Description of the Invention: [Technical Field] The present invention relates to a standby management method and related management apparatus and chipset thereof, and more particularly to an advanced configuration and power interface (Advanced Configuration and Power Interface) , ACPI) S1 or S3 state standby management method and its associated management device and chipset. [Prior Art] For the purpose of power saving, general computer systems, especially portable computers such as notebook computers, use the Advanced Configuration and Power Interface (ACPI) standard to manage them. power supply. ACPI defines five states, such as: SO, SI, S3, S4, and S5. The computer system generally works in a normal state (SO state), and when the computer system is idle for a period of time, it will enter a more power-saving standby state S1 to S5, where S3 saves power compared to S1, S4 saves power compared to S3, and so on. The basic input/output system (hereinafter referred to as BIOS) in the current computer system can notify the operating system (os) to enter the standby state. The user can select the S1 or S3 status as the standby state of the operating system (OS) through the BIOS settings. In other words, the BIOS can notify the OS to enter the S1 or S3 state. In the S3 state, most of the power supply to all devices will be turned off, while in the S1 state, the power supply of all devices will be activated. Therefore, when considering a low power supply, the user usually selects the standby state in which the S3 state is 〇s. Although the S3 state is more power efficient than the S1 state, the time it takes to return to the normal operating state is relatively long. Regardless of the S1 or S3 state, the display unit, such as the LCD screen, is closed by VICO9-O0O2IOO-TW/ 0608-A41996-TW/ Final 4 201040709. Conventionally, when the computer system is idle for a period of time, the computer system automatically enters a preset standby state to save power. However, when the system is in the standby state of s 1 or . S3, the display unit will be turned off. If it takes a long time to return to the normal state, if the user needs to watch the screen at this time, the recovery command must be manually performed, for example. Click the mouse to wait for the system to return to the normal state from the standby state, which will cause inconvenience to the user. SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In view of the above, the present invention provides a standby management module for use in a computer system. The computer system includes a basic input/output system (BIOS), a graphics module, and a display module operable in a working state and at least in a standby state. The module includes a timing unit and an interrupt generating unit. The timing unit is used to start a time period when it detects that the computer system is idle. The interrupt generation unit is configured to generate an interrupt request to the basic input/output system at the end of the timing period to request preparation for entry into a particular state. Wherein, when in a certain state, the computer system enters a standby state, one of the phase-locked loop circuits corresponding to the display module is turned on, the phase-locked loop circuit corresponding to the other unit is turned off, and the drawing module is a fixed area in a storage unit.

The computer system has at least one basic input/output system, a drawing module, a display module and a standby management module, and the computer system is operable in an operating state and at least in a standby state. The method includes detecting that the computer system is idle and starting a time period in the working state. Before entering a specific state, an interrupt request is generated to prepare for a specific VIC09-0002I0Q-TW/ 0608-A41996-TW/ Final 5 201040709 state. When entering a specific state, the computer system enters a phase-locked loop circuit corresponding to one of the corresponding modules, such as phase lock back, s heart, ~, and corresponding.

