Hand tool battery including a bridge rectifier
A hand tool battery includes a charging coil and a bridge rectifier. The bridge rectifier has at least two rectifying arrangements for synchronous rectification.
1. A hand tool battery, comprising:
a charging coil; and
a bridge rectifier, wherein the bridge rectifier has at least two rectifying arrangements for synchronous rectification,
wherein the bridge rectifier has a shut-off device to switch the at least two rectifying arrangements simultaneously to a passive state at least during a no-load operation.
2. The hand tool battery of claim 1 , wherein a same DC voltage potential is present at one power terminal of each of the two rectifying arrangements.
3. The hand tool battery of claim 1 , wherein the bridge rectifier includes a control arrangement to generate control signals of the rectifying arrangement.
4. The hand tool battery of claim 3 , wherein the control arrangement is configured to adjust the control signals to a switch-off voltage at least during the no-load operation.
5. The hand tool battery of claim 1 , wherein the bridge rectifier has at least one voltage limitation device which limits maximum values of control signals of the rectifying arrangement during a rectifying operation.
6. The hand tool battery of claim 5 , wherein the voltage limitation device includes at least one voltage reference arrangement.
7. The hand tool battery of claim 1 , wherein the shut-off device has at least one switch-off transistor to influence at least the control arrangement as a function of a switch-off signal.
8. The hand tool battery of claim 1 , wherein the bridge rectifier includes a control circuit to control the rectifying arrangement as a function of its switching voltage.
9. A circuit, comprising:
a charging coil; and
a bridge rectifier having at least two rectifying arrangements for synchronous rectification
wherein the bridge rectifier has a shut-off device to switch the at least two rectifying arrangements simultaneously to a passive state at least during a no-load operation.
