[0056] Fig. 3 is pictorial snapshot illustrating schematic representation of the integrated charging system in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention. The integrated charging system 100 uses a BPP (Basic Power Profile ) mode or an EPP (Extended Power Profile) mode for wireless charging. In the BPP (Basic Power Profile ) mode and an EPP (Extended Power Profile) mode a USB Type C Cable with or without a Portable Device is not connected to the integrated charging system and the mode of operation is normally set as wireless charging mode. During this mode of operation Switch Q9 is turned off and wireless power transfer full bridge switches Q5 & Q8 along with switches Q7 & Q6 are operated close to 50% duty cycle with 180 degree phase shift between the pair. These WPT switches are operated either with fixed or variable switching frequency as required by system gain requirements. The bus voltage to the WPT bridge stage shall also be controlled through the buck boost converter, whenever required.
[0057] In accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, the buck-boost power converter 116 works in a buck mode, boost mode and/or a buck-boost mode. Particularly, in the boost mode the charging voltage exceeds input voltage. And, in the buckmode charging voltage is less than input voltage. Further, the buck-boost power converter is operably configured to the USB BC/PD port for establishing the wired connection.
[0058] During buck mode operation switch Q3 is permanently on and the Q4 is permanently off, voltage regulation is achieved via PWM on Q1 Switch and inverted PWM on Q2 serving as synchronous rectifier along with intrinsic body diode operation of Q2. During Boost mode operation switch Q1 is permanently on and the Q2 is permanently off, voltage regulation is achieved via PWM on Q4 Switch and inverted PWM on Q3 serving as synchronous rectifier along with intrinsic body operation diode of Q3.
[0059] Further, integrated charging system 100 used a USB connection for establishing wired charging. In particular, when the USB Type C Cable with or without the Portable Device is connected to the system, the mode of operation set by the system is wired charging mode. During this mode of operation WPT switches Q5, Q6, Q6 and Q7 are inactive and are turned off. The bus voltage to the USB-C VBUS shall be controlled through the buck boost converter.
[0060] During buck mode operation switch Q3 is permanently on and the Q4 is permanently off, Voltage regulation is achieved via PWM on Q1 Switch and inverted PWM on Q2 serving as synchronous rectifier along with intrinsic body diode operation of Q2.
[0061] During Boost mode operation switch Q1 is permanently on and the Q2 is permanently off, Voltage regulation is achieved via PWM on Q4 Switch and inverted PWM on Q3 serving as synchronous rectifier along with intrinsic body diode operation of Q3. During this mode of operation the USB-C port Data lines D+ and D- are configured to either provide a low impedance short between D+ and D- and/or provide for USB-C communication for other battery charging power capabilities as required by USB Type-C power delivery protocols. Switch Q9 is enables post handshake for power delivery to the USB Port.
[0062] Further, the integrated charging system 100 performs auto detection of portable device when connected to USB port. The USB connection is any of a USB Type C Connection, USB Type A Connection for wired charging.
[0063] In a USB Type C Connector (Having separate GND Pins) the USB Type C cable with or without the portable device is connected to the receptacle all GND pins gets shorted together on the Plug side. Initially before connector engagement 3 internal at the receptacle are connected together on the PCB. The 4th Ground Pin is pulled up via a pull-up resistor and is connected to a GPIO Pin of the MCU and when the cable is inserted the GPIO is connected to down to ground potential and is sensed by the MCU which is input confirming connection of a plug to the USB Port. Power stage for USB BC port is enabled only after the aforementioned operation is complete.
[0064] In the USB Type C Connector having separate Vbus pins isolated the USB Type C cable with portable device is connected to the receptacle all the pins gets shorted together. Initially the 3 internal pins at the receptacle side is shorted on the PCB and connected to a fixed voltage source at the Input side and the 4th pin that is used for detection is pulled to ground with a resistor of known impedance, whenever the cable is connected to the receptacle this pin goes high or experiences a change in potential, this change is sensed by the Microcontroller. The controller takes the decision on enabling power to the USB BC port pins.
[0065] In USB Type C / Type A Connector, a USB Type C / Type Cable/ a CC pin with the portable device is connected to the receptacle the voltage on D+ and D- measures through internal circuitry of the transmitter module 110. The transmitter 110 communicates on D+ and D- via USB communication protocol if required for a handshake. The power may be enabled on the connector post handshake through switch S9 (shown in Fig. 3). It may be noted the handshake may be done as per Portable device manufacturers’ recommendation and other recommendations under USB-IF.
[0066] Further, the integrated charging system 100 also auto detects a wireless power transfer enabled portable devices in alternate embodiments.
[0067] While the detailed description has shown, described, and pointed out novel features as applied to various alternatives, it can be understood that various omissions, substitutions, and changes in the form and details of the devices or algorithms illustrated can be made without departing from the scope of the disclosure. As can be recognized, certain alternatives described herein can be embodied within a form that does not provide all of the features and benefits set forth herein, as some features can be used or practiced separately from others.
