Abstract
The present disclosure provides a port controller and an electronic device. The port controller is compatible with a Universal Serial Bus (USB) Type-C standard and is used in a device operable as a sink device. The port circuit is communicable with an external main controller. A transceiver is communicable with a source device via a configuration channel (CC) pin of a receptacle. A control unit is capable of negotiating with the source device via the transceiver. A pin control circuit controls a state of the CC pin and monitors the state of the CC pin. A power supply circuit receives a bus voltage supplied from the source device and generates a power supply voltage of the main controller.
