An invention is provided for limiting power during an unconfigured state of a USB device. The invention includes a first voltage regulator, which supplies a first voltage, in electrical communication with internal device logic of a USB device. A second voltage regulator is also included that supplies a second voltage that is higher than the first voltage. In addition, a current limiting resistor is included. The current limiting resistor is coupled to an output of the second voltage regulator and is further in electrical communication with the internal device logic of the USB device. The current limiting resistor is configured to allow a maximum current of 100 mA from being provided to the internal device logic of a USB device from the second voltage regulator.
