ポート制御回路６２は、バッファ７２の出力及び操作キー７２のキー操作を読み取り、その読取り結果又はＣＰＵ５０からの指示に従い、プルアップ抵抗７８への電圧印加を制御する。プルアップ抵抗７８への印加電圧を３．３Ｖにすることで、Ｄ＋線に対してプルアップし、印加電圧を０ＶまたはＨｉＺにすることで、Ｄ＋線に対してプルダウンまたは開放にすることができる。これにより、周辺機器４０が通信の準備が整っている状態にあるときにプルアップ抵抗７８をプルアップしておくことで、ホストＰＣ１０にＵ周辺機器４０がＵＳＢケーブル３０で接続されていると認識させることができる。逆に、通信の準備が整っていない場合には、プルアップ抵抗７８をプルダウンまたは開放にすることで、ホストＰＣ１０に周辺機器４０が接続されていないと認識させることができ、ホストＰＣ１０は、周辺機器４０に対するアドレス設定などの通信を開始しない。周辺機器４０で通信の準備が出来た時点で、プルアップ抵抗７８をプルアップすれば、ホストＰＣ１０は、周辺機器４０が接続されたと認識する。 The port control circuit 62 reads the output of the buffer 72 and the key operation of the operation key 72, and controls the voltage application to the pull-up resistor 78 according to the read result or the instruction from the CPU 50. By the voltage applied to the pull-up resistor 78 to the 3.3V, then pulled up against the D + line, the applied voltage by the 0V or HiZ, can be pulled down or open to the D + line .. As a result, by pulling up the pull-up resistor 78 when the peripheral device 40 is ready for communication, it is recognized that the U peripheral device 40 is connected to the host PC 10 by the USB cable 30. Can be made to. On the contrary, when the communication is not ready, the pull-up resistor 78 can be pulled down or opened so that the host PC 10 can recognize that the peripheral device 40 is not connected, and the host PC 10 can recognize that the peripheral device 40 is not connected. Does not start communication such as address setting for the device 40. If the pull-up resistor 78 is pulled up when the peripheral device 40 is ready for communication, the host PC 10 recognizes that the peripheral device 40 is connected.
周辺機器４０がホストＰＣ１０に接続されている場合（Ｓ１）、節電モードに入ることを通知するメッセージをホストＰＣ１０に向け発行し（Ｓ３）、そのメッセージがＵＳＢバス上に送信されるのを待って（Ｓ４）、Ｄ＋線のプルダウンを行い（Ｓ５）、周辺機器４０の電源をシャットダウンする（Ｓ２）。 When the peripheral device 40 is connected to the host PC 10 (S1), a message notifying the host PC 10 to enter the power saving mode is issued to the host PC 10 (S3), and the message is waited to be transmitted on the USB bus. (S4), performs a pull-down on the D + line (S5), to shut down the power supply of the peripheral device 40 (S2).
