Abstract

An electronic device includes a power line communication circuit configured to perform power line communication with an external device, the power line communication circuit including: a power line switch provided between a regulator output node and a POGO output node; and a pull-up resistance provided between the POGO output node and a power supply voltage; and a processor configured to control the power line communication circuit, wherein the processor is further configured to: based on receiving a start signal instructing an initiation of high-speed communication, turn off the power line switch to block an electrical coupling between the regulator output node and the POGO output node, and perform the high-speed communication with the external device by connecting coupling the POGO output node to the power supply voltage through the pull-up resistance or connecting coupling the POGO output node to a ground voltage, based on according to output data.
