BQ51013A Descripción general

The Texas Instruments BQ51013A is an integrated Qi-compliant (WPC 1.1) wireless power receiver IC that performs AC/DC power conversion in a 20-pin VQFN (3.5x4.5 mm, RHL) package. Per TI datasheet SLUSBA2, the device delivers a regulated 5V output from the receiver coil with up to 1.5 A output current and reaches 93% overall peak AC-DC efficiency, eliminating the need for a separate rectification stage plus LDO combination.

Qi wireless charging is a tightly-coupled inductive power transfer method standardized by the Wireless Power Consortium (WPC). A transmitter (TX) coil generates an alternating magnetic field at ~110-205 kHz, and a receiver (RX) coil coupled to that field induces an AC voltage which the receiver IC must rectify, regulate, and present as a clean DC rail. The BQ51013A integrates the full receiver signal chain: synchronous rectification, dynamic rectifier voltage control, communication demodulation, and a 5V LDO post-regulator, so engineers can power a load or feed a downstream charger with one part.

Key features include a built-in I2C interface for status reporting, dynamic power limiting (DPL) to handle thermal constraints, and foreign-object detection (FOD) compliance per the WPC Qi specification. The IC supports Qi 5W baseline power profiles and operates from the rectified coil voltage (RECT pin) up to 7V, with over-voltage, over-current, and thermal-shutdown protections. Communication back to the TX is handled through load modulation and a single-bit demodulator, providing the WPC-defined packets required for authentication and power control.

The architecture combines a full-bridge synchronous rectifier with a hysteretic-mode buck converter to produce the regulated 5V output. Adaptive rectifier voltage control keeps the rectifier just above the input to maximize efficiency across load and coupling variations, and the integrated 5V LDO with low-dropout performance ensures a low-noise rail for downstream ICs. FOD is implemented via Q-factor measurement of the resonant tank before and during power transfer, allowing the part to detect metal objects that would otherwise overheat.

Typical applications include Qi wireless charging pads for smartphones and wearables, medical-device charging cradles, low-power IoT charging stations, and any portable product requiring cable-free charging from a WPC-compliant transmitter. Design considerations include coil selection (the WPC A11/A6a coil is the most common reference design), thermal management of the receiver PCB, and proper I2C address configuration when multiple receivers share a bus.

Aplicaciones típicas

BQ51013A es adecuado para 6 aplicacións: Qi Wireless Charging Pad for Smartphones, Wearable Charging Cradle, Medical-Device Charging Station, Low-Power IoT Device Charging, Wireless-Powered LED Lighting, Automotive Qi Phone Charger.

📱

Qi Wireless Charging Pad for Smartphones

The BQ51013A's 93% peak AC-DC efficiency and integrated 5 V / 1.5 A regulation let it power a smartphone charging pad without a downstream LDO, eliminating 30+ mm of PCB area. Its Qi 1.1 compliance is interoperable with the vast installed base of WPC 1.1 transmitters (charging pads, power banks). The FOD algorithm detects metallic objects between coil and phone, an essential safety feature. Designers typically pair it with the TI bq500212A transmitter or third-party Qi TX coils and route the regulated 5 V output to a downstream battery charger.

⌚

Wearable Charging Cradle

Wearables like fitness bands and smartwatches benefit from the BQ51013A's 3.5x4.5 mm VQFN-20 (RHL) footprint, which fits inside small-diameter charging cradles. The integrated synchronous rectifier reduces thermal dissipation by ~30% compared to a discrete diode bridge + LDO, allowing sealed enclosures without ventilation. The 5 V output is fed directly to a low-current LDO or directly to the wearable's charge-management IC, and dynamic power limiting prevents the cradle from overheating during partial-coupling events.

💊

Medical-Device Charging Station

Medical carts and bedside monitoring devices use the BQ51013A because it provides an isolated, cable-free power interface that supports IEC 60601-1 collateral safety requirements when paired with reinforced insulation on the coil. The 93% efficiency keeps the receiver PCB under 40 C at 5 W, important for continuous-operation medical electronics. TI's EMI mitigation application notes guide designers on layout for EN 55011/CISPR 11 emissions compliance, and the I2C status interface can report charge faults to a host controller.

🧩

Low-Power IoT Device Charging

Industrial IoT sensors and smart-home devices gain cable-free commissioning and maintenance by integrating the BQ51013A into their dock or base station. The receiver's wide input tolerance (up to 7 V on RECT) handles coil-coupling variation across misaligned mounting positions, and the integrated OVP/OCP/OTP protects downstream MCU and radio modules from fault conditions. The 1.5 A capability supports simultaneous charging of the Li-ion cell and direct powering of sensors, eliminating a manual power path switch.

💡

Wireless-Powered LED Lighting

Furniture-integrated or under-cabinet LED lighting can be powered by the BQ51013A's regulated 5 V output, fed directly into an LED driver stage. The cable-free power delivery simplifies installation in locations where running wires is impractical (glass shelves, museum displays, kitchen islands). Dynamic power limiting keeps the receiver PCB temperature in check even when the LED load briefly pulls high in-rush currents, and the integrated LDO post-regulation produces clean DC that prevents flicker in constant-current LED strings.

🚗

Automotive Qi Phone Charger

Although the standard BQ51013A is Qi 1.1, it is still used in entry-level automotive console phone chargers where Qi 1.1 baseline compatibility suffices. Designers should refer to TI application notes on AEC-Q100-grade wireless power solutions for newer vehicles, but the BQ51013A's -40 C to +85 C operating range and integrated OVP/OCP/OTP cover the harsh automotive cabin temperature and load-dump environment when paired with upstream TVS protection. Output drives a downstream automotive-qualified charger IC.

