Hello

The BQ51013C is a 5W BPP device, (5V at 1A). WPC standard 2.0 has been replaced by WPC 2.1, cannot certify to 2.0 any longer.  Devices can still be certified to WPC 1.3.

Will you certify you units to WPC standard?

Hi

No, We will not cerify to the standards. Only thing I must be sure of is that since the standard is now WPC2.xx.xx I must be sure that before I go to mass production of our new charger design based on BQ51013C it SHALL function with all new WPC2.xx.xx and BPP protocol. I can not approve a design whcih may not work.

From the wireless power consotrium it states:

Qi specifications are numbered with three digits: X.Y.Z. For example 1.0.3

• X is called the major revision number. Specifications with the same major revision number are backward and forward compatible.
• Y is called the minor revision number. A change in minor revision number implies that new requirements are introduced while maintaining backward compatibility previously certified products
• Z is called the editorial revision number. Editorial revisions include clarifications, integrate new transmitter designs into one document (version 1.x series only), and may add new test to the test specifications.

Since going from WPC 1 to WPC 2 it cannot guarantee backward compability and I need my product to be able to charge on any QI2 charger I buy as a COTS product in the supermarket. That was the reason I choose the BQ51013C IC. But when I read the STANDARD it seems like the BPP protocol profile is unchagned, it SHALL work?
