The Portable Revolution: Qorvo Powers The Shift To Smarter, Battery-Driven Systems

The rapid shift toward electrification is transforming industries from garden tools to humanoid robotics, and Qorvo is at the forefront with advanced battery management and motor control solutions. Two major trends—widespread adoption of rechargeable battery-powered systems and the migration to brushless DC (BLDC) motors—are driving demand for smarter, more reliable power electronics.

Qorvo’s Battery Management Systems (BMS) are uniquely positioned in the fast-growing mid-voltage space (48–100V), powering applications like e-scooters, drones, and robotic platforms. Unlike competitors that require stacking chips, Qorvo supports up to 20 lithium-ion cells (80V) on a single chip, reducing cost, complexity, and risk while enhancing safety and reliability.

Complementing its BMS portfolio, Qorvo brings deep expertise in BLDC motor control, developed over more than a decade. Integrated solutions deliver efficiency, longevity, and compact form factors, while simplifying complex control schemes. Together, Qorvo’s dual focus on battery management and motor control makes it a one-stop partner for OEMs seeking complete system solutions.

Looking ahead, Qorvo is preparing for emerging markets like humanoid robotics, where dozens of compact, efficient motors must work reliably in tight spaces. The company is also advancing battery chemistry research, including sodium-ion, for safer, more sustainable alternatives to lithium-ion. Programmable ARM Cortex MCU-based platforms enable customization, with capabilities like TinyML for motor diagnostics and state-of-charge estimation.

From robotics to e-mobility, Qorvo empowers customers to innovate faster, simplify designs, and lead in their markets, positioning itself as a key enabler of the electrified future.
