Note1 :
The adaptor of PE3.0 is capable of outputting CC (Constant Current) & CV (Constant Voltage) with fine resolution.
Note2 :
PE+2.0 & PE3.0 will co-exist in the market.
PE+2.0 – for micro-B/type-C connector & lower cost

Q&A

26
PE3.0 FAQ (1/3)
 Q: What is PE3.0?
– A: It’s charge technology routing charge current directly from Adaptor to Battery.
 Q: What is the advantage of PE3.0?
– A: Much better charge efficiency (95%+), making high charge current possible.
(Traditional high-voltage fast charge technology ~ 90%)
 Q: What is the required HW of PE3.0?
– (1) 3-6V/5A+ Adaptor with USB PD VDM capability
– (2) Smartphone with Type_C connector and USB PD VDM capability
– (3) 5A cable
– (4) A Battery with high Charge-Rate (C-rate).
• Example #1 : 5A charge current / 2500mAh battery = 2C (emerging)
• Example #2 : 5A charge current / 3333mAh battery = 1.5C (commercial available)
– (5) Low-impedance design, including connector, cable, switch for charge, PCB, battery.

27
PE3.0 FAQ (2/3)
 Q: How much does it cost?
– (1) In the long run, type-C is the standard. So, assuming you already have type-C 3A cable, you
just need to upgrade to 5A cable.
– (2) And, you must pay for adaptor with higher power (e.g. 15W  25W) & USB PD capability
– (3) Phone: no cost up
 Q: When is the mass production schedule of PE3.0?
– A: Ready for mass production
 Q: What is the target platform of PE3.0?
– Mediatek X-series and P-series. For middle-end, it’s by request.
 Q: Is PE3.0 safe?
– Over 20 protection mechanisms are designed for ensuring safety of PE3.0.

28
PE3.0 FAQ (3/3)
 Q: Can PE3.0 support communication via D+/D-?
– A: No, only USB PD
