Patent ID: 10038290

Abstract:
Various examples of a connector device for connecting an electronic device with an external electronic device are described. An electronic device may comprise a first universal serial bus (USB)-type first plug including a first terminal, a second terminal, a third terminal, a fourth terminal, and a fifth terminal, a second USB-type second receptacle including a sixth terminal, a seventh terminal, an eighth terminal, a ninth terminal, and a tenth terminal, a first conducting line electrically connecting the first terminal and the sixth terminal, a second conducting line electrically connecting the second terminal and the sixth terminal, a third conducting line electrically connecting the third terminal and the eighth terminal, a fourth conducting line electrically connecting the fourth terminal and the ninth terminal, a fifth conducting line electrically connecting the fifth terminal and the tenth terminal, a first resistor connected to the second conducting line, and a second resistor connected between the second terminal and the seventh terminal to enable a first electronic device connected to the first plug to recognize a second electronic device connected to the second receptacle.
