Wireless Mobile Charger

Wireless Mobile Charger Circuit Design: 

This circuit mainly works on the principle of mutual inductance. Power is transferred from transmitter to the receiver wirelessly based on the principle of “inductive coupling”.

Wireless battery charger circuit design is very simple and easy. These circuits require only resistors, capacitors, diodes, Voltage regulator, copper coils and Transformer.

In our Wireless battery charger, we use two circuits. The first circuit is transmitter circuit used to produce voltage wirelessly. The transmitter circuit consists of DC source, oscillator circuit and a transmitter coil. oscillator circuit consists of two n channel MOSFETS  IRF 540 , 4148 diodes. When the DC power is given to the oscillator, current starts flowing through the two coils L1, L2 and drain terminal of the transistor. At the same time some voltage is appeared at the gate terminals of the transistors. One of the transistors is in on state while the other is in off state. Thus voltage at drain of transistor which is in off state raises and it fall through the tank circuit made of 6.8nf capacitors and transmitter coil of 0.674. Thus operating frequency is determined by using formula F=1/[2π√(LC)].

In the second circuit that is receiver circuit consists of receiver coil, rectifier circuit and regulator. When the receiver coil is placed at a distance near the inductor Ac power is induced in the coil. This is rectified by the rectifier circuit and is regulated to DC 5v using 7805 regulator. The rectifier circuit consists of 1n4007 diode and capacitor of 6.8nf. The output of regulator is connected to the battery.

How to operate this Wireless Power Transfer Circuit?

• Initially, connect the circuit as shown in the circuit diagram.
• Switch on the supply.
• Connect the battery charger at the output of the circuit.
• Place the receiver coil near the transmitter coil .
• You can observe the charging of battery.

Wireless Battery Charger Circuit Advantages:

• Usage of separate charger is eliminated.
• Phone can be charged anywhere and anytime.
• It does not require wire for charging.
• Easier than plug into power cable. 

Wireless Power Transfer Circuit Applications:

• Wireless chargers can be used to charge mobiles, camera batteries, Bluetooth headsets etc.
• This can also be used in applications like car battery charger with little modification. 
• This can also be used in medical devices.

Limitations of the Circuit: 

• Power is somewhat wasted due to mutual induction.
• It will work for very short distances only. If you want to use it for long distances, then the number of inductor turns should be high.
