"textContent": "A wireless-power-circuit is operable in transceiver-mode and Q-factor-measurement-mode, and includes a bridge coupled to a coil, and having an output coupled to a rectified-voltage node. An excitation circuit, when in Q-factor-measurement-mode, drives the coil with a pulsed signal. A protection circuit couples the coil to a first node when in Q-factor-measurement-mode and decouples the coil from the first node when in transceiver-mode. A Q-factor sensing circuit includes an amplifier having inputs coupled to the first node and a common mode voltage (Vcm), and generating an output signal having an output voltage. A comparator generates a comparison output indicating Vcm crossing of a voltage at the first terminal of the coil, a processing circuit generating an enable signal based upon the comparison output, and an analog-to-digital-converter, when enabled, digitizing the output voltage for use in calculating a Q-factor of the coil.",
