METHOD AND ELECTRONIC DEVICE FOR PROVIDING FAST CHARGING

According to an embodiment, an electronic device may include: a power management module; a USB connection terminal; a processor operably connected to the power management module and the USB connection terminal; and a memory operably connected to the processor. The memory may store instructions that, when executed, cause the processor to: provide, in response to connection with an external electronic device through the USB connection terminal, fast charging related information to the external electronic device; obtain power based on the fast charging related information from the external electronic device; perform a fast charging operation through the power management module based on the obtained power; determine to enter a first mode for data communication with the external electronic device; and determine whether fast charging is possible in the external electronic device based on the obtained power and an entry into the first mode by the electronic device and the external electronic device.
