STEVAL-WBC2TX70 wireless power transmitter evaluation board
Introduction
The
STEVAL-WBC2TX70
evaluation board, based on the STWBC2 integrated circuit (IC), is designed for wireless power
transmitter applications and allows its user to quickly start their 5 W Qi BPP, 15 W Qi EPP or 70 W STSC wireless charging
projects.
The STWBC2 wireless transmitter IC can deliver the following power transfer levels of inductive wireless power technology:
•
Up to 5 W charging power compatible with Qi 1.3 Baseline Power Profile (BPP)
•
Up to 15 W charging power compatible with Qi 1.3 Extended Power Profile (EPP)
•
Up to 70 W charging power using the STSC Profile
The BPP and EPP are specified by the Wireless Power Consortium's Qi specification.
The evaluation board is designed to operate with 5-20 V input voltage or with a USB PD power adapter.
Two interfaces are open to the user: UART for monitoring and control via
and SWD JTAG for direct NVM access. Both interfaces are accessible via the STLINK-V3MINIE bridge.
The
STEVAL-WBC2TX70
includes several safety mechanisms providing over temperature (OTP), overcurrent (OCP),
overpower (OPP), overvoltage (OVP) and Vin drop protections as well as foreign object detection (FOD) for reliable designs.

UM3286 Overview of the board Overview of the board STEVAL-WBC2TX70 evaluation board is optimized for performance. The board features: • STWBC2 wireless power transmitter chip • Optimized BOM and PCB space • On board full bridge inverter • 32-bit, 64 MHz Arm® Cortex® M0+ microcontroller with 32 KB SRAM •... - Page 5 UM3286 Overview of the board • For runtime firmware updates, configuration, and diagnostics, the UART is sufficient. If the FW is corrupted (for example because of power loss during firmware load), the UART is not available and SWD interface needs to be used. The SWD interface also provides higher transfer speed than UART. These two interfaces are intended for development and debugging.

Page 15: Figure 6. Ask Modulation
UM3286 Device description and operation Figure 6. ASK modulation Figure 7. ASK timing The power receiver uses a differential biphase encoding scheme to modulate the data bits onto the power signal. The STWBC2 monitors ring voltage, current, and phase, filters out the carrier wave, and demodulates the signal. The communication itself is carried out via packets. -
Page 16: Fsk Communication
UM3286 Device description and operation To transmit a single byte of data, the power receiver must send an 11-bit sequence. This sequence consists of a START bit (ZERO), the 8 data bits of the byte (LSB first), a parity bit and a STOP bit (ONE). The parity is odd, meaning an even number of ONE bits in the data byte results in the parity bit being equal to ONE, while an odd number of ONE bits in the data byte results in the parity bit being equal to ZERO. -