What does the BQ51013A do?
The Texas Instruments BQ51013A is an integrated Qi-compliant (WPC 1.1) wireless power receiver IC that converts an AC signal from a receiving coil into a regulated 5 V DC output. According to TI datasheet SLUSBA2, it integrates synchronous rectification, buck conversion, and LDO regulation on a single die, delivering up to 1.5 A at 5 V with 93% peak AC-DC efficiency and eliminating the need for a separate LDO stage after the rectifier.
What is the maximum output current of the BQ51013A?
The BQ51013A is rated for up to 1.5 A output current at its regulated 5 V rail. This current limit, combined with the 93% peak AC-DC efficiency figure from the TI datasheet, supports Qi baseline 5 W power transfer with adequate thermal margin for portable-device charging applications.
What package does the BQ51013A use?
The BQ51013A ships in a 20-pin VQFN package with TI part suffix RHL and body dimensions of 3.5 mm x 4.5 mm with an exposed thermal pad. The same silicon is also available in a smaller 28-bump DSBGA package (suffix YFP) for space-constrained wearable designs where height and footprint matter more than PCB thermal copper area.
Is the BQ51013A Qi 1.2 compliant?
No. According to TI's E2E forum, the BQ51013A is certified to the WPC Qi 1.1 specification, while the BQ51013B is the Qi 1.2 version. The Qi 1.2 update added features such as resonant-coil support and FOD improvements; if those are needed for a new design, use the BQ51013B or a more recent TI wireless-power receiver such as the BQ51020.
What is the peak efficiency of the BQ51013A?
The BQ51013A achieves a peak AC-DC efficiency of 93% according to TI datasheet SLUSBA2. This high efficiency is enabled by synchronous rectification and adaptive rectifier voltage control that minimizes the diode-forward drop in the full-bridge path. The remaining loss is concentrated in the switching buck stage and the integrated LDO.

BQ51013A vs BQ51013B - which is better for a new design?
The BQ51013B is the better choice for new designs in 2026 because it is Qi 1.2 / 1.2.4 compliant with improved foreign-object detection and resonant-coil support, per TI's own forum guidance. The BQ51013A remains viable for legacy Qi 1.1 transmitters and pin-compatible drop-in replacements where the existing FW and TX are already Qi 1.1. Both share the VQFN-20 (RHL) footprint.
When should I choose BQ51013A over BQ51013B?
Choose the BQ51013A only when you must interface with a Qi 1.1-only transmitter, or when cost-sensitive legacy products require the older silicon's proven firmware stack. For all new product introductions targeting Qi 1.2 or later, the BQ51013B or a more recent TI receiver like the BQ51020 (WPC 1.2.4) is the recommended path. Both share the VQFN-20 RHL pinout, so a board can be built with either.
What is the best drop-in replacement for BQ51013A?
The TI BQ51013B is the closest drop-in replacement for the BQ51013A, sharing the same VQFN-20 (RHL) pinout, 5 V/1.5 A output, and 93% peak efficiency while adding Qi 1.2 compliance. The BQ51013B is therefore both functionally and parametrically identical for most board designs. For higher output current or newer Qi revisions, evaluate the BQ51020 as an engineering upgrade rather than a direct replacement.
Can BQ51013B replace BQ51013A directly?
Yes - the BQ51013B is pin-to-pin compatible with the BQ51013A in the VQFN-20 (RHL) package. According to TI E2E forum responses, the two parts share the same silicon block for rectification and regulation, with the BQ51013B adding Qi 1.2 firmware and improved FOD algorithms. For most applications this is a safe board-level substitution, though firmware should be retested for Qi-logo certification.

Guía de selección

Choose the BQ51013A when you need a proven Qi 1.1 wireless power receiver for legacy transmitters, or when you need a drop-in replacement on an existing VQFN-20 (RHL) PCB layout. For new designs targeting Qi 1.2 or later, the BQ51013B (Qi 1.2) or BQ51020 (Qi 1.2.4) is the better long-term choice, since both are pin-compatible with the BQ51013A. If you need a smaller-footprint solution, the BQ51013AYFPR (DSBGA-28) is the same silicon in a chip-scale package, but it requires PCB redesign. For non-TI alternatives, evaluate IDT/PwR/Analog Devices wireless power receivers only after confirming Qi version and pin compatibility.

Notas de diseño

Route the receiver coil traces on the top layer with the BQ51013A placed as close as possible to the coil to minimize parasitic inductance on RECT, AC1, and AC2 nodes. Use a 4-layer stack-up with a continuous ground plane beneath the coil area to contain radiated magnetic flux and meet EN 55011/CISPR 11 EMI limits. Place the COMM modulation capacitor and FOD capacitor as close to their respective pins as datasheet figure references indicate.

At full 5 W load the BQ51013A dissipates approximately 350 mW (7% loss from 93% efficiency). On the VQFN-20 RHL package with its exposed thermal pad, ensure at least 100 mm^2 of 2 oz copper on the top and bottom layers tied to the EPAD to keep junction temperature below 100 C at 25 C ambient. In enclosed plastic enclosures with no airflow, derate the output current to 1.2 A or add thermal vias to a copper inner layer.

Do not exceed 7 V on the RECT pin - add a TVS diode (e.g., SMAJ6.5CA) at the coil input to clamp load-dump transients from miscoupled transmitters. I2C pull-ups (4.7 kohm to VCC) are required on SCL and SDA for proper communication; missing pull-ups cause intermittent host controller reads. Finally, ensure the receiver coil matches the WPC A11 reference (or approved equivalent) - non-Qi-compliant coils will not negotiate power with the transmitter.
