A system on a chip (SoC) with a Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter (UART) interface includes a UART interface circuit, a detection circuit, and a control circuit. The UART interface circuit includes: a plurality of UART signal pads for receiving and transmitting signals; and a UART voltage pad for receiving an external operating voltage. The detection circuit is configured to detect the magnitude of the external operating voltage and thereby generate a detection result. The control circuit is configured to determine setting of a supply voltage for the plurality of UART signal pads according to the detection result. The control circuit makes the setting of the supply voltage be compatible with the external operating voltage according to the detection result, wherein the external operating voltage is a lower first voltage or a higher second voltage, and the first lower voltage is equal to an internal device operating voltage of the SoC.

A standby power supply device includes at least one port, at least one current detection unit, a power supply unit, and a control unit. Each port is configured to connect to an external powered device. A current detection unit is connected to one port. Each current detection unit detects the current of the port. When the current of one port exceeds a first predetermined value, the current detection unit outputs a first detection signal. The power supply unit supplies standby power to an external powered device. The control unit controls the power supply unit supply power to the external powered device when the control unit receives the detection signal from the corresponding current detection unit. When the control unit receives multiple first detection signals, the control unit controls the power supply unit to supply power to multiple external powered devices simultaneously.
