Description

SPECIFICATION CONTROLLER OF WIRELESS CHARGING DEVICE, POWER SUPPLY MODULE, AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] This application relates to the field of electronic technologies, and in particular, to a quality factor detection circuit and detection method based on an oscillating circuit, and an electronic device. BACKGROUND

[0002] As the wireless charging technology becomes popular, many wireless charging products have emerged in the market, among which mobile phone transmitters according to a wireless power consortium (wireless power consortium, WPC) Qi standard have gained the largest share.

[0003] A wireless charging product, during application, is usually in an open scenario. For example, a mobile phone having a wireless charging function is charged with a charger as an accessory, and the mobile phone and the charger are independent and separable product forms. A transmit (transport, TX) apparatus in the accessory needs to perform real-time detection and identification on a receive (receive, RX) apparatus (usually installed inside an electronic device, such as a mobile phone, having a wireless charging function) placed in the accessory; and upon identifying the receive apparatus, starts to control charging to complete transfer of electrical energy. In addition, it is also required to determine whether there is a foreign object between the transmit apparatus and the receive apparatus. If the foreign object cannot be accurately detected, the foreign object (such as a bank card or an identity card) may be damaged in a charging process, which seriously restricts development of the wireless charging industry. Therefore, foreign object detection has become a primary issue in safety of wireless charging and is also a pain point in the industry.

[0004] However, the current wireless charging has a limited foreign object detection capability and a small coverage area, and many foreign objects cannot be detected. This seriously threatens the safety of wireless charging and is extremely unfavorable for further development of the industry. At present, a foreign object detection method used is mainly a quality factor (quality factor, Q) detection method. A principle of the Q-factor detection method is: Presence of the foreign object between the transmit apparatus and the receive apparatus affects a parameter of an inductor coil of the transmit apparatus and then affects a Q factor of the inductor coil, and therefore detection of the Q factor of the inductor coil can reflect whether a foreign object is present. Therefore, accuracy of foreign object detection can be improved by improving detection precision and a detection speed of the Q factor, and how to detect the Q factor quickly with high precision has become a problem that needs to be resolved currently. SUMMARY

[0009] The controller is further configured to: when it is determined, through the foreign object detection, that there is no foreign object, resume power transmission to the electronic device.

[0016] In a possible implementation, the transmission parameter is a parameter of a calibration curve.

[0017] A calibration curve of a power transmitter is valid only when a position of a power receiver product in a working area remains unchanged. When the position or an environment changes, the parameter curve needs to be updated.

[0038] Embodiments of this application are applied to a wireless charging system. The wireless charging system includes an electronic device 01 and a charger 02 shown in FIG. 1. The charger 02 serves as a transmitter device, and the electronic device 01 serves as a receiver device. The electronic device includes a mobile phone (mobile phone), a tablet computer (pad), a computer with a wireless transceiver function, an intelligent wearable product (for example, a smartwatch or a smart band), a virtual reality (virtual reality, VR) terminal device, an augmented reality (augmented reality, AR) terminal device, and the like with a wireless device function. The electronic device may alternatively be a wirelessly-charged electric vehicle, a wirelessly-charged small household appliance (for example, a soy milk maker or a floor sweeping robot), a drone, or another electronic product. A specific form of the electronic device is not specifically limited in embodiments of this application. For ease of description, the following uses an example in which the electronic device 01 is a mobile phone shown in FIG. 1 for description.

[0039] To wirelessly charge the electronic device 01, as shown in FIG. 1, a wireless charging receiver circuit 20 and a battery 50 connected to the wireless charging receiver circuit 20 are provided in the electronic device 01. For example, as shown in FIG. 2, the electronic device 01 mainly includes a display panel (display panel, DP) 10. The display panel 10 may be a liquid crystal display (liquid crystal display, LCD) or an organic light-emitting diode (organic light- emitting diode, OLED) display. This is not limited in this application. The electronic device 01 further includes a middle frame 11 and a housing 12 shown in FIG. 2. The display panel 10 and the housing 12 are respectively on two sides of the middle frame 11, the back of the display panel 10 faces the housing 12, and the display panel 10 is connected to the housing 12 via the middle frame 11. The wireless charging receiver circuit 20 and the battery 50 may be provided on a side surface, of the middle frame 11, that faces the housing 12.

[0040] The charger 02 includes a wireless charging circuit 30 disposed in the charger 02 as shown in FIG. 1, and a power supply 40 connected to the wireless charging circuit 30. The power supply 40 is used to provide electrical energy for charging. In some embodiments of this application, the power supply 40 may be a power adapter. The power supply 40 can convert an alternating current of 220 V into a direct current (for example, 5 V or 10 V) according to a requirement for charging power, and transmit the direct current to the wireless charging circuit 30.

[0041] When a side on which the housing 12 of the electronic device 01 is located is placed on the charger 02, to wirelessly charge the electronic device 01, as shown in FIG. 3, the wireless charging circuit 30 includes a voltage converter 301 and a TX oscillating circuit 302. The voltage converter 301 may be a direct current (direct current, DC) to alternating current (alternating current, AC) converter, that is, a DC / AC converter. The wireless charging receiver circuit 20 further includes an RX oscillating circuit 201 and a rectifier circuit 202.

