Abstract
A wireless power receiver has over-voltage protection (OVP) circuitry that performs different techniques for different over-voltage conditions. The OVP circuitry includes controllable resistive clamp circuitry (a resistor in series with a resistor control switch) and controllable capacitive clamp circuitry (a capacitor in series with a capacitor control switch). Based on an output-based feedback signal and a reference signal, comparison circuitry generates comparison signals, based on which a controller selectively enables (i) the resistive clamp circuitry intermittently for a relatively low over-voltage condition and continuously for a higher over-voltage condition and (ii) the capacitive clamp circuit to detune the receiver, both in order to decrease the rectified output voltage.
