Abstract: In a power and data transmission method which can transmit power and information (data) simultaneously and contactlessly, and an apparatus therefor, a pair of coil units are magnetically coupled to each other. Each of the coil units has: a power transmission coil configured by a coil which is wound in a plane, and a magnetic shield member which is placed on a rear surface of the coil; and an information transmission coil configured by a coil which is wound in a plane, and a magnetic shield member which is placed on a rear surface of the coil, the coil diameter of the information transmission coil is made different from that of the power transmission coil, and the information transmission coil and the power transmission coil are stacked. Data are transmitted while power is transmitted.

Abstract: In a power and data transmission method which can transmit power and information (data) simultaneously and contactlessly to a USB device using a USB interface, and an apparatus therefor, a pair of coil units are magnetically coupled to each other. Each of the coil units has: a power transmission coil configured by a coil which is wound in a plane, and a magnetic shield member which is placed on a rear surface of the coil; and an information transmission coil configured by a coil which is wound in a plane, and a magnetic shield member which is placed on a rear surface of the coil, the coil diameter of the information transmission coil is made different from that of the power transmission coil, and the information transmission coil and the power transmission coil are stacked. Data are transmitted while power is transmitted to the USB device.

Abstract: A power transmission coil in which heat generation by a magnetic shield itself can be suppressed as far as possible is provided. A power transmission coil is configured by: a coil (1) wound in a plane; and a magnetic shield member (2) disposed on the rear surface of the coil (1). A most part, e.g. 65% or more, and preferably 70% or more of the area of the surface of the magnetic shield member (2) on which the coil is disposed is covered by the coil (1). In this case, the magnetic shield member (2) is formed in a rectangular shape, and the coil (1) is formed in a rectangular shape similar to the magnetic shield member (2).
