• Ref Project: prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 - Qi specification - Version 2.3 - Part 3: Power delivery (Fast Track)

oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 is the Slovenian draft adoption of IEC 63758-3:2026, Qi specification - Version 2.3 - Part 3: Power delivery (Fast Track). It sets out guidelines and requirements for Qi wireless power delivery, mainly for Power Receiver design, and also covers Power Transmitter control, efficiency, protection, and test methods. Engineers, quality teams, and test labs use it to design and verify wireless charging products and fixtures.

What does oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 specify?

oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 specifies the power-delivery part of the Qi Specification. Its scope covers Power Receiver design, including circuitry, power consumption, operating power levels, power transfer efficiency, and standby power, and the document also develops the related Power Transmitter behavior and verification methods.

The document is organized into general rules, an introduction and system model, Power Receiver construction, design guidelines, Power Transmitter construction, power consumption, meaningful functionality, susceptibility to unintentional magnetic fields, load-step behavior, over-voltage protection, external power input, power levels, system efficiency, stand-by power, object detection, and Power Receiver localization. Clause 1 sets the common notation and compliance rules that apply throughout the document, so readers know how to interpret packets, values, and requirement wording.

What are the key requirements of oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026?

oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 puts most of its practical burden on the Power Receiver design, then defines how the Power Transmitter must control current and limit voltage. In practice, it tells product teams what the receiver must contain, how the transmitter must react, and how to check both sides during testing.

Power Receiver construction is defined in Clause 3

A Power Receiver design shall include a dual resonant circuit, a rectification circuit, sensing circuits, a communications modulator, and an output disconnect switch. For the Extended Power Profile, it shall also include a communications demodulator and shall be able to function meaningfully even when transmitter restrictions limit output to 5 W.

That matters because the receiver is not just a coil and rectifier - it must also sense its own voltage, communicate back to the transmitter, and disconnect its output when needed. Designers therefore need enough control electronics and switching behavior to support both charging and protocol handling.

The dual resonant circuit has defined tuning behavior

Clause 3.1 requires two resonant frequencies for the dual resonant circuit and sets the tolerance band according to the Power Receiver power level. The loop quality factor Q shall exceed 77, and any optional switch in the circuit has to stay closed until the receiver sends its first Packet.

This means coil and capacitor selection is not free-form. The receiver has to be tuned carefully, and the resonance has to remain stable enough to work under the intended operating conditions.

Rectification, sensing, modulation, and disconnect behavior are specific

Clause 3.2 requires full-wave rectification, Clause 3.3 requires sensing of the DC voltage directly at the rectifier output, and Clause 3.4 requires the ability to modulate Primary Cell current and voltage. Clause 3.5 adds frequency-shift keying (FSK) demodulation for the Extended Power Profile, and Clause 3.6 requires the output disconnect to keep the output isolated until the first power-transfer phase after a Digital Ping.

In practice, the receiver must both harvest power and communicate on the same wireless link. The output disconnect prevents unwanted back-feed and helps control startup behavior, which is important for safety and for protocol timing.

The transmitter uses closed-loop current control

Clause 5.2 defines a discrete proportional-integral-differential (PID) algorithm for Power Transmitter control. The transmitter shall use Control Error Packets to update Primary Cell current, apply the calculated change within a specified time window, and keep the iteration timing within the stated bounds.

This matters because wireless charging here is not open-loop. The transmitter has to react to receiver feedback and adjust its operating point quickly and in a controlled way, or the receiver will not hold the requested operating condition.

Over-voltage protection is a system requirement

Clause 10 requires the Power Transmitter to limit the amplitude of its Power Signal, or magnetic field strength, so that a properly designed Power Receiver does not generate more than 20 V rectified at its output. The clause also explains why a power-dependent current limit is preferable to a fixed hard limit.

For implementers, this means voltage protection is primarily a transmitter-side system behavior, not just a receiver-side clamp. Product teams have to consider coupling changes, alignment shifts, and load changes together when setting current limits.

