System and method for enabling power sharing in a multiport power sourcing device

A system to enable power sharing in a multi-port power sourcing device, said system comprising:

• the multi-port power sourcing device, wherein the multiport power sourcing device comprises a plurality of ports and a plurality of pre-defined resistances configured to each port of the plurality of ports,
• wherein the multiport power sourcing device comprises a processor that executes a set of executable instructions that are stored in a memory, which upon execution, the processor causes the multiport power sourcing device to:
• receive a first set of instructions, one or more input parameters, wherein the one or more input parameters pertain to the plurality of ports associated with the multiport power sourcing device, total power capacity of the multi-port power sourcing device, and maximum power limit of each port of the plurality of ports;
• determine by a second set of instructions, a second set of parameters pertaining to the pre-defined resistances configured at the each port of the plurality of ports;
• execute the first set of instructions based on the one or more input parameters and the second set of parameters, the first set of instructions pertaining to any or a combination of power allocation, de-allocation, information exchange related to power across the plurality of ports;
• execute the second set of instructions based on the executed first set of instructions, the second set of instructions being executed to manage at least one operation pertaining to each port of the plurality of ports,
• wherein the executed first set of instructions facilitate implementation of the second set of instructions by communication via a request-response communication interface,
• wherein, based on the determined second set of parameters and said communication, the second set of instructions enable automated determination of any or a combination of a number of the plurality of ports and a status of the each port of the plurality of ports,
• wherein, when the multi-port power sourcing device is switched on, the first set of instructions executed on the multi-port power sourcing device activates each of the second set of instructions associated with each of the ports,
• wherein a master port is configured to maintain record of allocated power across the plurality of ports and inform each of the second set of instructions about power to be allocated, and
• wherein the second set of instructions are configured to enable delivery of power over its corresponding physical USB port based on a predefined protocol and the first set of instructions.
