Advanced Power Management (Adaptive
Battery Life Extender 3) Feature
This feature provides power saving without performance degradation. The Adaptive Battery Life
Extender 3 (ABLE-3) technology intelligently manages transition among power modes within the
device by monitoring access patterns of the host.
This technology has three idle modes; Performance Idle mode, Active Idle mode, and Low Power Idle
mode.
This feature allows the host to select an advanced power management level. The advanced power
management level is a scale from the lowest power consumption setting of 01h to the maximum
performance level of FEh. Device performance may increase with increasing advanced power
management levels. Device power consumption may increase with increasing advanced power
management levels. The advanced power management levels contain discrete bands, described in the
section of Set Feature command in detail.
This feature set uses the following functions:
A SET FEATURES subcommand to enable Advanced Power Management
A SET FEATURES subcommand to disable Advanced Power Management
