Charging programme enables a 75% battery capacity in 30 minutes

With UL’s stringent certification programme in place, AC/DC adapter OEM’s can run their products through the programme to receive MediaTek’s Pump Express Plus certification. Device certification also provides a guarantee for end-consumers that charging works as intended, quickly and safely.

The charger was designed to maximise charging efficiency by allowing for a maximum output current of 12V through a standard USB adapter and transmission power up to 15W or above. Through this cooperation with UL, chip providers, power suppliers and mobile devices makers using Pump Express Plus must go through UL’s premier testing programme to demonstrate they are in compliance with the latest global safety charging requirements.

“We are very supportive of technology leaders like MediaTek, who continuously pursue innovation and seek to improve global safety standards, by promoting new technologies to partners and customers,” said Barry Yu, General Manager for Greater China, Consumer Technology Division, UL.

“With extensive experience in fast charging and the global technical network, UL developed a testing programme that assessed and ultimately approved MediaTek’s technology against strict guidelines for voltage, current, and temperature. As a result, end users can enjoy their electronics products with more reliable charging performance,” added by Yu.
