Power supply equipment includes an adapter which converts power from a power source to DC power for powering an electronic device. The power supply equipment includes circuitry which produces a data signal for use by the electronic device to control power drawn by the electronic device. A cable, extends from the adapter. The power supply equipment further includes a tip which has an input side and an output side. The input side of the tip is detachable mateable to the cable. The output side of the tip is detachably mateable to the electronic device. The tip output side has a shape and size dependent on the shape and size of a power input opening of the electronic device. The tip provides the data signal, as well as the DC power, to the electronic device. Different tips may be used to provide appropriate data signals to different electronic devices.

A power supply provides a low touch-temperature surface by utilizing a plurality of spaced apart pegs which extend from a surface of a case away from heat generating components enclosed within the case. The top and side surfaces of the pegs and the surface of the case not occupied by the pegs are entirely directly exposed to ambient air. The tops of the pegs provide a touch surface having a temperature which is cooler than that at the base of the pegs. The pegs are preferably arranged to minimize heat transfer between adjacent pegs.

Power supply equipment includes circuitry for converting an input voltage to first and second DC voltages provided at respective connection points. One of the connection points is electrically coupled to a first cable having at its distal end a connector or connector adapter which has a shape and pin out compatible for detachably mating with a first electronic device. A second connection point is electrically coupled to a second cable having at its distal end a connector or connector adapter which has a shape and pin out compatible for detachably mating with a second electronic device. Either or both of the cables may be electrically coupled to their respective connection points via respective connectors which detachably mate with respective proximal end connectors on the cables. The power supply powers the first electronic device at the first DC voltage and the second electronic device at the second DC voltage.

Power supply equipment includes circuitry for converting an input voltage to first and second DC output voltages. At least one of the output voltages is programmable in response to a voltage control signal. A first output port provides the first DC output voltage to a first electronic device and a second output port provides the second DC output voltage to a second electronic device. The conversion circuitry provides power sufficient to simultaneously power the first electronic device at the first DC voltage and the second electronic device at the second DC voltage.

A power supply system includes an adapter to receive power from a power source, and output a regulated output voltage (Vout). A tip receives Vout from the adapter, and output Vout to an electronic device. The tip includes active circuitry to adjust a programming voltage (Vprog). Vprog is fed back to the adapter to control a magnitude of Vout.

A progammable power supply for providing a regulated DC output power is disclosed. The power supply provides the output power to any one of a plurality of electronic devices adapted for receiving the output power at an operational voltage or an operational current. The power supply receives a programming signal to maintain the output power at the operational voltage or operational current associated with a particular selected electronic device. Accordingly, by varying the programming signal, the power supply can be programmed to provide output power to any one of several electronic devices having differing input power requirements.
