[0002] Wireless charging technology originates from wireless power transmission and can be categorized into low-power and high-power wireless charging. Low-power wireless charging often utilizes electromagnetic induction, such as the Qi method used to charge mobile phones. This involves a power supply (charger) transmitting energy to a device that uses the energy to charge its battery and power itself. Because energy is transferred between the charger and the device via a magnetic field, eliminating the need for wires, neither the charger nor the device has exposed conductive contacts.

[0003] In high-power charging state, the chip's inherent parasitic resistance will generate heat, resulting in a waste of transmission power. Summary of the Invention

[0025] The present application will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The following embodiments are only used to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present application.

[0026] A wireless charging parallel chip device includes a resonance unit and a bridge rectifier chip. The resonance unit is connected to the bridge rectifier chip, and the bridge rectifier chip is connected in parallel with another rectifier chip.

[0027] The resonance unit includes at least two resonance cavities.

[0028] There are two resonant cavities, including a first resonant cavity and a second resonant cavity connected in parallel with each other, the first resonant cavity includes a first inductor Ls1 and a first capacitor Cs1 connected in series with each other, and the second resonant cavity includes a second inductor Ls2 and a second capacitor Cs2 connected in series with each other, and both ends of the first resonant cavity and the second resonant cavity are connected to the input end of the bridge rectifier chip;

[0029] A first switch M5e is provided in series between the second capacitor and the bridge rectifier chip, and a second switch is provided in series between the second inductor and the bridge rectifier chip;

[0030] Wires are connected between the first inductor Ls1 and the first capacitor Cs1 , and between the second inductor L2 and the second capacitor Cs2 .

[0031] The purpose of the wires: When two resonant cavities are connected in parallel, the inductance of L decreases and the value of C increases, ensuring stable resonant frequencies. In a preferred embodiment, the inductances of Ls1 and Ls2 are equal, and the capacitances of Cs1 and Cs2 are equal. This results in the inductance of the new resonant cavity being half the original value and the capacitance being doubled. The overall resonant frequency remains unchanged, ensuring that after the change, it matches the resonant cavity at the transmitter, ensuring maximum transmission efficiency.

[0032] The first capacitor Cs1 and the second capacitor Cs2 have the same capacitance value.

[0033] The first inductor Ls1 and the second inductor Ls2 have the same inductance value.

[0034] A wireless charging method is implemented using the wireless charging parallel resonant cavity;

[0035] In the first working state, when the first switch and the second switch are both turned off, the first resonant cavity is connected;

[0036] In the second working state, when the first switch and the second switch are both turned on, the first resonant cavity and the second resonant cavity are connected.

[0037] When the first switch and the second switch are both turned off, that is, the first switch M5e, the first transistor M6e and the second transistor M7e are all in the off state and connected to the first resonant cavity;

[0038] At this time, the device is in a low-power state and is connected to a resonant cavity. Since the current is small, it will not generate high heat.

[0039] In order to make the receiving coil easily driven by the wireless transmitting coil, Ls1 and Cs1 are 8μH and 300nH;

[0040] At low power, the first resonant cavity Ls1, Cs1 works, and the resonant frequency is:

[0041]

[0042] Among them, f T1 is the resonant frequency in the first working state, Ls1 is the inductance value of the first inductor Ls1, and Cs1 is the capacitance value of the first capacitor Cs1;

[0043] In the second working state, when the first switch and the second switch are both turned on, that is, the first switch M5e, the first transistor M6e and the second transistor M7e are all in the on state, connecting the first resonant cavity and the second resonant cavity;

[0044] In low-power operation, due to the low current, the heat generated by the resonant cavity is low, the temperature rise is not significant, and the impact on the operation of the semiconductor device is not significant.

[0045] In high-power operation, the current increases compared to low-power operation. In the aforementioned low-power state, if the resonant cavity does not change, the heat generated by the cavity increases, causing the temperature to rise, affecting the normal operation of the semiconductor device. Since the total power transmitted from the transmitter to the receiver is constant, the increase in the heat generated by the cavity reduces the actual power used for charging. To this end, in high-power operation, another resonant cavity is incorporated by changing the connection relationship, reducing the parasitic resistance of the entire resonant unit, thereby reducing the heat generated and improving the actual charging efficiency.

[0046] When the charging current increases, Rx sends a predetermined instruction to Tx, causing Tx to increase the voltage of the transmitting coil; at the same time:

[0047] DRV_M5e=BSTP;

[0048] DRV_M6e=BSTN;

[0049] Among them, DRV_M5e is the voltage of the drive signal terminal DRV_M5e of the bridge rectifier chip IC, DRV_M6e is the voltage of the drive signal terminal DRV_M6e of the bridge rectifier chip IC, BSTP is the voltage of the bridge rectifier chip connection point BSTP, and BSTN is the voltage of the bridge rectifier chip connection point BSTN.

[0050] External MOSFETs: M5e, M6e, and M7e are turned on simultaneously, with an on-resistance of 10mOhms. By properly designing Ls2 = Ls1 and Cs2 = Cs1, the inductance and capacitance of the resonant cavity are:

[0051]

[0052] Cs Total =2·Cs1

[0053] Therefore, the resonant frequency of the resonant cavity remains unchanged:

[0054]

[0055] Among them, Ls Total is the total inductance of the resonant cavity, Cs Total is the total capacitance of the resonant cavity.

[0056] However, the parallel connection of Ls1 and Ls2 reduces the series parasitic resistance of the coil to 1 / 2 of the original resistance, thus saving power consumption and reducing heat generation.

[0057] The second switch includes two field effect transistors, a first transistor M6e and a second transistor M7e;

[0058] The gate of the first transistor M6e is connected to the gate of the second transistor M7e, and is also connected to the first driving terminal DRV_M6e of the bridge rectifier chip. The source of the first transistor M6e is connected to the source of the second transistor M7e. The drain of the first transistor M6e is connected to one end of the second inductor Ls2. The drain of the second transistor M7e is connected to one end of the first inductor Ls1.

[0059] A filter capacitor is connected in parallel with the first resonant cavity and the second resonant cavity.
