Abstract
A dual USB port charging system that can charge at 2.1 A and also at 1 A at the same time when the power supply is only capable of 10 W. A USB port is set as a 2.1 A port via resistor network. If nothing is connected to the other USB port, it charges at 2.1 A. If a device is connected to the other USB port, it automatically detects this condition and momentarily interrupts the 5V output while resetting the USB port to 1 A (the resistor network is changed to 1 A spec). Both devices will then charge at 1 A. If the second device is disconnected while the first device is still charging at 1 A, the charging system will interrupt the output momentarily and reset the network back to 2.1 A. The first device re-registers and is now able to charge at 2.1 A again. If the second USB device is connected first while the first USB port is unused it will also set both ports as 1 A. As the standard USB port is switched between 1 A and 2.1 A network, the current limit is also automatically switched from 1 A to 2.1 A.
