Power Power Scheme Always On Minimal Power Management Max Battery Processor Performance while on External Power Always runs at the highest performance state. Performance state is determined based on CPU demand. Performance state is determined based on CPU demand. Processor Performance while on Battery Power Always runs at the highest performance state. Performance state is determined based on CPU demand. Starts at lowest performance state, then uses linear performance reduction (stop-clock throttling) as the battery discharges. 2-18 Software Guide
