When a laptop computer is operated while recharging, the integrated circuitry which controls the charging makes use of a power supply unit's remaining electrical current capacity. This allows supplying the device's components with power during usage while maintaining an uncompromised constant charging speed.
This feature has also been implemented on some laptop docking stations allowing device charging even when no laptop is present. [89] On laptops, charging devices from the USB port when it is not being powered from AC drains the laptop battery; most laptops have a facility to stop charging if their own battery charge level gets too low.

USB-C, or USB Type-C, is a 24-pin, reversible connector (not a protocol) that supersedes previous USB connectors and can carry audio, video, and other data, to connect to monitors, external drives, hubs/docking stations, mobile phones, and many more peripheral devices.
IEEE P1823 was a proposed global standard for a universal power adapter for mobile devices (UPAMD) that require between 10 W and 240 W. E.g., Laptops, larger tablets and other mobile devices that can require much more power than the (non-Power Delivery) USB battery charging specification limit of 7.5 W at 5 V. [25]
Dock connector on a 2011's HP EliteBook laptop. A dock connector is an electrical connector used to attach a mobile device simultaneously to multiple external resources. Dock connectors typically carry a variety of signals and power, through a single connector, to simplify the process of docking the device.
