A serial channel emulator adapted to react and respond to an electronic device in such a way that the electronic device will allow a third party power adapter containing the serial channel emulator to power the electronic device is presented. The serial channel emulator utilizes a processing unit to emulate a serial channel in the third party power adapter by receiving data from the electronic device, making decisions based upon the data, and delivering an appropriate response to the electronic device in order to allow the third party power adapter to be used instead of a proprietary device. Once the electronic device has established communication with the power adapter and received the appropriate response, the electronic device would allow the third party power adapter to power and/or charge the electronic device based on responses from the serial channel emulator disposed in the third party power adapter.
