In the former case, this would break using the USB-debug port with an unpowered hub. in the later diagrams I sent I treat it as same > situation as USB suspend there, "there is voltage but we can't take any > power" -- that boils down to falsely reporting ADAPTSNS to absent. > 100mA case is atypical anyway. > > 500mA is the question, can we allow to enable charge under these > circumstances when in the worst case we have an OTG peripheral plugged > in the other side An empty battery should be enough to exceed 500mA. The PMU doesn't enforce any current limit on the adapter->SYS path, so we get the maximum battery charge current, which would be 1A. > Maybe it turns out we should only enable adapter power usage at all > (above just powering the FTDI) when we have an actual adapter there and > we allow it 1A fast charge + powering the device + any OTG devices > hanging off it. If the on/off switch is somewhere between FTDI and PMU, that should work, yes. Then we'd get 1A into the battery, 500mA into OTG, leaving 500mA for the system.
