蘋果傳將推雙向無線充電 台多家PCB業者已有技術可望受惠

蘋果在 2017 年秋季首次亮相的無線充電板 AirPower,由於 AirPower 無法達標,遭蘋果宣布正式取消,中國天風證券分析郭明錤則提出合理解釋,認為蘋果將開發雙向無線充電設計,台廠包含華通 (2313-TW) 及欣興 (3037-TW) 等電池板供應商,都將可望受惠。PCB 業界人士指出,該技術是將 NFC 與 WPC 整合成一模組,台廠包含台郡、臻鼎與嘉聯益都可做到此技術。
業者表示,三星手機 S10 設計成無線雙向充電,僅是將 NFC 及 WPC 軟板整合成一模組。台軟板廠包括台郡 (6269-TW)、臻鼎 (4958-TW) 及嘉聯益 (6153-TTW) ,都能做到此技術。目前軟板廠同泰 (3321-TW) 已承接兩個機種的雙向無線充電模組軟板生產,且接單數量明顯在擴大中。
郭明錤認為,蘋果新功能,可讓消費者更方便充電新款 AirPods,創造 iPhone 與 AirPods 更佳的整合使者體驗。
過去蘋果高階手機設計成單向無線充電,是 NFC 及 WPC 各自獨立,且無線充電接收端為銅線圈製程,市場反映接收充電效能不佳,甚至台郡過去也曾指出,接收端採銅線圈製程,耗用材料成本高,也折損毛利率表現,據了解,蘋果已將此無線充電接收端的銅線圈製程,交由台郡以外的廠商承製。
但對 3C 電子產品而言,產品功能、設計不斷整合、效能不斷擴大,為開發趨勢,PCB 業界人士指出,蘋果採取將 NFC 及 WPC 軟板加以整合為一模組,執行雙向無線充電功能,符合市場預期,蘋果軟板廠應是此設計改變的主要受惠者。
至於蘋果改變此設計,相關 PCB 廠都表示,不針對單一客戶產品表示意見。其中華通對今年接單,仍明顯偏向保守。
郭明錤最新報告指出,蘋果改為雙向充電,因此受惠的蘋果電池板廠,過去包括華通、欣興及燿華 (2367-TW) ,其主要產品為軟硬結合板控制電池相關電壓及輸入、輸出電流,但去年燿華退出此產品生產,改往 AirPods 藍牙耳機軟硬結合板生產為主,目前對 iPhone 的電池控制軟硬結合板生產,僅限於舊有機種 iPhone。(新聞來源:鉅亨網)
