RTC Alarm RTC_STS
Definition
The sleep button that has a status and an enable bit in the Runtime Regis-
ters to provide an SCI power management event on a button press. The
status bit is software Read/Writable by the EC; the enable bit is Read-only
by the EC.
The SLPBTN_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of an
SCI due to the sleep button event. The status bit is set by the EC when it
generates a sleep button event and is cleared by the Host writing a ‘1’ to
this bit (writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by the EC. If the
enable bit is set, the EC will generate an SCI power management event.
The ACPI specification requires that the RTC alarm generate a hardware
wake-up event from the sleeping state. The RTC alarm can be enabled as
an SCI event and its status can be determined through bits in the Runtime
Registers. The status bit is software Read/Writable by the EC; the enable
bit is Read-only by the EC.
The RTC_STS bit is set by the Host to enable the generation of an SCI
due to the RTC alarm event. The status bit is set by the EC when the RTC
generates an alarm event and is cleared by the Host writing a ‘1’ to this bit
(writing a ‘0’ has no effect); it can also be cleared by the EC. If the enable
bit is set, the EC will generate an SCI power management event.

15.11 Runtime Registers
The registers listed in the Runtime Register Summary table are for a single instance of the ACPI PM1 interface. The
addresses of each register listed in this table are defined as a relative offset to the host “Base Address” defined in the
Runtime Register Base Address Table.
