    摘要: A synchronous rectifier using only n-channel devices in which the low-side switches are effectively cross-coupled using low-side comparators and the high-side switches perform an accurate zero-voltage-switching (ZVS) comparison. The charging path of each bootstrap domain is completed through the low-side switches, which are each always on for every half-cycle independent of loading. This scheme gives rectifier efficiency gain because a) each bootstrap domain receives maximum charging time, and b) the charging occurs through a switch rather than a diode. Both these factors ensure the bootstrap domain is fully charged, thereby reducing conduction losses through the rectifier switches. Furthermore, settings may be adjusted by software to optimize the resistive and capacitive losses of the rectifier. Using data for die temperature and operating frequency, software can create a feedback loop, dynamically adjusting rectifier settings in order to achieve the best possible efficiency.

    摘要: A transmitter module is used in a wireless charging system, and is used for performing in-band communication with a receiver module in the wireless charging system to provide a message to the receiver module. The transmitter module has a matching network, a rectifier and an impedance component. The matching network has at least one input terminal coupled to a coil of the transmitter module and at least one output terminal. The rectifier is coupled to the output terminal of the matching network. The impedance component is selectively coupled to the output terminal of the matching network to vary a reflected impedance of the transmitter module seen by the receiver module. By varying the reflected impedance of the transmitter module seen by the receiver module, the transmitter module communicates with the receiver module to provide power control commands, status and/or foreign object detection information.

    摘要: A resonant wireless power system includes a source circuit having a source coil, an ac driver with a first resistance, representing the equivalent output impedance of the ac driver, and a matching network. A current probe measures the magnitude signal of the instantaneous source coil current. A voltage probe measures the instantaneous ac driver voltage. A phase detector compares the phase of the instantaneous source coil current and the instantaneous ac driver voltage, and produces a first output signal proportional to the phase difference. A first amplifier compares the magnitude signal and a target signal, and produces an error signal proportional to the difference. A first compensation filter produces the control voltage that determines the ac driver supply voltage. A second amplifier amplifies the first output signal. A second compensation filter produces the control voltage that determines the impedance of a variable element in the source circuit.
