INVERTER FOR INDUCTIVE POWER TRANSMITTER
A push-pull inverter for an inductive power transmitter including a DC power supply that supplies power to a first and second branches; a resonant inductor connected between a first node on the first branch and a second node on the second branch; a first switch, switched by a first switching signal, connected between the first node and a common ground; and a second switch, switched by a second switching signal, connected between the second node and the common ground.

Apparatus for Inductive Current Amplification
A device for the amplification of inductive current is disclosed. The device consists of a poly capacitor to smooth the electric flow of a circuit, a dielectric capacitor that interacts with an inductive coil, and a third trace, or conductive pathway to capture extraneous heat, distortion and electromotive flux present in the circuit. The dielectric capacitor is sized and configured to alter the normal cycles of the inductive coil to boost the magnetic flux in the coil. The third trace picks up this boosted flux to amplify the current of the inductor.
