These new chips make the USB-C ports on Anker&#8217;s chargers and portable batteries compatible with Qualcomm Quick Charge 3.0 and Power Delivery up to 100W, enabling them to charge virtually any USB-C device at its fastest possible speed.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Anker\u00a0PowerPort+ Atom III\u00a0(Two Ports) is the first wall charger with PowerIQ 3.0. It can output a total of 60W via its USB-A and USB-C ports. Like other entries in the Atom series, it uses highly-efficient GaN (gallium nitride) semiconductors instead of silicon. This allows for a significantly reduced size compared to traditional chargers\u201415% smaller than a MacBook 60W stock charger.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;The fast-charging capability of mobile devices is now faster than ever thanks to USB-C, but the industry continues to get fragmented due to manufacturers choosing different fast-charging protocols for their products, which creates confusion,&#8221; said\u00a0Steven Yang, CEO of Anker Innovations. &#8220;With PowerIQ 3.0, the latest generation of Anker chargers and batteries can communicate with all of these protocols, allowing them to identify and fast-charge any device, from laptops and tablets to smartphones and even PD compatible gaming consoles like the Nintendo Switch. From now on, consumers can rely on a single charger to charge virtually all of their devices fast.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Anker PowerPort+ Atom III (Two Ports) is the first wall charger with PowerIQ 3.0.
