Navitas drives Lenovo’s fast charger development

News
GaNFast chips enable Lenovo to make faster, lighter chargers

Navitas Semiconductor has announced that its GaNFast power ICs have been selected for Lenovo’s latest GaN technology chargers; the Xiaoxin 105 W GaN charger, and the Legion C 170 W GaN charger, respectively designed for daily travel and gaming power.

The Xiaoxin 105 W GaN charger is designed for daily travel. It outputs 105 W of power and is equipped with 3 ports (2C1A) supporting multiple protocols; easily achieving the charging needs of various devices simultaneously. Weighing 206 g, the 105 W fast-charger is 41 percent lighter than a typical 100 W computer adapter and takes only 34 minutes to charge the Xiaoxin 16 Pro to 50 percent. The Navitas NV6138 GaNFast power IC with GaNSense technology is at the heart of the high-frequency flyback topology design, providing a stable, durable, and efficient charging experience.

The Legion C170 W GaN charger is designed specifically for hardcore gamers. It delivers 170 W of continuous power through a single port to meet the high-power demands of gaming devices. At only 245 grams, it’s 78 percent lighter than Legion Y9000P’s original inbox charger and can charge up to 2 times faster than the Legion C140 W Charger. The Navitas NV6136 GaNFast power IC with GaNSense technology is used in the PFC stage, featuring loss-less current sensing and six times faster short-circuit protection than competing solutions, delivering cooler operation, superior efficiency, reliability, and power density.

"With the support of Navitas GaNFast power ICs, we have successfully introduced two new Xiaoxin and Legion GaN chargers to the market, enabling a lightweight and powerful charging experience for daily travel and gaming performance,” said Elon Chen, product manager of Consumer Business for Lenovo Group China. “Moreover, the successful application of Navitas’ GaNFast technology continuously reduces the size and weight of chargers, highly increasing efficiency, bringing convenience to consumers, while contributing to carbon reduction."

Lenovo’s long-term collaboration with Navitas has brought a series of fast chargers to the market and, according to Navitas, this has played a significant role in raising market awareness around the benefits of GaN technology.