[0042] Based on this, the voltage converter 301 is connected to the power supply 40 and can convert a direct current output by the power supply 40 into an alternating current. In addition, the TX oscillating circuit 302 is connected to the voltage converter 301. After receiving the alternating current output by the voltage converter 301, the TX oscillating circuit 302 may generate an alternating magnetic field. The RX oscillating circuit 201 receives the alternating magnetic field and outputs an alternating current, so that a power from the TX oscillating circuit 302 can be transmitted to the RX oscillating circuit 201.

[0043] In addition, the RX oscillating circuit 201 is connected to the rectifier circuit 202, and the rectifier circuit 202 can rectify the alternating current output by the RX oscillating circuit 201 to generate a rectified voltage Vrect. Based on this, the wireless charging receiver circuit 20 further includes at least one stage of voltage conversion circuit 203 connected to the rectifier circuit 202. The voltage conversion circuit 203 may convert the rectified voltage Vrect into a charging voltage (for example, 3.7 V) for the battery 50. After the charging voltage is applied to two terminals of the battery 50, a current output by the voltage conversion circuit 203 may be used to charge the battery 50.

[0044] In some embodiments of this application, the voltage conversion circuit 203 includes a DC / DC conversion circuit. The DC / DC conversion circuit may be a buck (Buck) circuit or a switched capacitor (switched capacitor, SC) circuit. An input-output voltage ratio of the buck circuit may be flexibly adjusted. For example, the input-output voltage ratio may be set to a decimal. An input-output voltage ratio of the SC circuit is an integer. However, the SC circuit can withstand a relatively high input-output voltage difference and has relatively high voltage conversion efficiency.

[0045] In addition, to control the foregoing charging process, wireless communication may be established between the wireless charging circuit 30 and the wireless charging receiver circuit 20. In this case, as shown in FIG. 3, the wireless charging circuit 30 may include a transmitter (transmit, TX) communication circuit 303 and an associated TX controller 304, and the wireless charging receiver circuit 20 may include a receiver (receive, RX) communication circuit 204 and an associated RX controller 205. The TX communication circuit 303 and the RX communication circuit 204 may be wirelessly connected via BluetoothTM, wireless broadband (wireless-fidelity, Wi-FiTM), the Zigbee (Zigbee) protocol, a radio frequency identification (radio frequency identification, RFID) technology, a long-range (long-range, Lora) wireless technology, and a near- field communication (near-field communication, NFC) technology, so that wireless communication can be established between the wireless charging circuit 30 and the wireless charging receiver circuit 20. In this way, a control signal or charging data can be transmitted between the TX communication circuit 303 and the RX communication circuit 204. The charging data may indicate a charging type. For example, the charging data may be a charging protocol, for example, a wireless charging standard Qi developed by the wireless power consortium (wireless power consortium, WPC), such as a BPP (basic power profile) protocol or an EPP (extended power profile) protocol.

[0046] Q-factor detection (QFOD):

[0047] Q-factor detection is a process before power transmission in the Qi standard. A Q factor is an indicator for measuring a loss of a resonant cavity, and is defined as a ratio of energy stored in a coil to energy lost in each cycle. In the wireless charging system, a small amount of energy is injected into the resonant cavity to generate a resonant current, and then the Q factor is calculated by measuring attenuation of the resonant current. If there is a metal foreign object between a transmitter (TX) and a receiver (RX), energy of the resonant cavity will be absorbed, resulting in that the measured Q factor (Qm) is significantly lower than a Q factor (Qr) reported by the RX. By comparing Qm and Qr, it can be determined whether a foreign object exists in the system.

[0048] Qi standard detection process: (1) Measure baseline values <semantics>ft<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">f_t< / annotation>< / semantics> and <semantics>Qt<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">Q_t< / annotation>< / semantics> of a resonant frequency and a quality factor of a power transmitter (charging cradle). (2) Measure a resonant frequency and a quality factor <semantics>ft′<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">f'_t< / annotation>< / semantics> and <semantics>Qt′<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">Q'_t< / annotation>< / semantics> of a power receiver (mobile phone) (the measurement can be performed only when the power receiver is placed together with the power transmitter). (3) Measure overall reference values <semantics>ft′(ref)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">f_t^{\prime(ref)}< / annotation>< / semantics> and <semantics>Qt′(ref)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">Q_t^{\prime(ref)}< / annotation>< / semantics> of the resonant frequencies and the quality factors of the power receiver (mobile phone) and the power transmitter (charging cradle) (note: the Qi standard does not specify x, y, and z positions of the mobile phone on the charging cradle). (4) Simulate Ping to perform object detection based on the Q factors, and obtain <semantics>ΔQ=Qt′(ref)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\Delta Q = Q_t^{\prime (ref)}< / annotation>< / semantics> – <semantics>Qt′−Qt<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">Q'_t - Q_t< / annotation>< / semantics> through calculation. (5) Determine whether <semantics>ΔQ<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\Delta Q< / annotation>< / semantics> is greater than a specified threshold <semantics>ΔQ(thr)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\Delta Q(thr)< / annotation>< / semantics>; and based on a determination result, determine whether a foreign object exists and whether to transmit power.

