• AC adaptor current
• Battery and temperature
2. 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
3. Abnormal check
The EC determines whether the condition is abnormal, and if so, stores an error code into
the error register.
4. Input port management
The EC monitors the following input signal status:
• System power ON/OFF status
• Direct CD power ON/OFF status
5. Beep and LED control
