Abstract

A wireless power transmitter circuit includes a power converter circuit, a power inverter circuit, an LC circuit, a resonant transmitter circuit, and a control circuit. The LC circuit includes an inductor and a capacitor, wherein an reactance of the LC circuit is substantially zero. The LC circuit is for converting the AC output current to a coil current. The resonant transmitter circuit includes at least one transmitter coil and a variable capacitor circuit, wherein the coil current flows through the at least one transmitter coil to generate a resonant wireless power. The control circuit generates a capacitance adjustment signal for adjusting an impedance of the variable capacitor circuit, such that the resonant transmitter circuit substantially operates in an impedance matched condition.
