    Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices, including machine-readable media, for dynamic battery power management are disclosed. In some implementations, an electronic device that is powered by a battery senses a voltage provided by the battery and an electric current provided by the battery. The electronic device determines a present state of the battery. The electronic device determines a current limit for the electronic device based on the sensed voltage and electric current and the determined present state of the battery. The electronic device manages power use of the electronic device to maintain electric current draw from the battery at or below the electric current limit.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for a wearable device having a wireless power receiving system that may inductively receive or transmit power. The wireless power receiving system includes a receiver coil having a profile that follows a contour of a bottom cover of the wearable device. A transmitter coil from a wireless charging device has a complementary profile that mates with the profile defined by the receiver coil. In one example, the wireless power receiving system includes a shielding, and a receiver coil attached to the shielding. The receiver coil further includes an inner wall and an outer wall connected by a top surface of a coil body. The inner wall defines a center opening in the receiver coil, wherein the receiver coil is conical in shape.

    Abstract: Shielded electrical transformers and power converters using those transformers are disclosed. In some implementations, a shielded electrical transformer includes a magnetic core, a primary winding, a first secondary winding, and a second secondary winding. The transformer includes a first shielding winding that has a same voltage potential direction as the primary winding and is connected in series with the primary winding to carry current that passes through the primary winding. The transformer also includes a second shielding winding that has a voltage potential direction opposite the primary winding and is connected from primary ground to a floating terminal. The first secondary winding, the second secondary winding, the first shielding winding, and the second shielding winding can each have an approximately equal number of turns.
