New WattUp chipsets from RF wireless charging company Energous and its manufacturing partner and investor Dialog Semiconductor will enable Energous to bring wireless charging to consumers “on a massive scale,” said CEO Stephen Rizzone in a CES announcement Monday. New chipsets include a beamforming IC, the DA1210, and the DA3210 power amplifier IC. The company also updated the DA4100 transmitter IC and the DA2210 to support the 900 MHz frequency band to complete WattUp near-field and recently certified power-at-a-distance mid-field wireless charging systems, it said. Dialog is exclusive distributor of the chipsets.