[0049] Power loss detection (PLoss FOD):

[0050] Power loss detection is a process during power transmission in the Qi standard. It calculates the power loss (PLoss) by measuring an input power (PIn) at the transmitter and an output power (POut) at the receiver. If there is a metal foreign object in a transmission magnetic field, an additional loss will be generated. By comparing an actually measured PLoss value with a preset threshold, it can be determined whether a foreign object exists.

[0051] Qi standard detection process: PLoss FOD is continuously performed during power transmission and is applicable to the BPP (basic power configuration profile) and EPP standards. (1) Calculate an internal loss, measure a power loss <semantics>Pt(loss1&2)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_t^{(loss1\&2)}< / annotation>< / semantics> of a resonant circuit and an inverter in the power transmitter, and measure a power loss <semantics>Pr(loss1&2)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_r^{(loss1\&2)}< / annotation>< / semantics> of a resonant circuit and a rectifier in the power receiver. (2) Calculate a dissipation power <semantics>PFO=Pi−Po−Pt(loss1&2)−Pr(loss1&2)<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_{FO} = P_i - P_o - P_t^{(loss1\&2)} - P_r^{(loss1\&2)}< / annotation>< / semantics> of a foreign object, where <semantics>Pi<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_i< / annotation>< / semantics> represents the input power of the power transmitter, and <semantics>Po<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_o< / annotation>< / semantics> represents the output power of the power receiver. (3) Compare <semantics>PFO<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">P_{FO}< / annotation>< / semantics> with a specified power loss threshold <semantics>ΔPr<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\Delta P_r< / annotation>< / semantics> to determine whether a foreign object exists (note: the threshold <semantics>ΔPr<annotation encoding="application / x-tex">\Delta P_r< / annotation>< / semantics> is mainly determined by an amplitude of a PLoss change or a capacitance change).

[0052] The current wireless charging WPC Qi standard technical solution is applicable only to a charging power below 15 W. Determining of a foreign object is inaccurate at a high power, posing safety risks. During power transmission, if a position of the receiver changes or a foreign object enters the receiver, charging will be interrupted, affecting user experience. In addition, a calibration curve of the power transmitter is valid only when the position of the receiver does not change during charging. When the position or an environment changes, charging cannot be performed.

[0053] To resolve the foregoing problem, an embodiment of this application provides a controller 304 used in a wireless charging device 30. The wireless charging device is configured to wirelessly charge an electronic device 01, and the wireless charging device includes a resonant network, an inverter circuit, and the controller 304. The resonant network includes a resonant capacitor and a transmitting coil. An input end of the inverter circuit is configured to connect to a direct current power supply, and an output end of the inverter circuit is configured to connect to the resonant network.

[0054] Refer to FIG. 4. The controller 304 is configured to:

[0055] 1. measure a target parameter of the transmitting coil, where the target parameter indicates a change status of a relative position between the electronic device 01 and the wireless charging device 30.

[0056] 2. when the target parameter indicates that the relative position between the electronic device 01 and the wireless charging device 30 changes, stop power transmission to the electronic device 01, and perform foreign object detection.

[0057] 3. when it is determined, through the foreign object detection, that there is no foreign object, resume power transmission to the electronic device 01.

[0058] This embodiment of this application allows the wireless charging device 30 to support both position movement and foreign object detection during power transmission, thereby ensuring that power transmission is stopped due to position movement instead of presence of a foreign object (in this application, power transmission can be resumed after only a short interruption).

[0059] The foreign object detection may be Q-factor detection.

[0060] This application defines a high-precision Q-factor detection procedure in power transmission, to ensure that power technology transmission is not affected after a position change. In addition, a Q factor before power transmission is more accurately calculated, thereby improving foreign object detection precision.

[0061] In a possible implementation, the target parameter is a PLoss parameter (for example, an input current and an input voltage) or an equivalent capacitance.

[0062] In a possible implementation, the controller 304 is further configured to: when the updated quality factor satisfies the preset condition, continue power transmission to the electronic device.

[0063] In a possible implementation, when resuming power transmission to the electronic device, the controller 304 is specifically configured to: update a transmission parameter, and resume power transmission to the electronic device based on an updated transmission parameter.

[0064] In a possible implementation, the transmission parameter is a parameter of a calibration curve.

[0065] A calibration curve of a power transmitter is valid only when a position of a power receiver product in a working area remains unchanged. When the position or an environment changes, the parameter curve needs to be updated.

[0066] In a possible implementation, the controller 304 is further configured to: when it is determined, through the foreign object detection, that there is a foreign object, stop power transmission to the electronic device.
