Using an STM32F042K6 USB CDC, is it possible to request more than 500 mA USB power?

Hey there,

I'm using USB CDC, configured as VCP with an STM32F042K6, bus powered device. Now it seems pretty easy to change the default 100 mA to 500 mA according to here:

https://community.st.com/s/question/0D50X00009XkZ8wSAF/stm32-as-buspowered-usb-device-how-to-negotiate-more-power

but how about more than 500 mA? For example requesting/negotiating 900 mA as a USB 3.0 device? How do I 'make' the STM32 USB 3.0 compatible?

Thank you for your help.

    STM32 devices do not support USB 3.0. The maximum power you can officially request is 500mA.
