HI , Designing a 15W Qi transmitter with a conditional 5V output requires a specific power architecture. To achieve 15W of wireless power, the USB-C input cannot just pull 5V; it must include a USB Power Delivery (PD) sink controller to negotiate 9V or 12V from the wall charger. I am a Senior Hardware Engineer specializing in power electronics. I don't just deliver CAD files; I will manufacture, assemble, and bench-test a functional physical prototype for you in my lab. My Engineering Approach: 1. Core Qi & PD Sink: I will use a 15W Qi IC paired with a USB PD trigger. The resonant tank will use strictly C0G/NP0 capacitors to handle the high AC voltages without thermal drift. 2. 5V Switched Output: I will step the 9V/12V input down to 5V via a high-efficiency buck converter. To make it "live" only during charging, I will route the Qi controller's "Charging Active" status pin to the gate of a MOSFET load switch. Cost & Timeline: For the complete manufacturing package (Gerbers, BOM, CPL), my fixed engineering estimate is $450 to $500. Designing the board takes 4-6 days. Factoring in JLCPCB fabrication and my physical bench-testing, the maximum turnaround is 14 to 21 days. Questions for you: What is the maximum current (Amps) required by your 5V switched output? Do you have strict dimension limits for the PCBA or the planar coil? Let's discuss! Best, Ahmed Mustafa Senior Hardware Engineer

Designing a 15W Qi-compliant wireless charging transmitter PCB requires careful power-path design, coil-driver selection, USB-C input handling, thermal management, EMI-aware layout, and a controlled 5V output that is enabled only during an active charging state. Well what I can do for you as electronics engineer with 8+ years of experience is design the complete PCB around a suitable Qi transmitter IC/reference architecture, including schematic capture, component selection, USB-C power input stage, transmitter coil interface, charging-status logic for switched 5V positive/negative output, PCB layout, BOM, Gerber files, and assembly documentation. In fact, I’ve worked on multiple PCB-design and embedded electronics projects involving power electronics, battery systems, wireless charging concepts, USB-powered circuits, regulated outputs, protection stages, and manufacturable board documentation, so delivering a clean Qi-transmitter PCB design with proper layout rules, thermal considerations, and production-ready files aligns directly with my electronics engineering experience. I can start after confirming the target coil, enclosure size, preferred PCB dimensions, USB-C input rating, and whether you want the 5V output triggered from the Qi controller’s charge/status pin or through an external sensing circuit.

I specialize in precision power electronics, and I need to point out a massive electrical trap regarding your USB-C input and switched output requirements. First, delivering 15W wirelessly requires at least 18W to 20W of input power due to inductive coupling losses. A standard 5V USB-C connection will brown out and crash the board. We strictly need to integrate a USB Power Delivery (PD) sink controller to negotiate 9V or 12V from the wall adapter. Second, Qi transmitter ICs do not naturally output a switched 5V power rail during operation; they only provide a low-voltage digital status signal. To get your "live only while charging" connection, I will design a custom active-state power gate—using the Qi IC's status pin to drive a logic-level MOSFET that switches a regulated 5V rail on and off. My Execution Plan: USB PD Negotiation: I will implement a dedicated PD sink IC to ensure the board negotiates the correct voltage and never starves the resonant tank. Active-State Power Gating: I will design the load-switch architecture to give you a clean, isolated 5V output strictly during the active power transfer phase. Turnkey Delivery: Full schematics, coil-optimized routing, Gerbers, and a sourced BOM. My turnaround time for a production-ready package is 8-12days. Before we start, I just have one question: How much current does your switched 5V output need to support? This will dictate the size of the MOSFET and the step-down regulator we use.

Dear Client, This is not just a wireless-charging PCB. The important part is making the Qi transmitter, USB-C input, coil drive, thermal behavior and “5V only when charging” output logic work together cleanly. I can help design this as a compact, buildable charger board. My approach would be: ✅ select a suitable 15W Qi transmitter controller and coil architecture ✅ design the USB-C input, power path, protection and thermal layout properly ✅ implement the controlled 5V output so it is enabled only during active charging ✅ prepare schematic, PCB layout, BOM and manufacturing files ✅ include bring-up notes for validating charging behavior and output enable logic For wireless charging, coil selection and PCB layout discipline matter as much as the IC choice. I would keep the first version practical and testable. Two quick questions: 1. Do you already have a target coil size / mechanical envelope? 2. Should the 5V output be a simple logic-controlled rail, or does it need a defined current rating? If you message me, I can suggest the cleanest charger architecture and expected turnaround.
