The disclosure generally relates to methods, system and apparatus to detect a rogue object placed on an A4WP charging pad (interchangeably, charging mat). In one embodiment, presence of a rogue object on a charging pad is detected by measuring currents and voltages from sensor circuits on PTU and apply machine learning algorithms to develop power leakage algorithm. The algorithm identifies false objects placed on the charging pad and obviates false alarm while simultaneously detecting presence of a rogue object which can damage the A4WP wireless charging system.

A magnetometer includes a diamond sensor, an excitation light source, a diamond sensor case, and a photodiode. The excitation light source irradiates the diamond sensor case with excitation light. In the diamond sensor case, a reflection film which reflects excitation light is formed on either a front surface or an inner surface, and the diamond sensor is stored. The photodiode detects intensity of fluorescence generated from the diamond sensor. The diamond sensor case includes a fluorescence output window and an excitation-light reception window. Fluorescence generated by the diamond sensor is output through the fluorescence output window. Excitation light emitted by the excitation light source is received through the excitation-light reception window. The photodiode is provided on a side of a second surface opposite to a first surface which is a magnetism measurement surface of the diamond sensor.

A circuit having a first, second, and third capacitor. Capacitor plates of the capacitors are connected to a first circuit node. The circuit supplies a first time-dependent voltage to the first capacitor, a second time-dependent voltage to the second capacitor, and a third time-dependent voltage to the third capacitor. The first and second voltages are clocked in antiphase. The second and third voltages are clocked in phase. The circuit has an amplifier, a synchronous demodulator, and a comparator. Inputs of the amplifier are connected to the first circuit node and ground. The synchronous demodulator alternately applies an output signal of the amplifier to inputs of the comparator, synchronously with the clock frequency of the first voltage. The circuit generates a control value dependent on an output of the comparator. The circuit changes amplitudes of the first and third voltage and/or the second voltage dependent on the control value.
