Quick Start Guide

15 W, 6.78 MHz Class D Wireless Power System

using the EPC2014 eGaN® FET

DESCRIPTION

The EPC9104 Wireless power demonstration system is a

class D power system capable of delivering up to 15 W into

a load operating at 6.78 MHz (Lowest ISM band). The purpose

of this demonstration system is to simplify the evaluation pro-

cess of the wireless power technology using eGaN® FETs by in-

cluding all the critical components on a single board that can

be easily connected into any existing converter. The EPC9104

wireless power system comprises four boards namely:

1) A Source Board (Transmitter or Power Amplier)

2) A Source Coil (Transmit Coil)

3) A Device Coil (Receive Coil)

4) A Device Board (Load or Receiver)

The Source board features the EPC2014 (40 V rated) enhance-

ment mode (eGaN®) eld eect transistors (FETs) in a half

bridge topology, and includes the gate driver and feedback

based phase controller that ensures operation of the system

at 6.78 MHz. The source board can also be operated using an

external oscillator or direct gate driver signals.

The Source and Device Coils are provided by WiTricity Corpo-

ration and have been pre-tuned to operate at 6.78 MHz.

The device board includes a high frequency Schottky di-

ode based full bridge rectier and output lter to deliver a

ltered unregulated DC voltage. The device board comes

equipped with various load resistances that can be manually

ASSEMBLY PROCEDURE

Although the EPC9104 demonstration unit comes mostly pre-

assembled, the standos need to be attached to the system

prior to testing. The standos raise the boards 2 inches above

the work surface to ensure that metal work surfaces do not

interfere with the magnetic elds of the coils. Figure 2 shows

the location and allocation of the standos for the system. It

is recommended to tighten the nuts by hand to prevent over

tightening them.

If the Voltage feedback cable needs to be attached, use cau-

tion when installing as the Source Coil PCB is thin and can eas-

ily break.

When attaching the heat-sink, observe that it lies at (paral-

lel) with respect to the PCB to ensure proper contact to both

FETs and the gate driver IC. Do not over tighten the screws as

this can damage the screws, thermal interface material, and/

or the FETs.

Figure 2: StandoAssembly for the EPC9104Wireless System

The EPC9104 demonstration system is easy to set up and evaluate

the performance of the EPC2014 eGaN FET in a wireless power ap-

plication. Refer to Figure 3 though Figure 6 for proper connection

and measurement setup before follow the testing procedures.

The EPC9104 can be operated using any one of three alternative

methods:

a. Using the built-in phase follower controller.

b. Using an external oscillator.

c. Using direct gating signals.

a. Operation using the built-in phase follower controller

The phase follower controller uses the coil feedback voltage to

generate the gating signals that allow for precise frequency con-

trol, regardless of load. The frequency has been pre-set by EPC to

6.78 MHz.

1. Make sure the entire system is fully assembled prior to making

electrical connections.

2. With power o, connect the main input power supply bus to

+VIN (J62). Note the polarity of the supply connector.

3. With power o, connect the control input power supply bus

to +VDD (J90). Note the polarity of the supply connector.

4. Set the load to the desired value (see table for setting jumpers

or use an appropriate external load).

5. Make sure the jumper (J61) is in the internal feedback posi-

tion (default 1-2)

6. Turn on the control supply – make sure the supply is between

7 V and 12 V range (8.5 V is recommended).

7. Turn on the main supply voltage to the required value (do

not exceed the absolute maximum voltage of 24 V on VOUT).

To ensure that the circuit starts, it is recommended to start at

8 V and increase or decrease to the desired value.

8. If the unit does not self-start in step 7, then press the start

button and hold for at least 2 seconds. Observe that the sys-

tem operates on its own once the button has been released.

Pressing the start button will connect the internal oscillator

to the feedback circuit to help establish the currents and

voltages in the system to function on its own upon release

of the start button. The internal oscillator is set to 7.372 MHz

(well above the operating point) and it may be necessary to

increase the voltage or reduce the load to start the circuit.

9. Once operational, adjust the main supply voltage and load

within the operating range and observe the output switch-

ing behavior, eciency and other parameters.

10. For shutdown, please follow steps in the reverse order. Start

by reducing the main supply voltage to 0 V followed by steps

6 through 2.

