4 Specifications for 2 mm barrel interface
4.1 General
Clauses 4 to 8 specify the 2 mm barrel type electrical and mechanical charging interface
between devices and power-supply accessories, specifically chargers. Clause 7 defines the
charger-identification process of these devices.
The 2 mm barrel interface may have a wide output current range and the current may change
with other parameters, but shall stay within the charging current/voltage window specified in
5.6. The recommended minimum current is specified in 5.6.

– 8 – 62637-1 © IEC:2011
4.2 Temperature
All specifications apply at normal room temperature 18 °C to 25 °C, unless some other
temperature is specified.
4.3 Voltage
All specifications are valid under nominal operating voltage as defined by the manufacturer.
5 Electrical specification for 2 mm barrel type chargers
5.1 Charger output capacitance
The capacitance at the charger output causes charging current spikes when the charger's
load is changing. Low-capacitance values are recommended if possible. The maximum
charger output filter capacitor size shall be 1 000 µF with + 20 % tolerance if the charger
V is less than 7 V. For output voltages of 7,0 V to 9,3 V, the maximum capacitance
max-out
value decreases linearly so that for a 9,3 V charger, the maximum output capacitance shall be
700 µF with + 20 % tolerance. The maximum capacitance value is illustrated in Figure 2.

5.4 High-frequency voltage components at the charger output
The purpose of this part of the specification is concerned with intra-system EMC, to guarantee
that the charger connected to the device via the interface does not cause interference with the
possible radio receiver reception in the device.
The charger shall not cause more high-frequency voltage components at the charger output
than specified in Table 3 and Figure 5 when connected to the artificial load specified in
Annex A and measured with the coupling-decoupling network specified in Annex B.

5.5 Feel current of AC chargers
The purpose of the feel current specification is not electrical safety but to guarantee a
minimum physical sensation felt by the user when connecting the devices to chargers using
the 2 mm barrel charger interface.
The maximum feel current from AC mains to the mobile device through the charger shall be
5 µA when measured as specified in IEC 62637-2.
5.6 Charging voltage/current window
The minimum charging current is 300 mA when the voltage is between 2,0 V and 4,65 V.
During charging, the current and voltage values at the interface shall not exceed the charging
window shown in Figure 6. This means that the charger shall operate inside the window and
the devices shall accept all chargers which operate inside the window. The maximum voltage
is 9,30 V and maximum current 950 mA. Below 1 V it is allowed that the current may raise to
1,2 A as shown in Figure 6. Below 2 V the minimum current is 100 mA, reducing to 0 mA
when the voltage drops to 0 V.
The only case when the charging voltage is allowed to exceed the charging current/voltage
window is in a load change situation (see 5.2).

5.7 Current linearity for chargers
The current linearity requirement is specified in a way that the allowed current change is
given for narrow voltage range from the middle of the total voltage range, but is sufficient to
guarantee adequate linearity also for output voltages below or above the specified range. The
maximum current fluctuation shall be 30 % of the current at 3,5 V when the charger output
voltage varies from 3,5 V to 4,6 V (for example 500 mA − 0,3 × 500 mA = 350 mA) when input
voltage and ambient temperature stay constant. An example of the current linearity
specification is shown in Figure 7.

6 Accessories connected between the 2 mm barrel charger and the mobile
device
6.1 Accessory interfaces
An accessory (for example a desk stand) connected between the charger and the device
shares energy with that device while taking energy for its own needs. The sharing policy
varies based on the type of accessory and the operating conditions. The accessory shall
provide an interface to the device that meets this 2 mm barrel interface specification, but a
current allowance of 100 mA is given for the accessory, lowering the recommended minimum
current to the device from 300 mA to 200 mA. The interface is indicated with dashed lines in
Figure 8.

6.2 Electrical specifications for accessories
Accessories connected between the charger and the mobile device and having direct contact
with charging lines (for example a desk stand), shall not disturb the charging or charger
identification. Minimum, maximum and typical values for accessory contacts are given in
Table 4.

The accessory does not need to fulfill the current linearity specification.
6.3 Booting up the mobile device when connected to an accessory
While the device is booting up, the accessory connected between the charger and the device
shall not limit the charging current between the two. Also, it shall be possible to boot up the
device when there is an accessory connected between the charger and the device and the
battery of the device is fully discharged.
For example an accessory may have current consumption I = 10 mA as long as the
max
charging voltage V is below 3,5 V and when the device is booting up.

6.4 Charger identification
An accessory connected between the charger and the device shall not prevent the device
from identifying the charger type correctly. For example if the accessory is connected to the
charger and the device, which is powered on, is later connected to the accessory, the power
consumption of the accessory may result in the wrong charger identification. The accessory
shall limit its power consumption (or use some other method) so that there is a minimum
4,65 V charging voltage available in the charging interface for the mobile device during the
first 300 ms after the mobile device is connected to the accessory.

62637-1  IEC:2011 – 15 –
7 Charger identification method for the 2 mm barrel interface
When a charger is connected to the device, the device shall start the charger recognition
procedure by checking the charger voltage with 1 mA to 5 mA current. Identification is based
on measured average voltage and waveform: voltage from 4,65 V to 9,3 V is identified as a
2 mm barrel interface charger. The charger should fulfill the voltage window specified here
and shown in Figure 9 for the charger identification process.
