Electronic device and method of power supply protection for connection port
An electronic device and a method of a power supply protection for a connection port are provided. The electronic device includes a first connection port with a first switch and a first controller and a first control circuit. The first controller determines a first preset value according to a state of the first switch activation signal correspondingly, and detects whether the first input voltage of the first connection port is greater than the first preset value. When the first input voltage is greater than the first preset value, the first controller enables a first abnormal signal on the first abnormal state detection pin. In response to a first forced closing signal being enabled, the first controller controls the first switch to disconnect both terminals.
VEHICLE AND CHARGING SYSTEM
A vehicle is a vehicle in which a mounted power storage is charged with electric power from a charging facility, the vehicle including a communication unit that obtains a first voltage value indicating an outputtable voltage value that can be outputted from the charging facility and a processing unit that transmits to the charging facility, a third voltage value which is equal to or smaller than the first voltage value as a maximum voltage of the power storage when a second voltage value indicating a maximum voltage value of the power storage is larger than the first voltage value.
TRAILERS WITH EV CHARGING CAPACITY
