Ground-Shifted Touch Input Sensor For Capacitively Driving An Electrostatic Plate

View page
US Patent:
20200117278, Apr 16, 2020
Filed:
Dec 10, 2019
Appl. No.:
16/708687
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Senem E. Emgin - Mountain View CA, US
Soyoung Kim - Redwood City CA, US
Ryan J. Moynihan - San Francisco CA, US
YiBo Liu - Redwood City CA, US
International Classification:
G06F 3/01
G06F 3/044
G06F 3/041
Abstract:
An input/output interface for an electronic device receives touch and/or force input and, additionally provides haptic output to a user. In particular the input/output interface is operated in conjunction with an input surface and includes at least one input sensor and at least one haptic output element. In typical embodiments, the input sensor is ground-shifted to prevent damage to the input sensor when the haptic output element is driven.

Inductive Power Transmitter

US Patent:
20200083746, Mar 12, 2020
Filed:
Dec 7, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/213852
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Madhusudanan Keezhveedi Sampath - Cupertino CA, US
Nan Liu - Cupertino CA, US
Tianqi Li - Cupertino CA, US
YiBo Liu - Cupertino CA, US
Yasin Aalipour - Cupertino CA, US
International Classification:
H02J 50/12
H02J 7/02
H02J 5/00
H01F 38/14
Abstract:
An inductive power transmitter is provided that includes a power transmitting coil which includes transmission circuitry coupled to the power transmitting coil. The inductive power transmitter is configured to produce an inductive power transfer (IPT) signal having an IPT power so that the power transmitting coil generates an IPT field to transfer wireless power to a power receiving coil of an inductive power receiver. The inductive power transmitter includes detection circuitry coupled to the transmission circuitry and is configured to detect one or more indications of a magnetic field strength of a leakage IPT field. The inductive power transmitter includes control circuitry configured to control the transmission circuitry while the transmission circuitry is increasing the IPT power towards a charge level sufficient to charge a battery associated with the inductive power receiver at a target charge rate.

Wireless Power System With Low Power Mode Switching

US Patent:
20190312459, Oct 10, 2019
Filed:
Jul 31, 2018
Appl. No.:
16/051350
Inventors:
- Cupertino CA, US
Daniel Huber - Auckland, NZ
Jason P. Marini - Morgan Hill CA, US
Stephen C. Terry - San Jose CA, US
YiBo Liu - Cupertino CA, US
International Classification:
H02J 50/10
H02J 7/02
G06F 3/0354
Abstract:
A wireless power system has a wireless power transmitting device that uses an inverter to apply alternating-current signals to a coil. In response, the coil generates wireless power signals that are received by a coil in a wireless power receiving circuit of a wireless power receiving device. While wireless power is being transferred to the receiving device, the receiving device communicates with the wireless power transmitting device using in-band communications. The wireless power receiving device can issue a halt-wireless-power-transmission command using in-band communications to direct the wireless power transmitting device to stop transmitting wireless power. When power is not being transferred, the wireless power transmitting device transmits a series of short impulses that are monitored by the receiving device. The receiving device can direct the transmitting device to resume power transmission by adjusting an adjustable impedance circuit coupled to the wireless power receiving circuit.
