Advanced power management (APM) is a technical standard for power management developed by Intel and Microsoft and released in 1992 [1] which enables an operating system running an IBM-compatible personal computer to work with the BIOS (part of the computer's firmware) to achieve power management.
Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping), and status monitoring.
The High Precision Event Timer (HPET) is a hardware timer available in modern x86-compatible personal computers. Compared to older types of timers available in the x86 architecture, HPET allows more efficient processing of highly timing-sensitive applications, such as multimedia playback and OS task switching .
It is normally used on laptops and other mobile Internet devices to extend battery life. As serial-based PCI Express devices become less active, it is possible for the computer's power management system to take the opportunity to reduce overall power consumption by placing the link PHY into a low-power mode and instructing other devices on the ...
This can happen when AC power and battery are removed after entering ACPI S4. Applying AC power or battery back and resuming from S4 may result in non detected or even non functioning USB device (erratum 13) Reading the HPET comparator timer immediately after a write returns the old value (erratum 14) SATA 6 Gbit/s devices may not be detected ...

An A27 battery is cylindrical, 27.8 mm (1.09 in) long [1] [4] and 7.7 mm (0.30 in) in diameter, with a typical weight of 4.4 grams, and a typical capacity around 20 mAh. It has a nominal voltage of 12 V. It is similar to the A23 battery, with almost the same length and the same nominal voltage, but thinner and made of eight LR732 button cells. [5]
A battery management system (BMS) is any electronic system that manages a rechargeable battery (cell or battery pack) by facilitating the safe usage and a long life of the battery in practical scenarios while monitoring and estimating its various states (such as state of health and state of charge), [1] calculating secondary data, reporting that data, controlling its environment ...
