  • Patent number: 8129942
    Abstract: A system, method and apparatus for contact-less charging of battery operated devices is presented. There is a host charger with a power converter and resonant tank circuit and a portable device where the battery is located, with a battery charging control IC. The method obviates the need for a voltage controller in each of both the host and the portable stages, thus decreasing complexity and increasing efficiency. The charging of the battery in the portable device is controlled by a charging controller therein, which is in continual electric communication with the host, whose output power the control IC dynamically monitors and controls. Two embodiments for the charging circuitry in the portable device are presented. In one embodiment component count is minimized but battery charging is not optimized when the battery voltage is very low. In the other embodiment charging efficiency is maximized regardless of the output voltage of the battery, but additional components are utilized.

  • Patent number: 8013568
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a wireless charger for a mobile communication terminal, which allows charging a plurality of batteries in a conveniently way without any terminal connection of the batteries to chargers for various mobile communication terminals such as a cellular phone and PDA and also allows intercepting electromagnetic waves while the charger is used, by means of Faraday's law. The wireless charger of the present invention includes a charger body having an electromagnetic wave intercepting means; a charging pad received in the charger body; and at least one battery that is to be charged by means of induced electromotive force generated by the charging pad, wherein the charger body includes a power supply means, a housing having a receiver for receiving the charging pad and connected to the power supply means, and a cover hinged to the housing.

  • Publication number: 20090102419
    Abstract: A wireless charger charges a storage battery of a portable electronic device in a wireless manner (non-contacting or contact-less) so that a variation of charging efficiency is not serious though the storage battery is placed any position of the wireless charger. The wireless charger is provided with a primary coil for generating a magnetic field so as to charge a subject, which is provided with a secondary coil, by means of inductive coupling with the secondary coil. The primary coil includes an outer coil arranged with a predetermined winding number and a predetermined size; and at least one inner coil arranged to be included inside the outer coil. The outer coil and the inner coil are arranged so that, when a primary current is applied to the outer coil and the inner coil, magnetic fluxes generated in the outer coil and the inner coil are formed in the same direction.

  • Publication number: 20020041417
    Abstract: A burst mode receiver using a multi-stage feedback reduces its pulse width distortion in output data and improves its sensitivity by exactly extracting a reference voltage used as a detection threshold based on a packet transmission for an optical multi-access network. The receiver comprises a differential preamplifier circuit for generating an output voltage after detecting a difference between a detected current input signal from photodetector and a reference input signal; current source for compensating an offset of the differential preamplifier circuit; multistage amplifier means for adjusting a voltage level of the reference signal to a half value of the output voltage of the differential preamplifier circuit; blocking transistor for responding to an output of the multistage amplifier means; capacitor for storing a peak amplitude of the detected current input signal; and buffer transistor for controlling a discharge rate of the capacitor.
