Abstract:
An electronic apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include an input/output interface, the mode of which can be changed to a data communication mode or a charging mode. An electronic apparatus according to an embodiment of the present disclosure may include: a connector to which an external electronic apparatus having an interface that can be connected to an input/output interface is connected; a power supply unit for supplying power to the external electronic apparatus through a power supply line connected to the connector; a host controller for controlling data transmission from and to the external electronic apparatus; and a mode controlling unit for measuring electric current flowing through the power supply line, changing an operation mode on the basis of a result obtained by comparing the electric current value with a reference value, and controlling operations of the power supply unit and the host controller according to the operation mode.
Abstract:
An electronic device, a cable, and a method of driving the same are provided. The cable that transmits data and power includes a notification device comprising notification circuitry configured to output a notification when the power is transmitted, a first connector positioned at one end of the cable, a second connector positioned at an other end of the cable, a wire connecting the first and second connectors and including a data line that transmits the data and a power line that transmits the power, and a cable controller connected to the power line and configured to identify a characteristic of power transmitted through the power line and to change a form of the notification output from the notification device based on the identified power characteristic.
Abstract:
An electronic device is disclosed. The electronic device discloses a plurality of wireless charging antennas, a plurality of shielding partition layers, at least some of the plurality of shielding partition layers disposed between the plurality of wireless charging antennas, a plurality of external device-receiving grooves formed through spaces defined between pairs of the shielding partition layers, and a processor electrically coupled to the plurality of wireless charging antennas.
