    Abstract: Disclosed herein is a wireless power transmission/reception apparatus and method having a communication function. The wireless power transmission/reception apparatus includes a wireless power transmission device and wireless power transmission devices. The wireless power transmission device receives a returned wireless power signal, detects the number of power consumption devices, modulates pieces of ID data, each including ID of a corresponding power consumption device, transmits the modulated ID data, receives returned ID data, and determines suitableness of the power consumption devices. Each of the wireless power reception devices returns a remaining wireless power signal which is not received among wireless power signals from the wireless power transmission device, and temporarily stops a power consumption device when an ID of the received ID data is an ID of a power consumption device connected thereto, thus returning ID data which will be subsequently received to the wireless power transmission device.

  • Patent number: 7525407
    Abstract: An integrated circuit having integrated inductors includes at least one pair of transistors, and at least one inductor group which includes a pair of inductors coupled to the at least one pair of the transistor, respectively. The pair of the inductors form a spiral shape on a plane and the inductors arranged symmetrically to each other. Magnetic fluxes, which are generated by current flows along the inductors of the at least one inductor group, are formed in a direction to mutually intensify the magnetic fluxes according to differential signals applied to the at least one transistors from outside. Accordingly, high inductance and high quality factor can be attained owing to the positive magnetic coupling of the inductors.

  • Publication number: 20090096557
    Abstract: Disclosed is a variable inductance applying device using a variable capacitor, and a variable frequency generating device thereof. The variable inductance applying device includes: a first inductor whose both terminals are connected to an inductance applying terminal applying inductance to an external circuit; a second inductor inductively coupled to the first inductor; and a variable capacitor connected to both terminals of the second inductor, which varies inductance from the inductance applying terminal by changing capacitance. Therefore, the inductance to be applied to the external circuit can be varied by changing the capacitance of the variable capacitor. Since the variable capacitor rarely contains a resistance component, energy loss due to the resistance component hardly occurs. As a result, the variable inductance applying device has a high value of Q.
