Patent attributes
Disclosed herein are active rectifiers for wireless power receivers. The exemplary active rectifier can include a first diode coupled between a first input of the rectifier and an output of the rectifier; a first transistor coupled between the first input and ground; a first capacitive snubber coupled in parallel to at least one of: (i) the first diode or (ii) the first transistor. The example active rectifier can include a second diode coupled between a second input of the rectifier and the output; a second transistor coupled between the second input and ground; and a second capacitive snubber coupled in parallel to at least one of: (i) the second diode or (ii) the second transistor.
