  design features Protect Mobile Devices from Hot Plug Transients (to 85V)
  and from Users Who Use the Wrong Power Adapter
  Kevin Wong Battery powered mobile gadgets like smart phones,
  tablets and digital cameras have become integral parts
  of the modern lifestyle. More and more functionality
  is squeezed into increasingly small form factors in the
  endless quest for more mobility. The proliferation of mobile
  devices has spawned a corresponding number of power
  adapters to charge batteries and power the devices: from
  AC wall outlets, car battery adapters, USB ports and
  even mobile solar panels. Although many adapters use
  similar plugs, their electrical specifications can be very
  different. Product designers are thus forced to employ
  protection circuitry to protect the low voltage rated
  electronics from transient and steady state overvoltages.
  Failures or faults in the power adapters
  can cause an overvoltage event. So can
  hot-plugging an adapter into the power
  input of the mobile device (see Linear
  Technology Application Note 88). With the
  prevalence of universal connectors, a user
  can also unknowingly plug in the wrong
  adapter, damaging the device with a high …
