Wireless charging: evaluating the standards for next-gen products

摘要

Wireless charging is evolving to become a feature that users of smartphones, tablets, notebooks, and wearables are coming to expect as a basic product capability. One remaining challenge is that, while these devices don't all have the same power requirements, users want to limit the number of wireless charging stations they need — ideally, to just one. And among the factors to be considered in developing a single-station solution are the various standards that have emerged. This article looks at these competing standards and the optimum combination of standard and technology.
