Product Description 1.11.1.1 System States and Power States Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions. The operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and knowledge of how devices are being used by applications. Devices that are not being used can be turned off. The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the system as a whole into a low-power state.

1.11.1.1
System States and Power States
Under ACPI, the operating system directs all system and device power state transitions.
The
operating system puts devices in and out of low-power states based on user preferences and
knowledge of how devices are being used by applications.
Devices that are not being used can be
turned off.
The operating system uses information from applications and user settings to put the
system as a whole into a low-power state.
Table 6 lists the power states supported by the board along with the associated system power
targets.
See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the various system and power
states.

One-Watt Standby
In 2001, the U.S. government issued an executive order requiring a reduction in power for
appliances and personal computers.
This board meets that requirement by operating at 1 W (or
less) in S5 (Standby) mode.
One-Watt operation applies only to the S5 state when the computer is
turned off, but still connected to AC power.
One-Watt operation does not apply to the S3 (Suspend
to RAM) or S4 (Suspend to disk) states.
Newer energy-efficient power supplies using less than 0.5 W (in Standby mode) may also be
needed to achieve this goal.
