    The document discusses power management on mobile devices and laptops. It explains that CPUs have built-in power saving features to reduce power usage by shutting down parts of the computer. Technicians need to ensure power management settings are optimized for users. Key terms defined include AC adapter, ACPI sleep and hibernation modes, and power plans. A quick review reiterates that ACPI level 0 means power is on but nothing is used, level 3 is sleep mode with RAM powered and CPU off, and level 4 is hibernation where RAM data is stored and RAM/CPU are powered off.

    Episode Description

    Saving power is important, especially on


    mobile devices and laptops. Every CPU has
    a built-in feature to shut down different
    parts of a computer to reduce power needs.
    It’s up to the techs to make sure the power
    management settings are optimal for the
    users.

    Quick Review
    • ACPI level 0 means the power is on, but
    nothing is being used
    • ACPI level 3 is sleep mode; RAM is powered
    but the CPU is powered off
    • ACPI level 4 is hibernation; RAM data is
    copied to mass storage and RAM and CPU
    are powered off
    • All operating systems provide power
    management utilities
