Abstract
A device includes a rectifier connected to a receiver coil, a first overvoltage protection apparatus connected between inputs of the rectifier and ground, and a second overvoltage protection apparatus connected between an output of the rectifier and ground, wherein in an overvoltage event, the first overvoltage protection apparatus and the second overvoltage protection apparatus are controlled based upon a comparison between a switching frequency of the device and a predetermine frequency threshold.
