This dual port gallium nitride desktop charger from DJI adopts a split cable design, effectively adapting to applications of different lengths. The charger has a 100W output power and supports single port 100W output. Both ports support 100W output power and support automatic power allocation. The actual test charger supports 5-20V 5A PPS fast charging, which not only charges DJI products but also meets the charging needs of mobile phones and laptops well.

According to the disassembly of the Charging Head Network, the 100W GaN charger from DJI adopts a PFC+LLC+DC-DC architecture design. The PFC uses Ga Future GaN power chip combined with Rayleigh diode rectification, and LLC uses sub micron RMD65R380SN MOSFETs to form a half bridge. The output uses two low-voltage MOSFETs for synchronous rectification, and the primary control chip and synchronous rectification controller of the power supply are both from NXP NXP.

The switching power supply adopts a fixed voltage output, and the output adopts a secondary voltage reduction circuit. The two IP6550 synchronous voltage reduction controllers are controlled by the Yingjixin IP2738 protocol chip for voltage reduction output, meeting the requirements of two independent fast charging outputs. The internal electrolytic capacitor of the charger comes from Chengxing, and the output is entirely made of solid-state capacitors, with lower ripple and longer lifespan. The PCBA module of the charger is covered with pure copper heat dissipation fins, and the components are glued and filled to accelerate heat dissipation, meeting the requirements of long-term full load output applications.
