ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR CARRYING OUT OVERVOLTAGE PROTECTION OPERATION AND CONTROL METHOD THEREFOR

An electronic device may include: a resonance circuit which comprises a battery, a coil and a capacitor, and receives power wirelessly; a rectifier which rectifies AC power, provided from the resonance circuit, to DC power; a DC/DC converter which converts and outputs the DC power provided from the rectifier; a charger which charges the battery by using the converted power provided from the DC/DC converter; a first OVP circuit which selectively connects the coil to the capacitor; a second OVP circuit which is connected in parallel to the first OVP circuit; a detection circuit which detects a rectified voltage; a control circuit; and a communication circuit, wherein the control circuit, on the basis that the detected rectified voltage is equal to or greater than a first threshold voltage, controls the first OVP circuit so as to be in an off state so that the coil is not connected to the capacitor, and on the basis that the detected rectified voltage is less than a second threshold voltage, controls the first OVP circuit so that the first OVP circuit is switched from the off state to an on state so that the coil is connected to the capacitor, wherein the second threshold voltage may be smaller than the first threshold voltage.
