[0024] In the process of studying how to send high-power charging energy while reasonably controlling heat generation in wireless charging, the inventor found that when a power supply device (such as a charger) uses a relatively high power to charge electronic products, the operating temperature will also be relatively high due to the high power, resulting in a relatively large amount of heat generation, which leads to instability of the entire charging or charging system. Based on this, the embodiments of the present disclosure propose a system, a wireless charging terminal, and a terminal that can increase the input voltage for wireless charging in high-power scenarios, but at the same time can reduce path current and path loss, reduce heat generation, and improve charging efficiency.

It should be noted that the terminal can be a hardware device with an operating system such as a mobile phone or a tablet computer.

[0026] Figure 1 The figure is a schematic diagram of a charging system structure of an electronic device provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. Figure 1 As shown, the charging system 100 of the electronic device may include: a wireless charging terminal 110 and a terminal 120 .

[0027] The wireless charging terminal 110 includes a charger, a wireless transmission controller and a transmitting coil. The charger is used to output a first voltage to the wireless transmission controller. The wireless transmission controller is used to boost the first voltage to obtain a second voltage; the second voltage is greater than the first voltage. The transmitting coil is used to output wireless charging capability at the second voltage.

[0028] The terminal 120 is used to step down the charging voltage received from the wireless charging terminal, generate a charging voltage matching the terminal battery, and charge the terminal battery with the charging voltage.

[0034] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the wireless transmission controller performs a 1:1.5 boost process on the first voltage to obtain a second voltage of 30V; the transmitting coil outputs a wireless charging capability of 30V. In this embodiment, the 30V charging voltage is innovatively used for wireless charging, which can effectively reduce the charging current on the transmitting coil, thereby reducing the heat dissipation. In addition, since the 30V voltage is used for charging at the wireless charging end, the 30V voltage cannot directly charge the battery. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal is also required to step down the 30V voltage to meet the charging requirements of the battery.

[0035] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal 120 further includes: a second communication module, communicating with the wireless charging terminal, and used to determine the charging voltage of the wireless charging terminal.

[0044] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second communication module further includes:

[0045] The fifth communication unit is used to send a fan control instruction to the wireless charging terminal.

[0046] Among them, the wireless charging terminal 110 can be used to increase the output voltage of the wireless charging terminal 110 when performing high-power charging, so that the current on the transmitting coil can be reduced while the charging power remains unchanged, thereby reducing the heat dissipation of the transmitting coil. At the same time, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, since the voltage output by the wireless charging terminal 110 is increased, the voltage of the receiving coil is also increased accordingly, so the current on the receiving coil can also be reduced, thereby effectively reducing the heat dissipation of the receiving coil. Therefore, the embodiment of the present disclosure can effectively reduce heat generation and improve charging efficiency.

[0047] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the wireless charging terminal 110 wirelessly charges the terminal 120. During high-power charging, the wireless charging terminal 110 increases the charging voltage, thereby reducing the working current of the coil and further reducing the heat generation.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal 120 includes a wireless receiving coil, a wireless receiving controller and a step-down processor. The wireless receiving coil is used to receive a charging signal from a wireless charging terminal, and the charging voltage corresponding to the charging signal is higher than a preset voltage. The wireless receiving controller is used to process the charging voltage received by the wireless receiving coil to obtain a third DC voltage. The step-down processor is used to step-down the third voltage to obtain a fourth voltage within a charging range acceptable to the terminal, and charge the battery of the terminal through the fourth voltage.

[0049] In one embodiment of the present disclosure, wireless communication can be performed between the wireless charging terminal 110 and the terminal 120, and the terminal 120 can send the terminal status to the wireless charging terminal 110, for example, the current battery power is 5%, or the current charging power is 10W, etc. It should be noted that the terminal status may include at least one of the following states: remaining power, temperature, charging power, etc.

[0050] As an example, after receiving the terminal status sent by the terminal 120, the wireless charging terminal 110 can determine the target voltage for wireless charging to be output to the terminal according to the terminal status, and output the wireless charging capability to the terminal at the target voltage. It should be noted that the target voltage includes a target voltage value or a target voltage level.

