1909002 Wireless Charger providing
USB Type-C interface
Installation Guide
Purpose
The purpose of this document is to provide information on how to integrate the
Wireless Power Transmitter (Model: 81909001) and Receiver (Model: 81909002)
with
FCC ID: 2AOR81909002 into a final application. Incorrect integration or use
may infringe compliance rules meaning recertification may be required.
Module Description
The Wireless Power modules (Tx= power transmitter, Rx = power receiver) are
designed to provide a high-efficiency power transmission of up to 60W to a USB
Type-C device. This power transmission is using a pair of tightly coupled
power coils. An additional pair of inductively coupled coils is used to
transfer control information from the power receiver back to the transmitter
to provide a safe operation at the optimum working frequency.
The power transmission module input voltage is 24V DC.
To maximize the system efficiency, the power transmission between Wireless
Transmitter and Receiver is realized using resonant circuits. These resonant
circuits additionally provide the ability to vary the transmitted power by
changing the switching frequency. By increasing the switching frequency, the
available power on the receiver side decreases. For accurate output voltage
regulation, a control loop is necessary. The output conditions like output
current, voltage, and power are measured on the receiver side and sent to the
power transmitter. If corrections are necessary, the transmitter will change
the switching frequency to the desired value.
An appropriate control loop needs a fast signal transmission with little
delay. This transmission is accomplished using a second pair of coupled coils.
Like the power transmission coils, the signal coils form a near field coupling
system thus the intended use of radio waves isn’t necessary.
The following picture shows a block diagram of the complete system including
the Transmitter and Receiver.
Application Examples
The system is designed to be used as a Wireless Charger for USB Type-C powered
devices in medical environments (e.g. tablets). The Wireless Power Transmitter
must be mounted on and powered by a base station. The Wireless Power Receiver
can be connected with the USB Type-C device either using a USB type C
compliant cable. The USB type-C device together with the Wireless Power
Receiver can be used in mobile applications, the base station including the
Wireless Power Transmitter is stationary and not intended for mobile usage. In
order to start the charging process, the Power Receiver must be placed close
to the Power Transmitter. Charging will only take place during non-mobile
stationary usage. The power transmitter is stationary and the power receiver
will be installed inside a non-stationary device. The power receiver and the
device which will be charged are to be mounted in the same enclosure, so it’s
not possible to hum
The picture shows the use cases “Not Charging” and “Charging”. The Power
Transmitter is depicted yellow, the Power Receiver red.
The following pictures show an example application where the Wireless Power
Transmitter is wall mounted on a computer-tomography scan unit and the
Receiver is connected to a tablet which is used for supervision. In this
situation, the tablet isn’t charging.
The following pictures show part of the front of a medical stationary device. The Transmitter is mounted behind the front and not accessible on the back and side:
The following pictures show the backside of the front of the stationary medical device where the Transmitter is mounted: The following pictures show the enclosure for both Wireless Receiver and tablet with Receiver mounted and tablet not mounted. The following pictures show the enclosure for both Wireless Receiver and tablet with the Receiver and tablet mounted. The tablet is connected to the Receiver using a USB cable (see picture above and section “Integration into products”. The following pictures show the enclosure with the tablet and Wireless Receiver put on top of the stationary medical device. This is the typical setup for the charging tablet:
