The DA9318 series delivers 98% efficiency in fast-charging applications, minimizing heat dissipation A crucial advantage of the DA9318 series is its outstanding high efficiency of up to 98 percent, minimizing power and heat dissipation, making compact consumer applications safer. Unlike existing direct charging topologies, which use low voltage and force the full charging current to run over the cable, the converters high efficiency allows for a 6 A charging current to be achieved over a standard 3 A USB cable. This simultaneously doubles power and drastically reduces costs by up to 35 percent for fast-charging applications. There are two variants of the product, the DA9318L provides up to 8 A and the DA9318M variant provides up to 10 A charging current to support 35 W and 44 W of charging power, respectively. The innovative, patent-pending concept is the first of its kind in the marketplace, and is well-suited to address the design challenges associated with the increased capacity batteries seen in today's smart devices. With batteries in smartphones approaching upwards of 4,000 mAh to provide longer battery life for greater computing power, manufacturers are increasingly looking for advanced solutions to deliver efficient, safe fast charging with low heat dissipation. The DA9318 variants include comprehensive safety and protection features to guarantee end-to-end system safety, from the travel adapter to the smartphone battery. |