[0051] For example, if the wireless charging end receives a current power level of 5%, it can determine to output wireless charging capability to the terminal at a high voltage level. For another example, if the wireless charging end receives a current power level of 50%, it can determine to output wireless charging capability at a voltage of 20V.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, after the wireless charging terminal 110 determines the target voltage for wireless charging to be output to the terminal, the charger outputs a first voltage to the wireless transmission controller; the wireless transmission controller performs a voltage boost process on the first voltage to obtain a second voltage; the second voltage is greater than the first voltage; the transmitting coil outputs the wireless charging capability at the second voltage.

[0054] As an example, after the terminal 120 receives the target voltage sent by the wireless charging end, the terminal 120 can process the target voltage to obtain a DC voltage; then step down the DC voltage to obtain a charging voltage that matches the terminal battery, and charge the terminal battery with the charging voltage that matches the terminal battery.

[0055] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the wireless charging system 100 also includes a wired charging terminal. The wired charging terminal includes a charging component and a wired charging controller, and the wired charging controller is connected to a step-down processor. The charging component generates a charging voltage. The wired charging controller processes the charging voltage generated by the charging component to obtain a wired charging voltage for wired charging of the terminal, and performs wired charging of the terminal after being processed by the step-down processor.

[0056] As a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 2 As shown, Figure 2 The wireless charging terminal 210 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a wireless charging terminal provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The wireless charging terminal 210 includes: a charger 211, a wireless transmission controller 212, and a transmitting coil 213. The wireless charging terminal 210 can be connected to Figure 1 The wireless charging terminal 110 of the illustrated embodiment has the same function and structure.

[0057] The charger 211 outputs a first voltage to the wireless transmission controller 212; the wireless transmission controller 212 performs a voltage-boosting process on the first voltage to obtain a second voltage; the second voltage is greater than the first voltage; and the transmitting coil 213 outputs wireless charging capability at the second voltage.

[0058] As a possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the wireless charging terminal further includes: a first communication module.

[0059] The first communication module communicates with the terminal to determine the target voltage for wireless charging output to the terminal; the wireless transmission controller 212 sets the second voltage as the target voltage; and controls the first voltage to be boosted to obtain the target voltage.

[0060] That is to say, when the wireless charging end 210 communicates with the terminal, the first communication module can obtain the terminal status sent by the terminal. After obtaining the terminal status, the charger 211 outputs a first voltage to the wireless transmission controller 212; the wireless transmission controller 212 boosts the first voltage to obtain a second voltage; the second voltage is greater than the first voltage; the wireless transmission controller sets the second voltage as the target voltage; and controls the first voltage to be boosted to obtain the target voltage, and the transmitting coil 213 outputs the wireless charging capability at the target voltage.

[0061] As a possible implementation method of an embodiment of the present disclosure, the first communication module determines the target voltage for wireless charging output to the terminal when establishing a connection with the terminal; and / or, during the wireless charging process, communicates with the terminal to determine the target voltage for wireless charging output to the terminal.

[0062] That is to say, as an example, when the wireless charging terminal is connected to the terminal through the first communication module, it can determine the target voltage of wireless charging output to the terminal; as another example, during the wireless charging process, when the wireless charging terminal communicates with the terminal through the first communication module, it can determine the target voltage of wireless charging output to the terminal. For example, during the wireless charging process, when the wireless charging terminal communicates with the terminal through the first communication module, it can obtain the battery power of the terminal, thereby determining the target voltage of wireless charging output to the terminal.

[0063] As a possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first communication module includes: a first communication unit and a second communication unit.

[0064] Among them, the first communication unit receives the target voltage sent by the terminal; the target voltage includes a target voltage value or a target voltage level; the second communication unit obtains the terminal status and determines the target voltage according to the terminal status, and the target voltage includes a target voltage value or a target voltage level.

[0065] That is, the first communication module communicates with the terminal and can determine the target voltage for wireless charging to be output to the terminal.

