Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of circuits, and in particular to a USB interface expansion circuit for intelligent electronic equipment. Background Art

[0002] USB interface, namely Universal Serial Bus (English: Universal Serial Bus, abbreviation: USB), is a serial bus standard for connecting computer systems and external devices. It is also a technical specification for input and output interfaces. It is widely used in information and communication products such as personal computers and mobile devices, and has been extended to other related fields such as photographic equipment, digital TVs (set-top boxes), and game consoles. The latest generation is USB 3.1, with a transmission speed of 10Gbit / s, a three-stage voltage of 5V / 12V / 20V, and a maximum power supply of 100W. Type-C is also a connection interface of the USB interface. The new Type-C plug type is no longer divided into positive and negative.

[0003] On the PCI bus, the entity that initiates a PCI transfer transaction is called a master device. The master device should have processing capabilities and be able to control the bus. That is, when a device acts as a master device, it is a bus master. The entity that responds to the transfer transaction is called a slave device, which is also called a target device.

[0004] Many smart electronic devices are generally equipped with standard USB interfaces for charging or data communication. However, smart electronic devices generally have only one USB interface. For example, tablet computers or smart phones generally have only one Type-C interface. Sometimes people think that one USB interface is not enough and need to be expanded to multiple USB interfaces. However, this will cause a problem. The expanded USB interface usually cannot support slave device access. Common slave devices include mouse, keyboard, USB flash drive or other OTG devices. Only the original USB interface supports the access of master and slave devices. Common master devices include computers. Utility Model Content
