SAN JOSE, Calif., March 28, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Integrated
Device Technology, Inc. (IDT) (NASDAQ: IDTI), today launched
the WattShare™ family of wireless power semiconductors that enable
smartphones to wirelessly charge other mobile devices. IDT's new
wireless power ICs uniquely combine receiver and transmitter
capabilities, allowing smartphones, smartwatches, truly wireless
ear buds and other devices to be wirelessly charged simply by
placing them atop a smartphone.
"WattShare-enabled smartphones will free users from carrying a
variety of chargers and constantly looking for electrical outlets
to keep their smartwatches, ear buds and other devices charged,"
said Christopher Stephens, general
manager of IDT's Wireless Power Division. "WattShare is the latest
example of IDT's continued advancement of the state-of-the-art in
wireless charging technology and places the smartphone at the
