A portable device includes: a modem configured to perform power line communication with a charger external to the portable device; and a charging circuit configured to, from first power provided by the charger, charge a battery and supply power to an electrical load, wherein the charging circuit is further configured to cut off the supply of the first power to the electrical load and supply second power from the battery to the electrical load.

Portable device communicating with charger and method of operating the same

A first mobile device including; first charging terminals, a power line communication modem configured to supply power to a second mobile device connected with the first charging terminals and to perform data communication with the second mobile device, wherein the data communication includes a plurality of data packets, and a microcontroller unit configured to generate primary data including a first data packet among the plurality of data packets, wherein the first data packet includes a first header and a first data message, wherein the first header includes a first code indicating a purpose for the first data packet, and the first data message includes upper bits indicating a destination for data and lower bits indicating a number of data packets included in a first group in the data.

Mobile device performing data communication through charging terminals and mobile system including same

A device for detecting an attachment and detachment of a portable device according to example embodiments of the present disclosure may include a first terminal and a second terminal configured to be connected to the portable device; a pull-up circuit connected to the first terminal; a charging circuit configured to generate an output voltage for charging the portable device; and a controller configured to control the charging circuit to generate the output voltage when a voltage of the first terminal drops in a detachment state, and determine whether to transition to an attachment state based on an output current output through the first terminal during a first period in which the output voltage is generated.

Device and method of detecting attachment and detachment of portable device

A mobile system includes a first mobile device configured to output a signal having a level less than or equal to a reference level on the basis of a charged state of a battery in the first mobile device and a second mobile device configured to receive the signal and to selectively provide power to the first mobile device on the basis of a duration time for which a level of the signal is maintained to be less than or equal to the reference level and a toggle time for which the signal is toggled.

Mobile device and operating method thereof

A portable device and an operating method of the same are provided. The portable device includes a power line communication module performing power line communication with an external device, a memory module storing firmware data, and a controller controlling the power line communication module and the memory module, wherein the power line communication module sequentially provides an update initiation signal and firmware data to the external device, and provides an update end signal to the external device in response to a response signal transmitted by the external device.
