Buttons
The Intel-powered classmate PC features a spill-resistance function on keyboard, power button and
touch pad buttons to ensure greater protection against spills in the classroom or anywhere.
These are the ways to avoid damage to your system:
Save all important documents within 3-minutes.

Power off the system in normal procedure (Click Start Shut down), unplug the AC adapter then
remove the battery.

Tilt the system to the leftmost or rightmost position and gently wipe the liquid on the keyboard
(Remember not to press the keyboard).

Power On the system after letting it dry up for four hours.

These procedures only apply for water resistance keyboard, power button and touchpad buttons.

Please take note that it can cause a severe damage to the system if
the user uses the abnormal procedure (pressing the Ctrl-Alt-Del key combination) and forcibly
shut down the system.

2. Software Specifications
2.1. Preface
The software engineering specification is a deployment from product marketing specification. It should outline
major tasks to be implemented in a specific model. For any model which has been defined from product marketing
division, there should have a product marketing specification comes out.
The purpose of this specification is to be an implementation guideline for engineers who are responsible for the
model. It intends to avoid ambiguity about function definitions so as to allow engineers to shorten their implementation
period.
The specification covers all the bundled software components which including BIOS, Micro-Controller, device
drivers and applications. The target Operating Systems will be Windows Vista. The device drivers and applications are
options based on per-customers requirements. The engineers should make sure that these drivers and application could
run without any difficulties on the target PC2001 model.
The readers of this specification are assumed to have enough experiences and knowledge to understand whatever
in the context. The specification will not intend to explain any detail of specific topic.

2.2. System Overview

2.2.1 System Memory
The System consists of DDR3 SDRAM memory. The BIOS will automatically detect the amount of memory
during the POST. But the total RAM size can not be used by user. (Must substrate by the size of the video shared
memory)

2.2.2 SATA
Which transfer mode will be set depend on the used devices, core chip SATA interface and BIOS supported. This
models BIOS support all the data transfer modes above, and it will auto detect and initialize it during POST.

2.2.3 Audio
The audio controller is integrated in ICH-M and through the HDA data line to external CODEC
(ALC269-VB6) to reduce the noise caused by PCBs layout. However the H/W architecture is, the BIOS will recognize
it as a PCI device and initialize it in PCI bus initialization.

2.2.4 LAN
Realtek RTL8105

2.2.5 CARD READER

Windows XP compliance.

2.2.6 PCI Device

All the PCI devices will occupy the system resources, such as I/O, Memory and IRQ, especially the IRQ
assignment is relative to H/W and system arrangement. The following will list all PCI devices:

2.3. Power Management

2.3.1 General Requirement

The purpose of the Power Management (PM) is that trying to reduce the power consumption in the system then
extent the battery life, increase the time to use without recharging the battery. The Advanced Configuration and Power
Interface (ACPI) specification is the latest and better PM method and will replace the traditional APM and PNP
functions. ACPI is a kind of Operating System Directed Power Management (OSPM), that is, the OS will control the
system/devices to enter proper power-saving mode and determine when to do it.
The BIOS should provide the ACPI table that is written by ASL language, to tell the OS how to setup and control
the system/devices the configuration and the power-saving mode. So the system H/W, BIOS and drivers must be meet
the ACPI specification:

ACPI compliant
Supporting processor power state C0, C1 and C2
Supporting system state S0, S3, S4 and S5
First of all, the next section will depict the power management state transition, then describe the definition for
each system state.

2.3.3 Power Management Mode Definitions

Each system (or model) may have different PM model and state definition. For clear, see the following table:

PM Mode Definitions
Full-On The CPU run in full speed and all the devices are power on. The system can respond to all
applications with maximum performance.

1. The system in the state S0.

2. The CPU in the state C0.
3. All the devices in the state D0.
Idle This mode is similar to Full-On except the CPU will change to C1 or C2 state depend on the OS, to
save CPU power consumption.

1. The system in the state S0.

Page 17 of 23
 Chapter 1 General System Description

2. The CPU in the state C1 or C2.

3. All the devices in the state D0.
Suspend The state is more power saving than above, the CPU will change to C3 state and most of power
consumption parts will enter to suspend or idle mode.

1. The system in the state S3.

2. The CPU in the state C3.
3. HDD, CDROM and LCD enter to suspend mode, otherwise in state D0.
SOFF/STD The state is the most power saving mode, all of the parts in the system will power off, except the
keyboard controller enter to idle mode continuously to control the battery charging and monitor
power button.
Note: Before enter to S4, the OS or BIOS will save all of data or registers in the parts.

1. The system in the state S5 or S4.

2.The CPU and all of devices power off.
