Qnovo, California, which has been committed to the research and development of battery fast charging technology since 2010, recently announced the completion of a $8.
6 million Series B financing, while Intel Capital has joined and become strategic investors along with existing investment companies RockPort Captial, US Venture Partners and Blue Run Ventures
.
It is understood that Qnovo's adaptive charging technology can significantly improve the charging speed
without shortening the battery life.
While the technology isn't yet commercially available, Qnovo said the new funding will be used to support the technology
that will allow "some smartphones" to use it next year.
The company will continue to focus on smartphones, but also plans to expand its applications to other devices, such as laptops and wearables
.
What is the principle of its battery fast charging technology? It is a software layer
that optimizes this process by examining the charging response of lithium batteries and then adjusting the current and voltage in real time.
"At present, the most common charging technology is called 'Constant-Current Constant-Voltage' (hereinafter referred to as "CCCV"
).
CCCV is a unidirectional process that is unaware
of the aging chemical reactions that occur inside the battery.
Through the return of state of charge information and continuous adjustment according to the reaction, Qnovo can 'see' the signature of the aging mechanism and adjust the charging current and voltage in real time, minimizing damage to the battery and maximizing the charging speed
.
So says Qnovo co-founder and CEO Nadeem Maalouf
.
According to reports, this battery fast charging technology has broad application prospects
in applications that benefit from long cycle life or fast charging.
"It can be used with standard lithium batteries without any changes, so it can be quickly applied to production without adding any cost
to battery production.
" Officer Nadim Malouf said, "We are pleased to have Intel joining
as a strategic investor.
We see this as a recognition of our technology and the importance of improving the battery performance of mobile devices.
