Induction heating device and method for determining loaded-object on the induction heating device
Abstract:
An induction heating device includes a working coil, an inverter, an inverter driving unit configured to apply a switching signal to the inverter to enable the inverter to perform a switching operation, a control unit configured to generate and apply a control signal to the inverter driving unit to cause the inverter driving unit to generate the switching signal based on the control signal, and a determination unit configured to determine a type of an object disposed on the induction heating device based on (i) a first resonant current value measured from the working coil in response to operation of the inverter by the switching signal having a first operation frequency and (ii) a second resonant current value measured from the working coil in response to operation of the inverter by the switching signal having a second operation frequency.