Power levels and light-load behavior are defined for Extended Power Profile

Clause 12 says Extended Power Profile designs can support Potential Load Power up to 15 W. It also requires the transmitter to sustain light load operation at 5% of the Maximum Power in the Power Transfer Contract, with a minimum of 250 mW.

That is important for devices that spend time near full charge or in standby. The transmitter still has to keep the link alive at low load without dropping the negotiated contract.

Load steps, load dumps, and meaningful functionality are part of system behavior

Clauses 7 and 9 address what happens when the load changes suddenly. The receiver shall still function meaningfully if it cannot negotiate its intended Guaranteed Load Power, and the load-step and load-dump procedures show how transmitter response is checked under abrupt changes.

This is important in real products because batteries and power-management circuits can change load quickly. The standard therefore looks at how well the link keeps regulation through transients, not only at steady state.

What terms does oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 define?

• Power Signal - the alternating magnetic field used for wireless power transfer.
• Power Transmitter - a subsystem that generates a Power Signal.
• Power Receiver - a subsystem that extracts electric power from a Power Signal.
• PowerTransmitterProduct - a device that contains one or more Power Transmitters.
• PowerReceiverProduct - a device that contains a Power Receiver.
• Control Error Packet - a packet that carries the feedback used by the transmitter to adjust its Primary Cell current.
• LoadPower - the power dissipated in the load connected to the Power Receiver output.
• TransmittedPower - power from the Power Signal that is dissipated by objects not integral to the Power Transmitter Product.

Who uses oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026?

oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 is used by wireless power designers, hardware engineers, firmware developers, and test engineers working on Qi equipment. It is also relevant to quality managers and buyers who need to confirm that a Power Receiver or Power Transmitter matches the Qi power-delivery behavior.

The document is especially relevant to products such as flat-surface wireless chargers and mobile devices, where alignment, load control, efficiency, and over-voltage behavior matter in day-to-day use. Test labs use it for design verification and conformance-related measurements, while product teams use it to choose circuit architecture, control strategy, and protection margins.

Which standards are used with oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026?

• Qi Specification, Communications Protocol - defines packet exchange, Digital Ping, Control Error Packets, and the power-transfer phases referenced throughout this part.
• Qi Specification, Communications Physical Layer - defines the physical-layer signaling used for modulation and FSK demodulation.
• Qi Specification, Mechanical, Thermal, and User Interface - provides mechanical context such as coil assembly diagrams and interface-related guidance.

• Qi Specification, PowerTransmitterReferenceDesigns - gives reference transmitter designs and the design values used for control behavior.
• ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 - governs the wording of requirements, recommendations, permissions, and capabilities.

What does the oSIST prEN IEC 63758-3:2026 document contain?

The document contains requirement text, informative guidance, figures, formulas, and test procedures that are used for design and verification. Clause 1 explains structure, compliance wording, numeric notation, data-packet fields, text-string storage, and shorthand packet notation, while Clause 2 introduces the wireless power system model and the core terms.

Later clauses include functional block diagrams for Baseline and Extended Power Profile receivers, a large-signal resonance check, coil-design relations, and the discrete PID control method for transmitters. The document also includes load-step and load-dump procedures with timing diagrams and limit tables, recommended system-efficiency tables, stand-by power measurement methods, analogue ping examples, and localization examples with detection-coil layouts. Those materials support engineering design, laboratory testing, and internal audits of Qi wireless power products.

Figure3-FunctionalblockdiagramforaBaselinePowerProfilePowerReceiver
In this example, the Power Receiver consists of a Power Pick-up Unit and a Communications and Control Unit. The
Power Pick-up Unit on the left-hand side of Figure 3 comprises the analogue components of the Power Receiver:
l
A dual resonant circuit consisting of a Secondary Coil plus series and parallel capacitances to enhance the power
transfer efficiency and enable a resonant detection method (seeSection3.1,Dualresonantcircuit ).
l
A rectification circuit that provides full-wave rectification of the AC waveform using, for example, four diodes in a
full-bridge configuration or a suitable configuration of active components (seeSection3.2,Rectificationcircuit ).
The rectification circuit may perform output smoothing as well. In this example, the rectification circuit provides
power to both the Communications and Control Unit of the Power Receiver and the output of the Power Receiver.
A communications modulator (seeSection3.4,Communicationsmodulator ). On the DC side of the Power Receiver, the
communications modulator typically consists of a resistor in series with a switch. On the AC side of the Power Receiver,
the communications modulator typically consists of a capacitor in series with a switch (not shown in Figure 3).
An output disconnect switch, which prevents current from flowing to the output when the Power Receiver does not
provide power at its output. In addition, the output disconnect switch prevents current back flow into the Power
Receiver when the Power Receiver does not provide power at its output. Moreover, the output disconnect switch

