Description
Sleep Mode: SLPMODE determines which sleep state
is entered. When SLPMODE is high, S3 will be chosen.
When SLPMODE is low, S4/S5 will be the selected
sleep mode.

Reset Warning: Asserting the RSTWARN signal tells
the Intel® SCH to enter a sleep state or begin to
power down. A system management controller might
do so after an external event, such as pressing of the
power button or occurrence of a thermal event.

Sleep Ready: The Intel® SCH will drive the
SLPRDY# signal low to indicate to the system
management controller that the Intel® SCH is awake
and able to placed into a sleep state. deassertion of
this signal indicates that a wake is being requested
from a system device.

Reset Ready: Assertion of the RSTRDY# signal
indicates to the system management controller that it
is ready to be placed into a low power state. During a
transition from S0 to S3/4/5 sleep states, the Intel®
SCH asserts RSTRDY# and CPURST# after detecting
assertion of the RSTWARN signal from the external
system management controller.

General Purpose Event: GPE# is asserted by an
external device (typically, the system management
controller) to log an event in the Intel® SCH ACPI
space and cause an SCI (if enabled).
