Boot Block
The Flash ROM used in many systems today offer the customer the advantage of electronically reprogramming the BIOS without physically replacing the BIOS ROM. This advantage, however, does create a possible hazard: power failures or fluctuations that occur during updating the Flash ROM can damage the BIOS code, making the system unbootable. To prevent this possible hazard, many Flash ROM include a special non-volatile region that can never be erased. This region, called the boot block, contains a fail-safe recovery routine. If the boot block finds corrupted BIOS, it prompts the end user to insert a diskette, from which it loads several files that replace the corrupted BIOS on the Flash ROM with an uncorrupted one.

2-4
The operating system detects when the system is idle and places the CPU in one of the 3 CPU low power states (C1, C2 or C3) depending on how much latency it believes the system can afford. The C1 state is simply the CPU halt instruction. The C2 state is the CPU stop grant state. The C3 state is the CPU stops clock state. The CPU stays in this state until an interrupt occurs. 4.4.2 Hard Disk The operating system uses the spin down timer of the hard drive to set time-outs. The BIOS time-out of the hard disk must be disabled in ACPI mode. The user can sets the hard disk spin down time-out in the control panel power applet. 4.4.3 Display Device The monitor can be turned off after a period of no activity based on the settings of the OS. 4.4.4 System Wake Up Sources The table below lists the wake up events for all low power states:
Events Any key Power button LAN (On board) *3 RTC*3 Critical low battery S3 O O O O O S4 X O O O X S5 X O X X X Process required X X O O X
Field Process Required identifies that further process for the occurred events must be processed during wake up or resume procedure.
4.5
Hibernation
To support the hibernate state, the save to disk partition or file will be created by the operating system if the user select to enable the hibernation. It is the responsibility of the operating system to save the system state to a disk file and restore the system state when it is turned back on.

INVERTER SPECIFICATION
This inverter is designed to light up the CCFL of LCD for notebook. It should be supported JFW01 14.1 LCD panels. There are two control signals that come from system to control lamp brightness. One signal is named DAC_BRIG, which limits current to meet LCD lamp current specification. Another one is named PWM, which adjusts lamp brightness. This inverter brightness is adjusted by PWM burst mode. The PWM burst
4-14
mode is that turning on and off the lamp at a rate of 150Hz. The effective brightness is a function of the duty cycle.
4.1 Features
4.1.1 Wide range 9V to 21V input voltage 4.1.2 Brightness adjustment by PWM burst mode. 4.1.3 Close loop controls lamp current.
4.2 Absolute maximum rating

Notes: *1 The inverter can work in 7.5V input voltae(continuous),but 7.5V electronic characteristic will not be care.(Note:the display must be normal and can not glitter or become dark) *2. Limited lamp maximum current by DAC_BRIG signal: When DAC_BRIG voltage is 0V and INV_PWM enables (100%), lamp has max. limited current. When DAC_BRIG voltage is 3.3V and INV_PWM enables (100%), lamp has min. limited current. When add 1V DAC, the 100% Lamp current will decrease 0.5mA. DAC_BRIG signal comes from system chipset with internal resistance of 3K. *3. Inverter operating frequency should be within specification (45~65kHz) at max. and min. brightness load. *4. INV_PWM enable implies INV_PWM signal is High level (On duty cycle is 100%). It is a square wave of 150Hz to adjust backlight brightness that is a function of PWM duty cycle. Backlight brightness is maximum value under INV_PWM at 100% and brightness is minimum under
4-16
INV_PWM at 30%. *5. The system interface signals belong to 3.3V. *6.Please make sure open lamp output voltage should be within starting voltage specification. *7. Inverter should pass human body safety test. *8. Inverter should no smoking by any component open/ short test *9. Transformer voltage stress should not be over 85% under any condition ( turn on overshoot transient and line transient). *10. Audio noise should be less than 36dB at 10 cm distance.

4.6 Safety Protection
4.6.1 Open lamp protection: When inverter is on open lamp status, any component on inverter should be O.K and inverter is no damaged, no fire and no arcing. If inverter cant shunt down during open lamp happen, inverter must pass below conditions: i.) Human body test. ii.) Open lamp burning: Inverter burns for 24 hours at open lamp status. No parts damage. 4.6.2 Human body safety test: Short inverter output, transformer secondary output to GND by a 2K resistor which connects one end to GND and another one to those outputs. They should meet output current limitation requirement as follow. Output current I is the current that flows through 2K resistor. 1.Output current I 0.7mA , if frequency f 1KHz 2.Output current I 0.7mA * f (kHz) , if f 1KHz.

The purpose of this chapter is to provide a systematic method of isolating problems you may have with the KSW91 series Notebook Computer. We assume that you have a basic understanding of DOS-based computer systems as well as knowledge of standard troubleshooting procedures. This manual is written under the assumption that the problems are indeed related with Notebook itself. The improper usage and application software problems are excluded in this chapter. The system BIOS Beep Code is an integrated unit to detect some errors in the system board. This beep code will give immediate identification of certain system board problems. If the troubleshooting procedure is followed step by step, it can efficiently isolate the problem and the problem can be solved easily.
