Overview
Description
The PTX30W is an efficient single-chip NFC Receiver for NFC wireless charging applications including bi-directional data transfer. The PTX30W is a highly integrated solution for NFC-based wireless charging systems combining power harvesting, wireless power negotiation, and charging of a Lithium-Ion battery in a single chip.
The integration reduces the required number of external components. Combined with its RF performance it is well suited for integration into space constrained devices enabling fast charging and maximum flexibility in the system design.

PTX30W - Termination Current Configuration with the 22mAh Battery
Hi, I am currently developing a charging system using the PTX30W and PTX130, in combination with a 22 mAh Li-ion rechargeable battery. According to common charging guidelines, the recommended termination current (ITERM) for a battery of this capacity is approximately 0.05C to 0.1C, which corresponds to 1 ...

PTX30W Shipping Mode
I'm in the process of bringing up custom hardware with a PTX30W and host MCU and I'm having issues putting the PTX30W in shipping mode.I can read device information (via ptx30w_GetDeviceInformation()) and status (via ptx30w_GetSystemStatus()) so I conclude the communication interface is working. I was ...
