Abstract: An electronic system capable of detecting a number of hot-plug insertion/extraction cycles including a host device, at least one peripheral device, and at least one storage device is provided. The host device includes a controller and at least one connection socket. The controller has at least one detection pin. Each connection socket is coupled to a corresponding detection pin. The peripheral device includes at least one connector. The connector is hot-pluggably and electrically connected to the connection socket of the host device. The storage device stores the number of hot-plug insertion/extraction cycles of the connector in the peripheral device. When the connector of the peripheral device is connected to the connection socket of the host device, the controller reads the number of hot-plug insertion/extraction cycles from the storage device and increases the number of hot-plug insertion/extraction cycles of the connector in the peripheral device.

Abstract: An electronic system, a host device and a control method are provided. The electronic system includes a host device, a cable and a slave device. The slave device receives supply power for operation. The cable is coupled between the host device and the slave device. The host device includes a data transmission interface circuit, a management circuit and a central processing unit. The data transmission interface circuit includes a reset circuit. The reset circuit is utilized for detecting whether the slave device has powered on and accordingly generating a simulated hot plug signal. The management circuit is utilized for determining a hot plug state between the host device and the slave device according to the simulated hot plug signal and accordingly generating a control signal. The central processing unit is utilized for establishing a link between the host device and the slave device according to the control signal.
