Wireless charging isn’t as ubiquitous as we’d want it to be, largely because of extremely fragmented standards. There are different companies that provide the technologies, including Qi, PMA, and Rezence, and there is no indication which one will last. Broadcom has found a solution for that with a new chip its introducing. The BCM59350 is designed to charge your devices using any of these existing wireless technologies. The chip also supports up to 7.5W of power (instead of the usual 5W), which means it can charge your devices faster, too.
Broadcom has kept mum about which manufacturers plan to use the chip and when it will be available out on the market. We can just hope it comes out real soon to help make charging an even more painless process.
