Abstract:
A USB hub and a method thereof. The USB hub supplies power to a USB device, is connected between the USB device and a USB host under a working power state, and comprises an upstream port, a downstream port, a power port, and a controller. The upstream port is coupled to the USB host. The downstream port is coupled to the USB device. The power port is coupled to a power source. The controller is coupled to the upstream port, the downstream port, and the power port, and determines whether the USB host has left the working power state, and determines whether the USB device is electrically chargeable, when the USB host has left the working power state. The downstream port provides power to the USB device from the power source when the USB device is electrically chargeable.
