POWER ADAPTER AND MOBILE TERMINAL
First Claim
1. A power adapter, the power adapter being coupled to a mobile terminal via a Universal Serial Bus (USB) interface, a power line of the USB interface being used for the power adapter to charge the mobile terminal, a data line of the USB interface being used for a bidirectional communication between the power adapter and the mobile terminal, the power adapter supporting a normal charging mode and a quick charging mode, a charging current of the quick charging mode being greater than a charging current of the normal charging mode, the power adapter comprising:
- a communication circuit configured to communicate with the mobile terminal bidirectionally via the data line of the USB interface, so as to determine whether to charge the mobile terminal in the quick charging mode; and
a current adjusting circuit configured to adjust a charging current of the power adapter to be the charging current of the quick charging mode to charge the mobile terminal.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides a power adapter and a terminal. The power adapter is coupled to a mobile terminal via a USB interface, and a data line of the USB interface is used for a bidirectional communication between the power adapter and the mobile terminal. The power adapter supports a normal charging mode and a quick charging mode, and a charging current of the quick charging mode is greater than a charging current of the normal charging mode. The method includes: communicating, by the power adapter, with the mobile terminal via the data line of the USB interface, so as to determine to charge the mobile terminal in the quick charging mode; and adjusting, by the power adapter, a charging current of the power adapter to be the charging current of the quick charging mode to charge the mobile terminal.