minimizes the power that the Power Receiver draws from the Power Transmitter when a Power Signal is first applied to
the Secondary Coil.
A rectified voltage sense.
The Communications and Control Unit on the right-hand side of Figure 3 comprises the digital logic part of the Power
Receiver. This unit executes the relevant power control algorithms and protocols, drives the communications modulator,
controls the output disconnect switch, and monitors several sensing circuits in both the Power Pick-up Unit and the
load. (A good example of a sensing circuit in the load is a circuit that measures the temperature of a rechargeable
battery.)
NOTE: This version of the Specification minimizes the set of Power Receiver design requirements defined in this section. Accordingly,
compliant Power Receiver designs that differ from the sample functional block diagram shown in Figure 3 are possible. For
example, an alternative design includes post-regulation of the output of the rectification circuit (e.g., by using a buck
converter, battery charging circuit, power management unit, etc.). In yet another design, the Communications and Control Unit
interfaces with other subsystems of the Power Receiver Product, e.g. for user interface purposes.
Figure 4 illustrates an example of a functional block diagram for an Extended Power Profile Power Receiver. The
communications demodulator enables the communication of data from the Power Transmitter to an Extended Power
Profile Power Receiver. The presence of a communications demodulator is the only difference with the functional block
diagram of a Baseline Power Profile Power Receiver.

Power Pick-up Unit components are described in the subsections below.

A Power Receiver design shall include a dual resonant circuit as defined inSection3.1,Dualresonantcircuit , a
rectification circuit as defined inSection3.2,Rectificationcircuit , sensing circuits as defined inSection3.3,Sensing
circuits , a communications modulator as defined inSection3.4,Communicationsmodulator , and an output disconnect
switch as defined inSection3.6,Outputdisconnect .
A Power Receiver design for the Extended Power Profile shall also include a communications demodulator as defined in
Section3.5,Communicationsdemodulator , and shall be able to function meaningfully if the Power Transmitter
restrictions limit the output of power from the Power Receiver to 5 W; seeSection3.7,Shielding .
3.1 Dualresonantcircuit
The dual resonant circuit of the Power Receiver comprises the Secondary Coil and two resonant capacitances. The
purpose of the first resonant capacitance is to enhance the power transfer efficiency. The purpose of the second
resonant capacitance is to enable a resonant detection of the receiver position on some Power Transmitter designs.
Figure 5 illustrates the dual resonant circuit. The switch in the dual resonant circuit is optional. If the switch is not
present, the capacitance shall have a fixed connection to the Secondary Coil . If the switch is present, it shall
(i)
remain closed until the Power Receiver transmits its first Packet (see theQiSpecification,CommunicationsProtocol).
Figure5-DualresonantcircuitofaPowerReceiver
The dual resonant circuit shall have the following resonant frequencies:
In these equations, is the self-inductance of the Secondary Coil when placed on the Interface Surface of a Power
Transmitter and—if necessary—aligned to the Primary Cell; and is the self-inductance of the Secondary Coil without
magnetically active material that is not part of the Power Receiver design close to the Secondary Coil (e.g. away from the
Interface Surface of a Power Transmitter). Moreover, the tolerancesx andy on the resonant frequency arex =y= 5%
for Power Receivers that specify a Maximum Power value in the Configuration Packet of 3 W and above, andx = 5% and
y= 10% for all other Power Receivers.
NOTE: When determining the capacitance value , make sure to account for any parasitic capacitances between the terminals of the
dual resonant circuit that may affect the resonance frequency value .
The quality factor Q of the loop consisting of the Secondary Coil, switch (if present), resonant capacitance and
resonant capacitance , shall exceed the value 77. Here the quality factor Q is defined as:
(i)
The switch shall remain closed even if no power is available from the Secondary Coil.

