Most people have seen inductive charging in a rechargeable electric toothbrush: you may have noticed that you recharge it by placing it into the holder, but there's no direct plug. These chargers work by taking a power transformer and splitting it in half, an AC waveform is generated into one, and couples into the second coil.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis is a basic charger set, and it does work, providing \u003cstrong\u003e3.3V DC\u003c\/strong\u003e output from the output half when the input half is powered with 9V to 12VDC. You can draw as much as 500mA if the coils are 2 or 3 mm apart. If you only need \u003cstrong\u003e100 or 200mA\u003c\/strong\u003e you can be up 7mm apart. For 10mA draw, the coils can be up to half an inch (12.5mm) apart. Any non-ferrous\/non-conductive material (e.g. air, wood, leather, plastic, paper, glass) can be used between the two coils. The material doesn't affect the distance or efficiency. The coils do need to be fairly co-axial, try to get them to be parallel and have the circles line up for best power-transfer. (This is why the electric toothbrush must fit into the plastic holder, it's lining up the two coils for best efficiency.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBecause it's an air-core transformer, it's fairly inefficient. Only about \u003cstrong\u003e40%\u003c\/strong\u003e of the energy in shows up on the other end, but for low power or charging project. If you draw 5V 100mA on the output side (0.5W), you'll need 0.5W * 2.5 \/ 9V = ~150mA from the input end. The quiescent current is about 70mA at all time, even when the other coil is not anywhere near by.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThese are basic modules, probably used for some low cost toy. We don't have any datasheets or specifications for them. We do see a feedback resistor divider on the output side using 0603 SMT resistors so an advanced user could solder in different values to turn it into a different valued output.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/wHwICLPeRFs?si=OClj9kdL3sNqqddG\u0026amp;start=560\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eInductive charging transmitter and receiver coil set\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmitter board powered by 9V to 12V DC input\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOutput board provides 3.3V DC power\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaximum 500mA output current at 2-3mm coil separation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOperates at up to 7mm distance for 100-200mA draw\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWorks at 12.5mm separation for 10mA applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompatible with non-conductive materials between coils (plastic, wood, paper, glass, leather)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAir-core transformer design with approximately 40% efficiency\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eQuiescent current draw of 70mA on input side\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRequires coils to be parallel and co-axial for optimal power transfer\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eModifiable output voltage via feedback resistor divider (0603 SMT resistors)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuitable for low-power projects and wireless charging applications\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCoils are 38mm diameter\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eReceiver weight: 5.5g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTransmitter weight 5.7g\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePackage Contents\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e1x Inductive Charging Set - 3.3V @ 500mA max\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e","brand":"Adafruit","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44930761883737,"sku":"fao1789672130329","price":7.89,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0736\/5289\/5833\/files\/inductive-charging-set---33v-500ma-max_1.jpg?v=1789672134","url":"https:\/\/gymflexfit.shop\/products\/inductive-charging-set-33v-500ma-max","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
