Furthermore, the Raspberry Pi 5's USB port will be current-limited to 600mA. At this time, we can plug our PD dongle adapter into the Raspberry Pi 5's power USB-C port '''to achieve 5V5A PD handshake''', and '''the Raspberry Pi 5 will support full-speed operation'''. At the same time, the Raspberry Pi 5's USB current limit will be relaxed '''from 600mA to 1.6A.'''

Note: If a lightning bolt icon appears in the status bar, it's a low voltage warning due to insufficient power supply voltage, not a PD handshake issue, and can be ignored. To remove the lightning bolt icon, you need to replace.
