European standards EN IEC 63563 Series adopting the International standards IEC 63563 provide a range of specifications to support full functionality, compatibility and interoperability of wireless power transfer systems based on the QI Specification version 2.0.
This series of EN and IEC standards support a wide range of issues associated with wireless power transfer to mobile phones, tablets or other multimedia systems and equipment. The core of these standards is the Qi Specification version 2.0, a critical benchmark for wireless power transfer. This specification, detailed in the EN IEC 63563 series, aims to ensure interoperability and safety across various wireless charging devices.
Key aspects include:
EN IEC 63563-1:2025 (Introduction) and EN IEC 63563-2:2025 (Glossary) provide foundational information, establishing a common understanding of terminology.
EN IEC 63563-3:2025 (Mechanical, Thermal, and User Interface) addresses physical design, heat management, and user interaction, crucial for product design and user experience.
EN IEC 63563-4:2025 (Power Delivery) and EN IEC 63563-5:2025 (Communications Physical Layer) define the core power transfer mechanisms and communication protocols, essential for efficient and reliable charging.
EN IEC 63563-6:2025 (Communications Protocol) furthers the communication specifications, ensuring seamless data exchange between charging devices.
EN IEC 63563-10:2025 (MPP System Specification) and EN IEC 63563-11:2025 (MPP Communications Protocol) detail the specifications for the Magnetic Power Profile, a critical part of the Qi 2.0 standard.
EN IEC 63563-8:2025 (NFC Tag Protection) and EN IEC 63563-9:2025 (Authentication Protocol) cover security aspects, including protection against unauthorized access and ensuring device authenticity, vital for consumer trust.
Furthermore, Foreign Object Detection (FOD) is a significant safety feature integrated into these standards, preventing overheating and damage caused by metallic objects placed within the charging field. This feature is critical for safety and product longevity.
In summary, the Qi Specification version 2.0, with its focus on power delivery, communication protocols, security, and safety features like FOD, is central to the advancement of wireless charging technology, and ensures full compatibility with international standards for QI Power transfer.
