Until now, the strategy of manufacturers to raise the power of fast charging above 50 W has been split the battery in half to apply a double simultaneous charge; thus increasing the heat released by the process as well as the energy wasted during it. Xiaomi has managed to keep the charging power high using just one battery. To do this, she created the Surge P1, an SoC designed to handle the load.
The brand’s new processor takes care of the super-fast charge on the Xiaomi 12 Pro, the first mobile to integrate the new SoC. As the brand specifies on the Weibo social network, with the phone it has managed to reduce the time in the socket without using two batteries. This increases the available space, allowing increase capacity; reduce the heat released during the process and make better use of energy, always in the words of Xiaomi.
The Surge P1 is a processor that manages power flows in real time to maintain 120W of wired charging for a single battery. You can manage the different modes in a unique way: fast wired charging, wireless charging and reverse charging. The Surge P1 achieves an ultra-high power density of 0.83 W / mm² and constantly manages the load to keep it stable and safe.
As we said, the first mobile to include the new super-fast charging processor is the Xiaomi 12 pro, a phone that we will finally see tomorrow, December 28. Everything indicates that it will be a range premium manual in which not only the Surge P1 will stand out, but also the Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. It will be for the power.
