The Qi 1.3 standard includes new secure authentication features that verify if a smartphone or other wireless power device is Qi Certified and can reduce the wireless power transfer to lower levels if an uncertified device is detected. This ensures user safety and protects equipment from damage. Most major smartphone manufacturers, including Apple, Samsung, and Xiaomi, use the WPC Qi standard.

NXP said the new features require the addition of secure storage to the wireless power transmitter, which is addressed by NXP’s automotive-grade products.
