Active-Semi® is proud to offer ActiveCharge™ IC solutions with Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 2.0 Certification for fast mobile charging applications. With battery life falling short of the ever-increasing demands of today’s smartphones, being able to quickly charge batteries is an essential alternative to increasing battery size. With the advent of Qualcomm® Quick Charge™ 2.0, available in all new Snapdragon 800 processors, it is possible to charge batteries in compatible mobile devices up to 75% faster than the conventional 5V/1A chargers. Active-Semi® ICs that support ActiveCharge™ can offer easy-to-use, highest performance and smallest BOM solutions to implement fast charging solutions such as:
- Car charger
- Car cigarette lighter adapter (CLA) chargers
- Wall adapter chargers
- Rechargeable portable devices
- Battery chargers for smartphones, tablets, and netbooks
- Digital cameras and bluetooth accessories
- USB power output ports
