A heating device includes a first capacitor, a first switch, a second switch, a second capacitor, a third capacitor, a coil and a controller. The first and second switch are coupled in series at a first node, and are coupled with the first capacitor in parallel. The second capacitor is coupled to the first switch. The third capacitor is coupled to the second switch, and is coupled to the second capacitor at a second node. The coil is coupled between the first and the second node. The controller outputs a first and a second control signal to the first switch and the second switch, respectively. After the heating device received a voltage and a starting command, the controller outputs the first and the second control signal to turn on or off the first and the second switch respectively. The duty cycle of the first signal is lower than 50%.

A power detection circuit is provided for detecting current total input power of a resonant circuit. The power detection circuit includes a detection circuit and an estimation circuit. The detection circuit receives a current signal and obtains resonant-slot baseband power according to the current signal to generate the baseband power value. The current signal represents a resonant-slot current generated by the resonant circuit. The estimation circuit receives the baseband power value and estimates the current total input power according to the baseband power value to generate an estimated power value.