where is the DC resistance of the loop with the capacitances and short-circuited.
Figure 6 shows the environment that is used to determine the self-inductance of the Secondary Coil. The primary
Shielding shown in Figure 6 consists of material PC44 from TDK Corp. The primary Shielding has a square shape with a
side of 50 mm and a thickness of 1 mm. The centre of the Secondary Coil and the centre of the primary Shielding shall
be aligned. The distance from the Receiver Interface Surface to the primary Shielding is
= 3.4 mm. Shielding on top of the Secondary Coil is present only if the Receiver design includes such Shielding. Other
Power Receiver Product components that influence the inductance of the Secondary Coil shall be present as well when
determining the resonant frequencies. The excitation signal that is used to determine and shall have an amplitude
of 1 V RMS and a frequency of 100 kHz.
Figure6-Characterizationofresonantfrequencies
3.2 Rectificationcircuit
The rectification circuit shall use full-wave rectification to convert the AC waveform to a DC power level.
3.3 Sensingcircuits
The Power Receiver shall monitor the DC voltage directly at the output of the rectification circuit.
3.4 Communicationsmodulator
The Power Receiver shall have the means to modulate the Primary Cell current and Primary Cell voltage as defined inQi
(i)
Specification,CommunicationsPhysicalLayer. This version of the Specification leaves the specific loading method as a
design choice to the Power Receiver. Typical methods include modulation of a resistive load on the DC side of the Power
Receiver and modulation of a capacitive load on the AC side of the Power Receiver.
3.5 Communicationsdemodulator
For the Extended Power Profile, the Power Receiver shall have the means to demodulate frequency-shift keying (FSK)
data from the Power Signal frequency as defined inQiSpecification,CommunicationsPhysicalLayer. This Specification
leaves the specific method up to the designer of the Power Receiver.
3.6 Outputdisconnect
The Power Receiver shall have the means to disconnect its output from the subsystems connected thereto. If the Power
Receiver has disconnected its output, it shall ensure that it still draws a sufficient amount of power from the Power
(i)
Note that the dual resonant circuit as depicted inSection3.1,Dualresonantcircuit does not prohibit implementation
of the communications modulator directly at the Secondary Coil.

Transmitter, such that Power Receiver to Power Transmitter communications remain possible (seeQiSpecification,
CommunicationsPhysicalLayer).
The Power Receiver shall keep its output disconnected until it reaches thepowertransfer phase for the first time after a
Digital Ping (see theQiSpecification,CommunicationsProtocol). Subsequently, the Power Receiver may operate the
output disconnect switch any time while the Power Transmitter applies a Power Signal.
NOTE: The Power Receiver may experience a voltage peak when operating the output disconnect switch (and changing between
maximum and near-zero power dissipation).
3.7 Shielding
An important consideration for a Power Receiver designer is the impact of the Power Transmitter’s magnetic field on
the Power Receiver Product. Stray magnetic fields could interact with the Power Receiver Product and potentially cause
its intended functionality to deteriorate or cause its temperature to increase due to the power dissipation of generated
eddy currents.
It is recommended to limit the impact of magnetic fields by means of Shielding on the top face of the Secondary Coil (see
theQiSpecification,Mechanical,Thermal,andUserInterface for a diagram of the secondary coil assembly). This Shielding
should consist of material that has parameters similar to the materials listed in theQiSpecification,PowerReceiver
DesignExamples. The Shielding should cover the Secondary Coil completely. Additional Shielding beyond the outer
diameter of the Secondary Coil might be necessary depending upon the impact of stray magnetic fields.

