The WT6632F is a highly integrated USB Power Delivery (PD) controller that supports USB PD 3.0 specification designed for USB Type-C Downstream Facing Port (Source) charging applications such as travel adapters, charger, and power banks. The WT6632F minimizes external components by integrating USB PD baseband PHY, Type-C detection, shunt regulator, voltage and current monitors, and control circuits of blocking MOSFET, and an 8-bit MCU to allow small form factor and low BOM cost. It supports wide operation voltage range from 3V to 30V without the need of an external LDO. A Multi-Time-Programmable (MTP) ROM is provided for program code and user configuration data.

III Conclusion


Continuing the premium fit and finish of Native Union, the Dock Wireless Charger is a top-notch dual-coil wireless charging dock. Meticulously crafted with three pieces of genuine Italian leather, it is satisfying to look at, and touch.Priced at $119.99, and doesn't even come with a charger (a PD or Quick Charge charger will do), the Drop is definitely not for those who are seeking the best cost-performance ratio. But for those who appreciate the originality of a design and would like to pay a premium for it, the Dock is a solid choice.


Pros:

Exquisite craftsmanship.

Elegant design and finish with high quality components.

10W wireless charging and USB-C input.


Cons:

Does not include a charger (a PD or Quick Charge charger will do).

Expensive.
