging fast charging technologies.
Lattice offers ICs for power adapters to ensure proper communication with the PMIC used in mobile devices. The LIF-UC device family offers flexible programming, allowing customers to differentiate themselves and future-proof their designs. With firmware updates for Lattice solutions, engineers can quickly transition between different generations of charging specifications, including Quick Charge, Battery Charging, and Power Delivery, over standards such as USB Type-C.
Lattice's programmable charge controller is fully compliant with the USB Power Delivery v2.0 specification and, when combined with Qualcomm Technologies' Quick Charge technology, provides a flexible solution that reduces the time required to recharge mobile device batteries. Today, Quick Charge 2.0 is specified in smartphones, tablets, and wall adapters available from various manufacturers worldwide. Quick Charge 3.0 is designed to charge devices up to four times faster than conventional technologies.
