[0020] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:

[0021] When connected to an external charging device:

[0022] The voltages at CC1 and CC2 of the Type-C circuit are limited by diodes D3 and D4 and resistor R2 before being fed to Q1's B terminal, turning on Q1's CE terminal and lowering the voltage at Q1's C terminal. Q1's C terminal is connected to the G terminals of Q3 and Q4, lowering the gate (G) voltages of these two terminals and turning off their DS terminals. At this point, the voltages at Q3 and Q4's D terminals are high. The D terminals of Q3 and Q4 are connected to the G terminals of Q5 and Q6, also raising the G voltages of Q5 and Q6. Q5 and Q6 are P-channel MOS transistors, thus also turning off their DS terminals. This blocks the device's 5.0V power supply to external J2.

[0023] At the same time, when Q1's CE terminal is turned on, it pulls down the G terminal voltage of the P-channel MOS transistor Q2 through D5, turning on Q2's DS terminal. At this point, the 5th pin of the communication protocol chip U1 outputs a high voltage, which is connected to Q8's G terminal, turning on Q8's DS terminal. This pulls down the G terminal voltage of Q7, which is connected to Q8's D terminal, turning on Q7's DS terminal. At this point, the external voltage VB charges the Lightning device through Q2, Q7, and USB1-C, enabling external charging of Lightning devices.

[0024] When an external slave device is connected:

[0025] The CC1 and CC2 voltages of Type-C connector J1 are 0V. The voltage applied to Q1's B terminal through D3, D4, and R2 is also 0V, placing Q1's CE terminal in the off state. Consequently, the voltage at Q1's C terminal is high, and the gates (G terminals) of Q3 and Q4, connected to Q1's C terminal, are also high, turning on Q3 and Q4's DS terminals. At this point, the D terminals of Q3 and Q4 are low. The D terminals of Q3 and Q4 are connected to the G terminals of P-channel MOS transistors Q5 and Q6, turning on Q5 and Q6's DS terminals. This opens the path for the device to supply 5.0V power to the external J1.

[0026] At the same time, because Q1's CE terminal is off, the voltage at Q2's G terminal, connected via D5, is high, turning off the DS terminal of the P-channel MOS transistor Q2. At this point, the 5th pin of the communication protocol chip U1 outputs a high voltage, connected to Q8's G terminal, turning on Q8's DS terminal. This pulls down the voltage at Q7's G terminal, connected to Q8's D terminal, turning on Q7's DS terminal. Because Q2 is off, the external voltage VB cannot pass through Q2, thus preventing the external voltage VB from charging the Lightning device through Q2, Q7, and USB1-C.

[0027] The communication mechanism works as follows:

[0028] When the Lightning plug USB1-C is inserted into a Lightning device, the communication protocol chip U1 and the Lightning device shake hands and connect. After the connection is successful, the 5th pin of the communication protocol chip U1 outputs a high level. The 5th pin of the communication protocol chip U1 is connected to the G terminal of the N-channel MOS transistor Q8, making the G terminal level of Q8 high, thereby turning on the DS terminal of Q8. The D terminal of Q8 is connected to the G terminal of the P-channel MOS transistor Q7, and the S terminal is connected to GND. The conduction of the DS terminal of Q8 pulls down the D terminal voltage, thereby also lowering the G terminal voltage of Q7, turning on the DS terminal of Q7. The external power supply channel is opened, and the D+ / D- of USB1-C are connected to the D+ / D- of J1. The Lightning device communicates with the external device through this data line.

[0029] Components not described in detail herein are prior art.

[0030] Although the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above, the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Within the scope of knowledge possessed by ordinary technicians in this field, various changes can be made without departing from the purpose of the present invention. Modifications or deformations that do not involve creative work are still within the scope of protection of the present invention.
