High-Performance Silicon Power Devices for USB Power Delivery in Phones, Laptops, Tablets & Consumer Devices

As batteries in smartphones, tablets, and laptops have grown larger, charging speed has become a critical user expectation. According to OnePlus, 43% of American consumers are frustrated with slow charging. And Android Authority found that fast charging is the feature users are least willing to give up — even over display or camera quality.

 

With the introduction of USB Power Delivery 3.1, output voltages have increased to 48V, with maximum power now reaching 240W — enabling true fast charging across a wide range of consumer devices.

The Power Delivery Challenge

To support this leap in voltage and power density, designers must reduce power losses in tight thermal envelopes – all while maintaining compact form factors and low BOM cost.

Legacy silicon MOSFETs struggle to meet the efficiency and switching demands of USB PD 3.1. As a result, GaN and SiC have entered the space, offering performance improvements, but at the cost of higher price points, supply-chain complexity, and design overhead.
