The ready-to-integrate wireless charging module is intended for the powering and charging of industrial machinery, autonomous mobile robots, automated guided vehicles, light electric vehicles, e-Mobility and other power-intensive applications.
The Yeti 500W industrial wireless charging module features high power capability, delivering up to 500 W of power for efficient and fast charging. It also boasts the industry’s highest efficiency of over 95 percent. This not only reduces power losses, but also facilitates thermal management, improving overall performance and durability.
The Yeti 500W also offers an exceptional misalignment tolerance of over 40 mm in all directions. As a result, reliable charging is ensured even if the orientation is not perfectly accurate. In addition, the module is widely compatible and can charge all common battery types and voltages.
As a result of this versatility, it’s suitable for a wide range of industrial applications, offering convenience and adaptability.
The Yeti 500W incorporates advanced features to ensure robust and safe operation. These include over-voltage and over-current protection to protect both the charger and connected equipment from potential damage or hazards. Furthermore, the Yeti 500W is designed for easy integration into existing industrial systems, enabling fast time-to-market for companies looking to expand their charging infrastructure without significant disruption.
“We are excited to partner with Spark Connected and provide differentiated Bluetooth Low Energy microcontrollers and highly-efficient power devices for their latest Yeti 500W industrial wireless charging module,” said Tony Antonacci, Senior Director Applications Marketing at Infineon Technologies. “The Yeti represents a step forward in charging power and integration, enabling industries to improve their operations and move towards an energy-efficient wire-free future.”
“Combining Spark’s disruptive wireless power technology with Infineon’s broad semiconductor portfolio, we are empowering industries to embrace the full potential of wireless charging, enabling truly autonomous systems and revolutionising the way they operate,” said Ruwanga Dassanayake, COO of Spark Connected. “This production-grade module provides unparalleled efficiency and convenience, which we believe will usher in a new era of innovation and productivity to our customers.”
The Yeti 500W integrates Infineon’s dual-core PSoC 63 Bluetooth Low Energy MCU for intelligent control, and the company’s CoolGaN products for improved efficiency and reduced EMI. By eliminating the need for physical connectors and cables, this wireless charging system enables seamless and flexible charging, enhancing efficiency, productivity, and safety in industrial settings.
The Yeti 500W industrial wireless charging module is available for customer sampling in Q3 2023.
