Abstract: Devices and methods for controlling a power supply of a wireless power transmitter based on the request of a wireless power receiver are disclosed. One embodiment provides a wireless power receiver. The wireless power receiver includes a power receiver circuit configured to receive power from a wireless power transmitter at a level sufficient to power or charge a load. The wireless power receiver also includes a processor circuit configured to adjust a level of the received power being provided to the load based on a change in a level of received power to be requested to the wireless power transmitter. The processor circuit is further configured send to the wireless power transmitter the request to change the level of the received power to a first different level.

Abstract: A rechargeable computing device including a battery, a processor, a power receiver, a reset switch, and a circuit for receiving a reset signal may receive the reset signal via a power source. The processor may be configured to be reset in response to actuation of the reset switch. The power receiver may be configured to receive a wireless power transmission from a remote charging apparatus and charge the battery using power captured from the wireless power transmission. The reset switch may be coupled to the processor and to the circuit for receiving a reset signal. The circuit for receiving a reset signal may be configured to activate the reset switch to reset the processor in response to detecting a reset signal encoded within a wireless power transmission. In some embodiments, the circuit for receiving a reset signal may be configured to receive the signal from a wired power input.
