A/D conversion
• The EC uses 10-bit sampling for A/D conversion to determine the following values:
– AC adaptor current
– Battery and temperature
AC adaptor and battery check
• The EC checks the following by A/D converted values:
– Battery installed
• The EC checks the following by GPIO values:
– AC adaptor connected
Abnormal check
• The EC determines whether the condition is abnormal, and if so, stores an error code
into the error register.
Input port management
• The EC monitors the following input signal status:
– System power ON/OFF status
– Direct CD power ON/OFF status
Beep and LED control
