Abstract: Techniques of magnetic field distribution are described herein. The techniques may include forming a wireless charging component including a driving coil to receive a driven current generating a magnetic field. An outer turn of a parasitic coil may be formed, wherein the outer turn is adjacent to the driving coil. An inner turn of the parasitic coil may be formed, wherein an inductive coupling between the driving coil and the parasitic coil generates a redistribution of a portion of the magnetic field at the inner turn.

Abstract: Techniques of forming a transmitter coil are described herein. The techniques may include forming turns of the transmitter coil, wherein a non-uniform spacing between the turns of the transmitter coil is to reduce a magnetic field variation associated with the transmitter coil.

Abstract: An ultra-low voltage rail-to-rail operational transconductance amplifier (OTA) is based on a standard digital 0.18 ?m CMOS process. Techniques for designing a 0.8 volt fully differential OTA include bias and reference current generator circuits. To achieve rail-to-rail operation, complementary input differential pairs are used, where the bulk-driven technique is applied to reduce the threshold limitation of the MOSFET transistors. The OTA gain is increased by using auxiliary gain boosting amplifiers.
