Dear Sir / Madam [{0}],<br><br>
Greetings from FOSSEE Laptop team.<br><br>
Recently, it has been noticed that the users of some of the FOSSEE laptops are encountering USB power issues, which could lead to damage of the USB ports.<br><br>
On investigating this issue, we found that:<br><br>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 1)</div> <div style="width:95%;">The USB ports on these devices are capable of providing ONLY limited current (mainly designed to serve <b> mouse, keyboards, sdcard readers, pen-drives and other such low-power peripherals</b> ).<br><br></div></div>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 2)</div> <div style="width:95%">If the USB port(s) is damaged, it could also result in a non-functioning touchpad as it is internally connected to the USB hub.<br><br></div></div>
We have relayed these issues to the vendor for a possible fix. We will update you on the same once/if a patch is made available.<br><br>
Meanwhile, please follow the below instructions to prevent this issue from occurring:<br><br>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 1) </div> <div style="width:95%">Do not connect <b>high-power demanding devices</b> like <b> phones/power-banks/mp3-players </b> to the USB port. Do not connect phones for even data transfer.<br><br></div></div>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 2) </div> <div style="width:95%">Do not connect <b>USB powered hard-drives </b>(external powered USB data hard drives could be fine).<br><br></div></div>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 3) </div> <div style="width:95%">Use external power supply to <b>Arduino</b> or similar boards while interfacing higher loads (motors, GSM shields etc). <br><br></div></div>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 4) </div> <div style="width:95%">Do not connect <b>USB hubs</b> to chain-load peripherals. <br><br></div></div>
<div style="display:flex; margin-left:20px"><div style="width:5%"> 5) </div> <div style="width:95%">Any USB device which demands high power from the USB port should NOT be connected.</div></div><br>
