What is the Wireless Charging?

Wireless charging is to transfer power through non-conductive means (usually using magnetic field as a bridge for power transfer).

What Frequency change can change the output power?
System Overview
  • Base Station

Contains one, or more transmitters

Transmitter provides power to receiver

  • Mobile Device

Contains a receiver that provides power to a load (e.g. a battery)

Receiver provides control information to transmitter

System Overview (Control)
  • Receiver controls the power to the output load

− To the need of the mobile device (required power)

− To the desired operation point (e.g. output current, voltage)

  • Transmitter adapts power transfer

− To the need of the receiver (required power)

− To the desired operation point (e.g. primary coil current)

System Overview (Communication)
  • Receiver sends messages

−To provide control and device information to the transmitter by load modulation on the power signal

−To receive the device information from the transmitter by de-modulation (to be added in Qi v1.2)

  • Transmitter receives messages

−To receive control and device information from the receiver by de-modulation

−To provide device information to the receiver by frequency modulation on the power signal (to be added in v1.2)

Power Pick Up (Receiver)
  • Secondary coil (Ls)
  • Serial resonance capacitor (Cs ) for efficient power transfer
  • Parallel resonance capacitor (Cd ) for detection purposes
  • Rectifier: full bridge (diode, or switched) + capacitor
  • Output switch for (dis-)connecting the load
