New PowerNap(TM) technology allows the user to quickly connect and charge USB-enabled handheld mobile devices without waking up the PC, and is also known as "sleep-and-charge" functionality. Pericom's PI5USB56 all-in-one USB PowerNap(TM) controller is the first of the PI5USB5X series with auto-detection and auto-switching support for mobile device charging, based on Pericom's new patent-pending PowerNap(TM) technology.
Additionally, with the PI5USB56 IC, system designers do not need to consider any software intervention requirements, since the IC supports automatic detection and switching. "Major OEMs are already implementing PowerNap(TM) solutions to support the sleep-and-charge features in their products," said Abdullah Raouf, Product Manager of USB Switch Solutions at Pericom.
"According to Gartner Group (April 2009), 150M mobile PCs will ship in 2010, with approximately 10% of this volume containing some type of added mobile device charging capability when USB enumeration is not available," said Raouf. "Our unique new charger IC can address most of these sockets and also offer the designer much value add to his notebook design with our PowerNap(TM) technology."
