Abstract: In an embodiment, an USB interface includes a transformer, a primary winding of the transformer and a first switch connected in series between a first node and a second node, a secondary winding of the transformer and a component connected in series between a third node and a fourth node, the fourth node configured to be set a first reference potential, a second switch connected between the third node and a first terminal, the first terminal configured to provide an output voltage of the USB interface; wherein the component is configured to avoid a current circulation in the secondary winding when the first switch is closed and a control circuit configured to compare a first voltage of an interconnection node between the secondary winding and the component to a first threshold and compare the first voltage to a second threshold when the first voltage is, in absolute values, above the first threshold.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an USB PD-type interface including a first node receiving a first potential, a second node delivering a second potential, and a third node at a reference potential; a resistor connected between a fourth node coupled to the first node, and a fifth node; a MOS transistor connected between the fifth node and the second node; a bipolar transistor having a collector connected to a gate of the MOS transistor and an emitter connected to the fourth node or to the fifth node; and a circuit configured to deliver a control potential to a base of the bipolar transistor determined from a current in the first resistor.
