Preferably, it may further include a power filtering circuit and a common-mode rejection capacitor. The common-mode rejection circuit is connected between the first USB interface (USB1) and the second USB interface (USB2). The filtering circuit is connected between the common-mode rejection circuit and the first USB interface. The ESD protection circuit is also connected between the common-mode rejection circuit and the first USB interface.

[0023] As Figure 2 shown, the common-mode rejection circuit includes a common-mode inductor T1, two filtering capacitors C1, C2, two resistors R1 and R2.

[0024] The filtering circuit includes two capacitors C3 and C4, which are respectively connected to the D+ and D- pins of the first USB interface.

[0025] The ESD protection circuit includes two TVS diodes, which are respectively connected to the D+ and D- pins of the first USB interface.

[0027] The common-mode rejection capacitor C8 is connected between the VSS pin of the second USB interface and the ground terminal of the first USB interface.

[0028] The present utility model adds a common-mode inductor in the differential trace for filtering, which can suppress the common-mode current, reduce the external radiation, and reduce the electromagnetic compatibility (EMC) problems.

[0029] In the design considering EMC, the USB port needs to have overcurrent protection, ESD (electrostatic discharge) protection, and a suitable filtering circuit to ensure stable data transmission.

[0030] As Figure 2 shown, TVS1 and TVS2 are ESD protection diodes, which provide ESD discharge function to prevent damage to the circuit caused by hot plugging.

C5 and C6 are connected in parallel between the USB5Vin pin of the second USB interface and the ground. The bead is connected between the USB5Vin pin of the second USB interface and the 5V pin of the first USB interface. C7 is connected between the 5V pin of the first USB interface and the ground.
