Patent Images
1. A method for recognizing an overcurrent event in a universal serial bus, the method comprising the steps of:
- (A) monitoring communication between a first layer and a second layer of software layers of the universal bus;
(B) generating a data structure configured to store the communication between the first layer and the second layer; and
(C) parsing the data structure, the parsing locating a data transition in the data structure indicating the overcurrent event.
