1.5 Power Management Features
1.5.1. Overview
The PIIX4 power management function provides a wide range of
capabilities and configuration options allowing a system designer to implement a
wide range of power saving modes.
PIIX4 provides for four main areas of power management:
-Clock Control and Processor Complex Management
-Peripheral Device Management
-System Management (SMI Generation, System Management Bus)
-System Suspend and Resume
Brief descriptions of primary power management function follow.
Clock Control: When the operating system, application program, or system software
is not performing useful work, the processor complex (Processor, Host Bridge, DRAM,
L2 cache) does not need to be executing cycles and, therefore, can be placed in Standby
mode.
Peripheral Device Management: Peripheral device resources are monitored to
detect when a specific device is idle. PIIX4 then informs system power management
software, which can place that individual device into a power managed condition (such
as Local Standby or Powered Off). Accesses targeting that device are then monitored.
System Suspend: Once the power management software has determined that the
system is fully idle or that a critical system event has occurred, it can place the system
into a suspend state, which allows for increased power savings. The software
configured PIIX4 for the typesof suspend, types of resume or wake-up events, and the
PIIX4 automatically transitions the system into suspend. When an enabled resume
event is detected, PIIX4 automatically restores the system operation.
-Three suspend states

-Power-on-Suspend (POS) with three system reset options
-Suspend-to-RAM (STR)
-Suspend-to-Disk (STD) or Soft OFF (SOff)
-Global Standby Timer (also active during suspend) to monitor for overall system
idleness and as a resume timer
-Power Button Input
-Override feature forcing immediate transition to Soft Off
-Battery Low indication pin
-Shadow registers for standard AT write only registers to save and restore system
state information
-“Resume Well”to monitor wake-up events during suspend
-Resume power and reset sequencing

1.6 Power Requirements
Your system requires a clean, steady power source for reliable performance
of the high frequency CPU on the PC-686(CPCI) Industrial CPU board, the quality
of the power supply is even more important. For the best performance make sure
your power supply provides a range of the following table DC power source.
1.6.1. Power Consumption
For typical configurations, the CPU board is designed to operate with at
least a 200W power supply. A higher-wattage power supply should be used for
heavily-loaded configurations. The power supply must meet the following
requirements:
ŸRise time for power supply: 2ms to 20ms
ŸMinimum delay for reset to Power Good: 100ms
ŸMinimum Powerdown warning: 1ms
Ÿ3.3V output must reach its minimum regulation level within 20ms of the +5V
output reaching its minimum regulation level
The following table lists the power supply’s tolerances for DC voltages:
DC Voltage Acceptable Tolerance
+3.3 V ± 4%
+5 V ±5%
+12 V ±5%
