Abstract:
A power supply apparatus is provided, that supplies a bus voltage V BUS  to a detachable device. A DC/DC converter generates a DC voltage V OUT  used as the bus voltage V BUS . A USB controller receives the DC voltage V OUT  as a power supply voltage, and detects whether or not the device is connected. The DC/DC converter generates the DC voltage V OUT  such that (i) when the device is detected, the DC voltage V OUT  has a specified voltage level, and such that (ii) when the device is not detected, the DC voltage V OUT  has a voltage level that is lower than the specified voltage level and that is higher than a minimum operating voltage level required to operate the USB controller.

Claim (Index 2):
The bus controller according to  claim 1 , wherein the power supply apparatus further comprises:\n a connector to which the device is detachably connected; and an output switch arranged between the output of the secondary-side rectifier circuit and the connector, and wherein the power supply terminal of the bus controller is connected between the output of the secondary-side rectifier circuit and the output switch.
