Abstract
Resonant rectifier topologies are described for tuning the rectifier so that it performs from an electromagnetic interference (EMI) point of view, while maintaining the voltage regulation at the output that a series tuned rectifier would maintain. Examples include a an inductor of a receive coupler and a rectifier connectable to drive a load, along with first and second filter elements that are each configured to provide an impedance inversion function in a frequency band and that are connected in series between the inductor of a receive coupler and rectifier. In one set of examples, both filter elements are implemented as pair filters, while in other examples the first filter element includes the inductor of a receive coupler in parallel with a capacitance connected to ground.
