2.2 Basic operating modes
The STWBC86 is designed to work in transmitter mode only. Once the board is powered up, the device
automatically starts pinging (if enabled), which means it starts scanning its power transfer interface for a potential
power receiver. Once a suitable receiver is found, the STWBC86 initializes power transfer. After the receiver is
removed from the interface, the device returns to the pinging phase.
