This Wireless Power Consortium (WPC) has provided a standard for wireless mobile devices Chargers finished. In a statement it was said that there had been agreement in three key areas of "Qi-Low-Power" standards, based on induction technology. The standard could theoretically end the days when you needed for each mobile device has its own charging station.ACER AS09D34 Battery

The three areas where the consortium members have agreed are: the interface definition, which describes the requirements of the power transmission between the transmitter and receiver, the performance requirements and test procedures for compliance with the standards.VGP-BPS8 Battery

The interface specifications had been already passed on to members of the consortium, they say. On 30 August they will be published. According to consortium members only get the other parts of the standards to be seen. The publication of the standard means that manufacturers can begin with the development and production of Qi-compatible devices. However, each of these devices to be certified before it is standards compliant.VGP-BPS13 battery

"We have everything ready, what is needed to produce products with the Qi logo to certify and distribute. To the Qi standard is itself, ie the technical specification, test procedures, certification services and the Logo License, about which one the right to use the logo gets, "said a spokesman for WPC ZDNet.

Compatible devices will carry a logo with the Qi, the Chinese character for "energy". The Qi-induction system uses a proprietary technology such as PDAs Touchstone chargers. Qi devices are transmitted inductively to five watts of power.ACER TM00741 Battery

To set a Qi-compatible product, such as a mobile phone, a charger, the station is activated and communicates with the mobile phone. The type of the issued equipment and its performance arises. Then starts charging, and mobile phone charging station and exchange further control data. If the empty cradle or charging the phone, the station goes into a sleep mode.Dell E5510 Battery

The WPC has 27 members. Among them HTC, Nokia, LG, Research in Motion and Samsung are. Even Duracell, Olympus, Philips and Texas Instruments are in the WPC. The consortium has focused on standards for devices that absorb less power than five watts, such as mobile phones and MP3 players. In the future we will also deal with charging stations for power-hungry devices.DELL Latitude E6400 Battery
