  3. Sleep mode - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sleep_mode

    Sleep mode (or suspend to RAM) is a low power mode for electronic devices such as computers, televisions, and remote controlled devices. These modes save significantly on electrical consumption compared to leaving a device fully on and, upon resume, allow the user to avoid having to reissue instructions or to wait for a machine to boot .

  4. Standby power - Wikipedia

    On the other hand, a system in sleep mode still consumes power to keep the data in the RAM, and thus cannot last indefinitely, as hibernation can. Detaching power from a system in sleep mode results in data loss, while cutting the power of a system in hibernation has no risk; the hibernated system can resume when and if the power is restored.

    The actual suspend is done by: echo shutdown > /sys/power/disk; echo disk > /sys/power/state. You may check other suspend options available by doing cat /sys/power/state. depending on your kernel config, it will show something similar to [standby] mem disk. and options available under disk can be viewed by cat /sys/power/disk

  8. ACPI - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ACPI

    Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) is an open standard that operating systems can use to discover and configure computer hardware components, to perform power management (e.g. putting unused hardware components to sleep), auto configuration (e.g. Plug and Play and hot swapping), and status monitoring.