4. PowerReceiverdesignguidelines(informative)
4.1 Large-signalresonancecheck
In the course of designing a Power Receiver, it should be verified that the resonance frequency of the dual resonant
circuit remains within the tolerance range defined inSection3.1,Dualresonantcircuit , under large-signal conditions.
The test defined in this section serves this purpose.
Step 1. Connect an RF power source to the assembly of Secondary Coil, Shielding and other components that influence
the inductance of the Secondary Coil and series resonant capacitance ; see Figure 7. The presence of the parallel
capacitance is optional.

Step 3. Measure the input voltage as a function of the frequency of the RF power source in the range of 90…110 kHz,
while maintaining the input current at a constant level, preferably at about twice the maximum value intended in the
final product.

in the applicable Power Transmitter design document for the values of , , , , and .

6. Powerconsumption
In consideration of compliance testing ), a Power Receiver shall not drive the Transmitted Power of Test Power
Transmitter #2 above 7500 mW with the Power Receiver being positioned on TPT#2 such that power transfer can be
sustained without interruption.

7. Meaningfulfunctionality
(Extended Power Profile) If the Power Receiver is not able to negotiate its intended Guaranteed Load Power level with
the Power Transmitter, it shall negotiate a lower Guaranteed Load Power level, and function meaningfully at that power
level. Meaningful functionality includes charging a connected battery at a rate lower than intended.
NOTE: The following examples list cases in which the Power Receiver may not be able to negotiate its target operating power.
l

l
The Potential Power provided in the Power Transmitter Capability Packet is lower than the Power Receiver’s
target operating power.
l
The Power Transmitter is powered by an external power supply that is designed to provide no more than 5 W of
power.
8. UnintentionalMagneticFieldSusceptibility(Informative)
8.1 Limits
It should also be noted that a Power Receiver can be exposed to higher than expected fields during otherwise normal
operation. For example, if the Power Receiver is suddenly moved such that its coupling with the Power Transmitter
changes significantly, the communications channel can become unusable and the voltage generated across the Secondary
Coil can increase unexpectedly.
8.2 Protection
In the case that the output disconnect switch is open, it is recommended that a Power Receiver can withstand a voltage
generated across its Secondary Coil of at least . Here, is the larger of
l
1.6 times the maximum target rectified voltage as defined in Table 3, or
l
the voltage that results if coupled with a type MP-A1 Power Transmitter that is operating at its minimum
Operating Frequency and maximum phase difference between the legs of its full-bridge inverter.

8.3 PowerTransmitterdetection
To detect whether the Power Signal originates from a Power Transmitter, as described in theQiSpecification,
CommunicationsPhysicalLayer, the Power Receiver should also take into account the Power Transmitter designs in the
applicable Power Transmitter design document.

9. LoadSteps
A Power Receiver Product may perform load steps and dumps that are beyond the control of its Power Receiver. A load
step or dump causes an immediate impedance change, which is reflected from the Secondary Coil to the Primary Coil
and results in a change of the rectified voltage. Due to the latency of the control loop (which is mainly due to the time
that is required to communicate Control Error Packets), it takes a while before the rectified voltage is readjusted to a
(new) desired value. The Power Transmitter should ensure that the established Power Transfer Contract is not
terminated during such an event. Therefore, an implementation of a Power Transmitter should meet load steps from
10% to 100% of the Maximum Power (as communicated by the Power Receiver in the Configuration Packet) and load
dumps from 100% to 10%.

