A system is described that turns off a high power, power supply when a device no longer needs high power. A low power, power supply or a rechargeable battery provides power to determine when the device again needs high power. The low power supply consumes a minimum possible power when the device does not need high power and the power rechargeable battery is not charged. That is, the high power and low power, power supplies are turned on or off based on the real time power consumption need of the device and the charged state of the battery. The power need of the device is monitored by a current shunt monitoring circuit and a control signal monitoring circuit.

A wireless charging device includes a casing, a transmitter driving board and a transmitter coil assembly. The wireless charging device is used for charging a receiver coil of a mobile device. The transmitter driving board generates a first heat source. The transmitter driving board has a first thermal resistance. The transmitter coil assembly generates a second heat source.

A resonant induction wireless power transfer coil assembly designed for low loss includes a wireless power transfer coil, a non-saturated backing core layer adjacent the wireless power transfer coil, an eddy current shield, a gap layer between the backing core layer and the eddy current shield, and an enclosure that encloses the wireless power transfer coil, backing core layer, gap layer and eddy current shield. The gap layer has a thickness in a thickness range for a given thickness of the backing core layer where eddy current loss in the eddy current shield is substantially flat over the thickness range. A thickness of the backing core layer and a thickness of the gap layer are selected where a total power loss comprising power loss in the backing core layer plus eddy current loss over the gap layer is substantially minimized.

A method for determining the relative position of a metal object in relation to a user device and to a transmitter antenna of an inductive charging support when charging the user device. The method includes measuring the quality factor of the transmitter antenna, measuring the quality factor of the receiver antenna, and comparing the measured quality factor of the transmitter antenna with a predetermined quality factor threshold of the transmitter antenna and comparing the measured quality factor of the receiver antenna with a predetermined quality factor threshold of the receiver antenna so as to deduce therefrom the relative position of the metal object in relation to the user device and to the transmitter antenna or the absence of an interfering metal object.