[0066] As an example, the first communication unit in the first communication module of the wireless charging terminal can receive a target voltage sent by the terminal, and according to the target voltage, a target voltage for wireless charging output to the terminal can be determined.

[0067] As another example, the second communication unit in the first communication module of the wireless charging terminal can receive the terminal status sent by the terminal, and determine the target voltage according to the terminal status, where the target voltage includes a target voltage value or a target voltage level.

[0068] It should be noted that the target voltage level may include but is not limited to a high voltage level, a medium voltage level, a low voltage level, etc. The terminal state may include at least one of the following states: remaining power, temperature, charging power, etc.

[0069] For example, the second communication unit receives the terminal status sent by the terminal that the current remaining power is 5%, and can determine that the target voltage level is a high voltage level, and charge the terminal at the high voltage level. As a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the wireless transmission controller includes: a boost circuit; or a wireless transmission chip.

[0070] In the disclosed embodiment, the boost circuit in the wireless transmission controller can boost the first voltage to obtain a second voltage. As an example, the first voltage is boosted by 1:1.5 to obtain a second voltage of 30V; the transmitting coil outputs wireless charging capability at 30V. For example, taking the first voltage as 20V as an example, the first voltage is boosted by 1:1.5 to obtain a second voltage of 30V, and the transmitting coil outputs wireless charging capability at 30V.

[0071] In order to further reduce the heat generated by the charging system and ensure the stability of the charging system, the wireless charging end also includes: a cooling fan.

[0072] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the first communication module communicates with the terminal to determine the working state and / or intensity of the cooling fan; the cooling fan works according to the working state and / or intensity.

[0073] That is to say, when the first communication module of the wireless charging terminal communicates with the terminal, the working state and strength of the cooling fan can be determined according to the target voltage value or target voltage level. For example, when the first communication module of the wireless charging terminal communicates with the terminal, it is determined to charge the terminal at a high voltage level. In order to prevent the charging system from generating too much heat, the strength of the fan can be increased to reduce the heat generated by the charging system. For example, the speed of the fan can be increased to reduce the heat generated by the charging system.

[0074] As a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present disclosure, Figure 3 As shown, Figure 3 The terminal 310 is a schematic diagram of a structure of a terminal provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure. The terminal 310 includes: a wireless receiving coil 311, a wireless receiving controller 312 and a voltage reduction processor 313. The terminal 310 can be connected to Figure 1 The terminals 120 of the illustrated embodiments have the same function and structure.

[0075] Among them, the wireless receiving coil 311 is used to receive a charging signal from the wireless charging end, and the charging voltage corresponding to the charging signal is higher than the preset voltage; the wireless receiving controller 312 is used to process the charging voltage received by the wireless receiving coil to obtain a third DC voltage; the step-down processor 313 is used to step-down the third voltage to obtain a fourth voltage within the charging range acceptable to the terminal, and charge the battery of the terminal through the fourth voltage.

[0076] As a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present application, the terminal 310 further includes: a second communication module.

[0077] The second communication module communicates with the wireless charging terminal to determine the charging voltage of the wireless charging terminal.

[0078] That is to say, when the terminal 310 communicates with the wireless charging end, the terminal status can be sent to the wireless charging end through the second communication module in the terminal 310. After receiving the terminal status sent by the terminal, the wireless charging end adjusts the transmission voltage of the wireless charging end to the target voltage and sends a charging signal to the terminal. The wireless receiving coil 311 in the terminal is used to receive the charging signal from the wireless charging end, and the charging voltage can be correspondingly calculated according to the charging signal. The wireless receiving controller 312 is used to process the charging voltage received by the wireless receiving coil to obtain a third DC voltage; then, in order to reduce the charging temperature of the charging system, when the third voltage belongs to the high voltage range (such as 25V-35V), the step-down processor 313 can be used to step down the third voltage to obtain a fourth voltage within the charging range that can be accepted by the terminal, and charge the battery of the terminal through the fourth voltage.

[0079] As one embodiment of the present disclosure, the second communication module is used to determine the charging voltage of the wireless charging end when establishing a connection with the wireless charging end; and / or, during the wireless charging process, communicate with the wireless charging end to determine the charging voltage of the wireless charging end.

