Architecture for suppressing system current variation

A method comprising:

• measuring, by a first circuit, an amount of rectified current flowing along a pathway from an input terminal to an output terminal;
• generating, by the first circuit in response to measuring an amount of rectified current, a sense signal that indicates the amount of the rectified current;
• performing, by a third circuit, a comparison of the sense signal with a reference signal;
• drawing, from the output terminal by a second circuit, an amount of a ballast current from the rectified current;
• and
• triggering, by the third circuit in response to the comparison indicating that the rectified current is at or above a transition point where a current level of the rectified current reaches a shift current, the second circuit to decrease the amount of the ballast current drawn from the output terminal.

A device comprising:

• a transceiver configured to:
• convert, in response to wirelessly receiving electric power, the electric power into a rectified current;
• generate, in response to measuring an amount of the rectified current flowing along a pathway from an input terminal to an output terminal, a sense signal that indicates the amount of the rectified current;
• draw, from the output terminal, an amount of a ballast current from the rectified current;
• perform a comparison of the sense signal with a reference signal;
• and
• trigger, in response to the comparison indicating that the rectified current is at or above a transition point where a current level of the rectified current reaches a shift current, a circuit to decrease the amount of the ballast current drawn from the output terminal.