• Avoid contact with the load bank surface as it can be hot when in operation.

• Never operate the system without a load or a load less than the minimum

built into the Device board as this can cause currents in the source circuit to

become very high and lead to over-current failure.

• Always make use the ammeter is connected to the load circuit when NOT

using the built-in load current shunt. An open circuit can cause currents in

the source circuit to become very high and lead to over-current and/ or over-

voltage failure.

• Do not change load jumper settings when circuit is in operation.

• Do not press the start button after the system has started and is operating on

its own when using the coil voltage feedback method.

• Never press the start button when using an external oscillator for control.

• Never disconnect any of the coils while the circuit is in operation.

• When attempting tests with multiple device loads, always make sure at least

one device load is correctly set and physically in proximity to the source coil

such that the system operates within specications.

• When conducting tests near or at full power, always monitor the temperature

of the heat-sink and matching circuit inductors to ensure that operation is

within specications.

• Never attempt to monitor, using standard oscilloscope probes, the upper gate

voltage (SJ40) simultaneously with the lower gate voltage (SJ42) with any volt-

age applied to the main circuit (J62). The oscilloscope probes will short out the

lower device and induce the possibility of a shoot-through condition for the

upper device which can lead to failure. The only exception is if the upper gate

voltage is being monitored using an approved dierential probe, however

even this method of measurement must be limited as induced stray capaci-

tances and inductances can signicantly alter the performance of the circuit

and resulting oscillations may lead to over-voltages and ultimately failure.

• Always use the supplied hardware to re-assembly the unit and never substi-

tute metal screws, nuts and washers for the nylon versions as they may induce

short-circuits into the boards.

The EPC9104 demonstration system showcases the EPC2014 eGaN

FET in a wireless application. Although the electrical performance

surpasses that for traditional Si devices, their relatively smaller

size does magnify the thermal management requirements. The

EPC9104 is intended for bench evaluation with low ambient tem-

perature and convection cooling with load power up to 10 W (the

heat-sink MUST be mounted to the board). The addition of forced

air cooling can signicantly increase the power output of this sys-

tem, but care must be taken to not exceed the absolute maximum

die temperature of 125°C.

NOTE. The EPC9104 demonstration system does not have any current or thermal

protection on board. The source coil matching inductor will also dissipate signi-

cant power at load power > 10 W and care must be taken to force air cool this induc-

tor too during operation.

GENERAL PRECAUTIONS

• Do not operate the board without a heat-sink as the FETs will overheat and fail.

• Avoid contact with the coil feedback voltage as it can be as high as 300 Vpeak.

• Do not operate the system below resonance as the load will appear capaci-

tive and the losses in the FETs will become very high and lead to thermal

failure. When testing the system at various frequencies, always start higher

than 6.78 MHz and slowly reduce the frequency, whilst monitoring the source

coil current, until the desired setting or the peak amplitude has been reached

(resonant point). Operating below this frequency is considered below resonance.

• Do not operate the system on a solid metal (or conductive) surface without

the standos provided as this will shunt the magnetic eld and lead to over-

current of the FETs.

• Do not apply magnetic materials to the coil magnetic elds as this will shift the

resonant operating points and can lead to failure.

b. Operation using an external oscillator

Using an external oscillator allows the user to specify an operating

frequency. The external oscillator voltage may be pure AC (sine or

square wave) or have a DC oset (seeTable 1 for voltage limits).

1. Prior to commencing with testing, jumper (J61) will need to

be moved from its 1-2 position (default) to position 2-3.

2. Using this method, it is not necessary to connect the source

coil feedback voltage RF cable between the source coil and

the source board

3. Make sure the entire system is fully assembled prior to making

electrical connections.

4. With power o, connect the main input power supply bus to

+VIN (J62). Note the polarity of the supply connector.

5. With power o, connect the control input power supply bus

to +VDD (J90). Note the polarity of the supply connector.

6. Set the load to the desired value (see table for setting jumpers

or use an appropriate external load).

7. Turn on the control supply – make sure the supply is between

7 V and 12 V range (8.5 V is recommended).

8. Turn on the main supply voltage starting at 0 V and increase

slowly to the required value (do not exceed the absolute

maximum voltage of 24 V on V

OUT). Observe that the system

operates.