[0080] That is to say, as an example, when the second communication module in the terminal establishes a connection with the wireless charging end, the charging voltage of the wireless charging end can be determined; as another example, during the wireless charging process, the second communication module in the terminal communicates with the wireless charging end to determine the charging voltage of the wireless charging end.

[0081] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, when a charging abnormality occurs in the terminal, the wireless receiving controller processes the abnormality to generate a fifth voltage, and sends the fifth voltage to the wireless charging terminal.

[0082] As an example, if the abnormality is a high temperature alarm, the wireless receiving controller reduces the charging voltage; as another example, if the abnormality is a power outage, the wireless receiving controller communicates with the wireless charging terminal through the second communication module and restarts charging with a low-level voltage.

[0083] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal further includes: an exception handling module.

[0084] The abnormality processing module is used to process the abnormality to generate a fifth voltage when a charging abnormality occurs, and send the fifth voltage to the wireless charging terminal.

[0085] As an example, the exception handling module includes: a first exception handling unit and a second exception handling unit.

[0086] Wherein, the first abnormality processing unit is used for reducing the charging voltage to obtain a fifth voltage if the abnormality is a high temperature alarm, and sending the fifth voltage to the wireless charging terminal; and / or

[0087] The second exception processing unit is used for communicating with the wireless charging terminal to restart charging with a low-level voltage if the exception is power failure.

[0088] As a possible implementation of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the terminal 310 further includes: a wired charging interface and a wired charging controller.

[0089] In order to obtain a voltage within a charging range acceptable to the terminal, in an embodiment of the present disclosure, a wired charging controller is used to control the charging interface to be connected to a step-down processor when a charger is connected to the wired charging interface.

[0090] In the disclosed embodiment, the step-down processor is used to step-down the third voltage to obtain a fourth voltage within a charging range acceptable to the terminal, and charge the battery of the terminal through the fourth voltage. As an example, the step-down processor can select a corresponding step-down level according to the third voltage, and step-down the third voltage according to the step-down level. It should be noted that the wireless receiving controller includes a step-down circuit and / or a wireless receiving control chip.

[0091] For example, multiple step-down levels can be pre-set, such as 6:2, 4:2, and 2:2. If the third voltage corresponds to a high voltage range, such as a high voltage range of 25V-35V, the step-down processor uses a step-down level of 6:2 to step down the third voltage; if the third voltage corresponds to a medium voltage range, such as a medium voltage range of 15V-25V, the step-down processor uses a step-down level of 4:2 to step down the third voltage; if the third voltage corresponds to a low voltage range, such as a low voltage range of 5V-15V, the step-down processor uses a step-down level of 2:2 to step down the third voltage.

[0092] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second communication module includes: a third communication unit and a fourth communication unit.

[0093] Among them, the third communication unit is used to send the target voltage to the wireless charging end, wherein the target voltage includes a target voltage value or a target voltage level; the target voltage is determined by the terminal according to the current state; the fourth communication unit is used to send the terminal state of the terminal to the wireless charging end.

[0094] That is to say, when the terminal communicates with the wireless charging end, the terminal can determine to send the target voltage to the wireless charging end according to the current state. The third communication unit can be used to send the target voltage to the wireless charging end. The fourth communication unit can be used to send the terminal state of the terminal to the wireless charging end.

[0095] As a possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the second communication module further includes: a fifth communication unit, configured to send a fan control instruction to the wireless charging terminal.

[0096] That is to say, in order to prevent the fan from being too fast and causing excessive noise, thus affecting the user's charging experience, the fifth communication unit can be used to send fan control instructions to the wireless charging end to control the fan speed, reduce noise, and improve user experience.

[0097] In order to make those skilled in the art understand the present disclosure more clearly, examples are now given to illustrate.

[0098] For example, such as Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the wireless charging path: at the TX end, through the 5-20V charger input, the voltage is boosted to generate a voltage close to 5-30V (up to approximately 6 times the battery voltage), and then transmitted to the RX end in a wireless form.
