Abstract:
1. A dual serial bus(DSB) communication and power interface system for electronic components, capable of operating in a first serial protocol and a second serial protocol, comprising a physical cable between said components, wherein said physical cable contains at least six separate conductors and wherein said at least six separate conductors comprise: A first conductor, wherein said first conductor is a virtual bus (VBUS) conductor and transfers power from a first electronic component to a second electronic component and wherein the first conductor is adapted to transfer 5V of power when operating in the first serial protocol and transfer 3.3V of power when operating in the second serial protocol; A second conductor, wherein said second conductor is a data transmitting conductor and sends data from said first electronic component to said second electronic component; A third conductor, wherein said third conductor is a data receiving conductor and receives data to said first electronic component sent from said second electronic component; A third conductor, wherein said third conductor is a data receiving conductor and receives data to said first electronic component sent from said second electronic component; A fourth conductor, wherein said fourth conductor is a ground(GND) conductor and receives return power to said first electronic component transferred from said second electronic component; A fifth conductor, wherein said fifth conductor is an auxiliary voltage supply(AVS) conductor and is adapted to transfer higher amounts of power from said first electronic component to said second electronic component than is capable of being transferred by said first conductor while said first conductor is transferring power in accordance with the first or second serial protocol; and, A sixth conductor, wherein said sixth conductor is a spare conductor.
