Abstract:
Techniques for wired and wireless charging of electronic devices are provided. An example of a method for charging a device according to the disclosure includes receiving a signal from a power source with an electronic circuit, such that the electronic circuit includes a synchronous rectifier comprising a first phase leg and a second phase leg, utilizing the first phase leg to implement synchronous rectification and the second phase leg to implement a single phase buck converter when the signal is a wireless signal received from the power source, utilizing the first phase leg and the second phase leg to implement a multi-phase buck converter when the signal is received from a wired power source, and providing an output signal with the electronic circuit.
