Abstract

 

The eSynC family of products (formally known as L) permits the charging of select 
Samsung mobile devices while simultaneously interacting with USB 2.0 accessories. 
 
The eSynC products share the core set of features present in all nSynC products, as well as 
providing “extended” features such as battery modulation, screen brightness management, and 
improved network operation. All devices supported use the USB-C interface.
