About Renesas Wireless Power Receivers

Renesas wireless power receivers are the world’s highest power density devices and feature high levels of integration and high efficiency at light loads. They are well-suited for low-power applications such as earbud case charging and digital pens. A unique ping-detect feature gives an early indication of the wireless charger connection and improves thermal performance at the end of complete battery charging. Additionally, the integrated 32-bit processor offers a high level of programmability and design parameters that can be easily configured to work with small rod coils that fit into digital pens.

Renesas 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.
