Abstract:
A method and device are provided for activating certain functions of a powered-off device having a serial data bus interface when it is attached to a powered device via the serial bus interface. On detection of a voltage on the power line of the serial bus, the processor of the device is booted in a special operation mode, wherein certain functions of the serial data bus interface can be used without powering the complete device. The device may then be enumerated by the attached host device and for example allow access to its memory unit or use the power signal on the serial bus interface for battery charging.
