Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies dynamics by making the voltage gain adjustable rather than fixed. The control circuit dynamically switches between different resonance circuits (first resonance circuit with lower voltage gain, second resonance circuit with higher voltage gain) based on battery charging needs. This allows the system to adapt to different charging stages and requirements, transforming a static system into a dynamic one that can respond to changing conditions.

Solution Approach 2:

The patent changes the voltage gain parameter by selecting different resonance circuits. The first resonance circuit provides a first voltage gain while the second resonance circuit provides a second voltage gain (higher than the first). The control circuit adjusts which circuit is active, thereby changing the system's voltage gain parameter to match different charging requirements, resolving the contradiction between simplicity and flexibility.

AI summary

A wireless charging reception circuit, a method, electronic device and a wireless charging system are described. In the wireless charging reception circuit, a control circuit may control a rectifying circuit to rectify electric signals transmitted by a first resonance circuit and/or a second resonance circuit. Since the rectifying circuit outputs different voltages after rectifying the electric signals transmitted by the different resonance circuits, the control circuit may controls the rectifying circuit to rectify the electric signals transmitted by the different resonance circuits to adjust the output voltages of the rectifying circuit.