10. Over-voltageprotection
A Power Transmitter shall limit the amplitude of its Power Signal (or magnetic field strength) such that it does not
generate a rectified voltage higher than 20 V at the output of a properly designed Power Receiver.
The Power Signal depends on the amount of current that runs through the Primary Coil. This amount is primarily
determined by the Power Transmitter’s Operating Point, the Power Receiver’s load impedance, and the coupling
between the Primary Coil and Secondary Coil. Whereas the Power Receiver can—to a certain extent—control its load
impedance and the Power Transmitter’s Operating Point by transmitting appropriate Control Error Packets, it has little
control over the coupling. As a consequence, scenarios exist in which a higher-than-expected voltage can result at the
Power Receiver’s output.
In one scenario, the user initially places the Power Receiver at a position where the coupling is poor and subsequently
moves it to a position where the coupling is strong. In practice this can happen when the user keeps the Power Receiver
hovering at a small distance above the Interface Surface before setting it down, or when the user places the Power
Receiver with a large misalignment between the Primary Coil and Secondary Coil and subsequently slides it into better
alignment.
In either case, the Power Transmitter can detect the Power Receiver and establish communications before the coils are
properly aligned. The Power Receiver can then start to control its output voltage to a higher level, such as 12 V, in order
to prepare for connecting its load. If the coupling is poor, the Power Receiver typically can reach its target voltage only
by driving the power Transmitter to use a high Primary Coil current (and therefore a strong Power Signal or high
magnetic field). If the coupling suddenly improves substantially, as in the above scenarios, the Power Receiver does not
have time to drive the Power Transmitter back to a lower Primary Coil current. As a result, its output voltage can
substantially increase—up to tens of volts if no special precautions are taken.
Many Power Receiver implementations that are based on common IC technology cannot handle such voltages, with 20 V
being a safe upper limit. Moreover, design constraints often are of such a nature that commonly used solutions for over-
voltage protection cannot be applied. For example, large Zener diodes or dummy loads that can handle the excess power
typically are too bulky to fit in space-limited designs. Accordingly, the Power Receiver typically has no alternative but to
rely on the Power Transmitter to keep its voltage below the safe limit.
Whereas a Power Transmitter can hold its Primary Coil current to a sufficiently low level, placing a hard limit on the
Primary Coil current can prevent a Power Receiver from reaching its target power level when it has connected its load.
A better solution is to define more than one limit according to the amount of power that is transmitted:
l
The Power Transmitter should use a low current limit if the Transmitted Power is low to prevent an over-voltage
from occurring in the Power Receiver
l
It should use a high current limit if the Transmitted Power is high to enable the Power Receiver to reach its
target Operating Point without creating an over-voltage in the Power Receiver.
The system model and analysis below explain this approach in more detail.
Figure 11 illustrates a simplified model of the system comprising a Power Transmitter on the left and a Power Receiver
on the right. For clarity, the load circuit is drawn separately from the Power Receiver. The Power Transmitter consists of
a power source ( , ), a capacitance , an inductance , and a resistance . The power source supplies a
sinusoidal voltage at a frequency . The Power Receiver consists of a capacitance , an inductance , and a
resistance . A load having an impedance is connected to the output terminals of the Power Receiver. The symbols
, , , and represent the load voltage, load current, Primary Coil current, and coupling factor.

Figure11-Simplifiedsystemmodel
For simplicity, the Power Receiver in the model includes neither a rectifier nor a resonance at a frequency as defined
inSection3.1,Dualresonantcircuit andSection3.2,Rectificationcircuit . The absence of the additional resonance does
not significantly affect the results discussed below. The effect of the rectifier is described at the end of this section.
Table 10 lists the parameters associated with the system model in Figure 11. Instead of the resonant capacitances
and , and the resistances and , the resonant frequencies and , and quality factors and are provided.
The relations between these parameters are as follows:
The Power Transmitter controls the amount of power it transfers by adjusting the amplitude of its voltage and
frequency in the ranges given in Table 10.
At start-up, it uses the ping voltage and ping frequency . To control the power up, it decreases its frequency
while keeping its voltage constant at the maximum value. To control the power down, it increases the frequency at
constant voltage, and after reaching the maximum frequency value decreases the voltage while keeping the frequency
constant at that maximum.
At start-up, the Power Receiver uses a load impedance , which represents the load of its control electronics such as
a microprocessor. After start-up, the Power Receiver can adjust its load impedance to reach its target Operating Point as
given by the target voltage and target current .

Power Transmitter operation is subject to these constraints:
l
The Power Transmitter only uses the part of its Operating Frequency range where the Primary Coil current
decreases while the Operating Frequency increases. This constraint ensures that the Control Error Packets from
the Power Receiver have a consistent effect: a positive Control Error Value causes the Primary Coil current to
increase
