Power States And Targeted System Power - Intel D845GLLY Using Manual

Technical Product Specification for Intel Desktop Boards using the Intel 845GL Chipset
1.12.1.1 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 11 lists the power states supported by these Desktop Boards along with the associated
system power targets. See the ACPI specification for a complete description of the various system
and power states.
Table 11.

Power States and Targeted System Power

Global States Sleeping States
G0 – working S0 – working
state
G1 – sleeping S1 – Processor
state stopped
G1 – sleeping S3 – Suspend to
state RAM. Context
saved to RAM.
G1 – sleeping S4 – Suspend to
state disk. Context
saved to disk.
G2/S5 S5 – Soft off.
Context not saved.
Cold boot is
required.
G3 – No power to the
mechanical off system.
AC power is
disconnected
from the
computer.
Notes:
1. Total system power is dependent on the system configuration, including add-in boards and peripherals powered
by the system chassis' power supply.
2. Dependent on the standby power consumption of wake-up devices used in the system.
