11-1. Status Changes
1: At first host executes reset sequence after power is supplied. If a disc is attached and a tray is
closed, the drive status becomes ACTIVE Mode. And next If host doesn't execute command
for certain time(default 30 sec) a disc stops, and changes STANDBY Mode .In the case of
receiving ATAPI command(Standby Immediate),the drive status changes STANDBY Mode soon.
2: In the case of STANDBY Mode at the status that a disc is attached and a tray is closed,
if the drive receives command from host, the drive status changes ACTIVE Mode soon.
3: In the case of ACTIVE Mode, a disc is stopped and a tray is opened by ATAPI eject command
or pushing eject button at front bezel. And next the drive status change STANDBY Mode again.

4: In the case of STANDBY Mode, a disc is stopped and a tray is opened by ATAPI eject command
or pushing eject button at front bezel. And next the drive status change STANDBY Mode again.
5: In the case of STANDBY Mode at the status that a tray is opened, this drive executes reset
sequence by closing a tray. And next If a disc is attached, the drive spin a disc and changes
ACTIVE Mode.
6: In the case of ACTIVE or STANDBY mode, this drive goes into Sleep mode immediately after
receiving of Sleep Command.
The only way to recover from SLEEP mode is with a software reset or hardware reset.
7: The drive status can recover by hard or soft reset(in the case of SSP disable).
And next the drive status becomes the same sequence with reset status.
8: In the case of SSP enable, the drive goes into STANBY mode immediatelly after receiving of
soft reset.
At first a disc is attached and a tray is closed after power is supplied. And next the drive checks
itself. If this check finished perfectly, the drive spin a disc and read TOC.
ACTIVE Mode stands for this status that the drive finish reading TOC.
So laser, spindle motor, and sled motor active.
This mode is a low current consumption mode.
STANDBY Mode stands for this status that only SATA interface active. So laser, spindle
motor, and sled motor doesn't active.
This mode is a low current consumption mode.
SLEEP Mode stands for this status that all system(laser, spindle motor, sled motor, SATA interface)
doesn't active. The drive can recover by hard/soft reset.

Serial ATA interface power states are controlled by the device and host controller.
The interface power states are defined as below.
The Phy logic and main PLL are both on and active. The interface is synchronized and
capable of receiving and sending data.
The Phy logic of SATA interface is powered, but is in a reduced power state.
Power dissipation in this mode is less than the PHYRDY mode, but more than the SLUMBER mode.
The exit latency from this state shall be no longer than 10 us.

12-3.HIPM( Host Initiated link Power Management )
HIPM is a method which controls Serial ATA interface power states by host controller.
Logical Unit supports this feature. Host shall issue IDENTIFY PACKET DEVICE before
initiate power management transition requests, and check the response data whether
HIPM is supported or not.
12-4. HIPM State Changes
1: A power-on or hard reset always returns the Interface Power State to the PHYRDY state from any state.
2: In the case of required Partial, the drive receive PMREQ_P from host.
3: In the case of required Slumber, the drive receive PMREQ_S from host.
4: If the drive issues PMNAK, the status changes into PHYRDY.
5: If the drive issues PMACK, the status changes into PARTIAL.
6: If the drive issues PMACK, the status changes into SLUMBER.
7: If the drive or host issues COMWAKE(or COMRESET/COMINIT), the status changes into PHYRDY.

DIPM is a method which controls Serial ATA interface power states by the Logical Unit.
The Logical Unit has internal timers, Partial Timer and Slumber Timer , and the timer provide for the
Logical Unit to change Interface Power State without direct HOST request. The disabled/enabled of
DIPM can be switched by using SET FEATURE command.
12-6. DIPM State Changes
1: A power-on or hard reset always returns the Interface Power State to the PHYRDY state from any state.
2: If the drive received command, the drive keep PHYRDY state and resets the Partial/Slumber Timer.
3: If the drive is set DIPM Enable and the Partial timer reaches zero, the drive issues PMREQ_P.
4: If the drive is set DIPM Enable and the Slumber timer reaches zero, the drive issues PMREQ_S.
5: If the drive received PMNAK from Host, the status changes into PHYRDY.
6: If the drive received PMACK from Host, the status changes into PARTIAL.
7: If the drive received PMACK from Host, the status changes into SLUMBER.
8: If the drive or host issues COMWAKE(or COMRESET/COMINIT), the status changes into PHYRDY.
If the drive changes Interface Power State from PARTIAL to SLUMBER, the drive issues COMWAKE
to enter PHYRDY state. And then, the drive requests to change the state into SLUMBER

12. Serial ATA Features (continue)
12-7. AN ( Asynchronous Notification )
Asynchronous notification is a mechanism for a device to send a notification to the host that the device
requires attention. A few examples of how this mechanism could be used include indicating media has
been inserted in an device.
12-8. SSP ( Software Setting Preservation )
When a device is enumerated, software configures the device using SET FEATURES and other commands.
These software settings are often preserved across software reset but not necessarily across COMRESET.
In Parallel ATA, only commanded hardware resets may occur, thus legacy mode software only reprograms
settings that are cleared for the particular type of reset it has issued. In Serial ATA, COMRESET is
equivalent to hardware reset and a noncommanded COMRESET may occur if there is an asynchronous
loss of signal. Since COMRESET is equivalent to hardware reset, in the case of an asynchronous loss of
signal some software settings may be lost without legacy mode software knowledge. In order to avoid losing
important software settings without legacy mode driver knowledge, the software settings preservation ensures
that the value of important software settings is maintained across a COMRESET. Software settings
preservation may be enabled or disabled using SET FEATURES with a subcommand code of 06h .
The feature is enabled by default.
The software settings that is preserved across COMRESET are listed below.
SET FEATURES (Set Transfer Mode): PIO, Multiword, and UDMA transfer mode settings established by the
SET FEATURES command with subcommand code of 03h.
12-9. SSC ( Spread Spectrum Clocking )
The technique of modulating the operating frequency of a signal slightly to spread its radiated emissions over
a range of frequencies. This reduction in the maximum emission for a given frequency helps meet radiated
emission requirements.
