WIRELESS POWER RECEIVER WITH DYNAMICALLY CONFIGURABLE POWER PATH

摘要

Methods and apparatus for dynamically selecting one of two power paths in a wireless power receiver. A first power path of the two power paths provides a regulated voltage to output circuitry electrically connected to the wireless power receiver. A second power path of the two power paths provides an unregulated voltage to the output circuitry.

主权项

1. A wireless power receiver, comprising:
rectifier circuitry configured to output a rectified voltage; and power path circuitry including bypass circuitry configured to output an unregulated voltage, voltage regulator circuitry configured to output a regulated voltage, and mode controller circuitry configured to enable the bypass circuitry or the voltage regulator circuitry based, at least in part, on the rectified voltage and information describing an allowable input voltage for output circuitry electrically connected to the wireless power receiver.