In the state of 7, 100 includes at least one basic input wheel output diagram = no, computer system Ο 绘图 drawing module 12. A standby management module m is used to determine the state of the current usage system, such as a working state (so 2, setting the computer system S3 state). The drawing module 120 is coupled to the display γ槿2, (8) or the drawing related operation and the control display module 14〇, and is displayed in the display module 14〇 (for example, a liquid crystal display), ,,,, The fixed operation area (for example, a buffer) of the current operation m module (10) on the group ho is not continuously stored. The order is changed, and the information of the operation screen stored in the undetermined area is obtained. The solid standby management module 130 is coupled to the m〇s 120' to execute the standby management method according to the present invention. 1 and the drawing module standby management module i30 includes at least a timing unit 131, a raw sheet το 132, a state setting unit 133, a stop interrupt production: a punch-off unit 135, and a -_ mode control unit. To detect whether the computer system is idle. When the debt is measured, the computer system 100 is idle, and a timer is started. In the two 31 cases, the timing unit m is a countdown timer, and the countdown timer = an initial value. This initial value can be determined in BI〇S 11(). , 虿T cookware, Dian number VIC09-0002I00-TW/ 0608-A41996-TW/ Final η 201040709 The timer will be counted from the initial value to ο, And only continue to count down to 0 when the computer system is idle. If the timer 1 detects any wake-up event or action in the computer system during the counting process, the timer will reset to the initial value and count again. Time out, such as counting down to When the computer system has been idle for a long time, the interrupt generation unit 132 generates an interrupt request to the BIOS 110 at the end of the timing period of the timing unit 131, for example, to count down to 以, to request preparation for entering a particular state. In an embodiment, the specific The state is related to the S1 state of the ACPI standard, wherein, when in a specific state: (1) the computer system enters a standby state (S1 state); (2) the drawing module 120 is in a snapshot (snapsh〇t) mode; In addition to the phase lock loop (hereinafter referred to as PLL) associated with the display module 14〇, the other system PLLs will be turned off; (4) the remaining peripheral devices in the computer system will enter their corresponding The low power consumption mode, that is, the most power saving mode. When the drawing module 120 is in the snapshot mode, the stored operation surface is obtained from the fixed area in the storage unit and continuously displayed on the display module 14〇. That is, the stored operation screen will always be displayed on the display module 140. In an embodiment, in the specific state, the computer system 1 enters the standby state S1 and The last stored operation last frame is displayed by the display module 140. The state setting unit 133 is connected to the timing unit 131 and the drawing module 120 for providing a state setting value corresponding to a specific state, in the interrupt generating unit. After generating an interrupt request, the state setting unit 133 asserts the state set value so that BI〇s is ready to process the interrupt request to enter the specific state. The BIOS 110 judges whether or not according to the state set value recorded in the state setting unit 133. Enter a specific state. The status setting value is V1C09-0002I00-TW/ 0608-A41996-TW/ Final 8 201040709 No Enter a reference value for a specific status. For example, if the state set value is equal to the first set value (e.g., equal to 1), it indicates that a particular state is to be entered. If the state set value is not equal to the first set value (for example, equal to 〇), it means that it does not enter the specific state. The drawing module 丨20 will refer to the state setting value to determine whether to set the snapshot mode and whether to turn off the PLL associated with the display module 140. If the status setting is 1, the graphics module 120 will be set to the snapshot mode and the PLL associated with the display module 14A will remain enabled. In other words, in a specific state, except for the display module 14 〇 related pLL protection, the other PLLs will be turned off. The edge map mode control unit 136 can be used to perform related operations of setting the drawing module i 2 在 in the snapshot mode. The block entry unit 134 has a register for the money entry to block the entry flag, for example, its initial value is 〇,; ^ a pre-defined block entry event occurs, preventing the entry unit 134 from setting up blocking The entry flag (for example, the block entry flag is set to 〇 to prohibit) state. When BI〇sn() receives an interrupt request to enter a specific state, it will first block access based on the block entry unit 134. Flag, = whether to enter a specific state. When the entry flag is set, it indicates that the brain has entered the event. ' BI〇S 11G will ignore the interrupt request, restore the power = system -1 behavior _ if restored to When the SQ status # is blocked from entering the flag, the BIOS 11G will enter the standby state si according to the interruption of the entry into the specific state and display the last stored operation screen by using the display module 14〇. The wakeup judgment sheet 70135 is used for In a specific state, it is judged whether the received avoidance #2 (wakeupevent) is a predetermined wake-up event, in order to avoid the occurrence of a big shock.

FIG. 2 shows standby according to an embodiment of the present invention. Flowchart of the management method π simultaneously refers to the first diagram 'In the present embodiment, the false computer system L00 is a &amp; computer and the guard is in the working state (10) state), and the timing unit 131 is - countdown And it has an initial value. When the computer system 1GG is in a specific state τ: (1) the system enters the standby state (S1 state); (2) the drawing module 12 is in a snapshot mode; (7) in addition to and display in the computer system Module 〇 phase _ PLL remains open, other system PLL will be turned off, (4) the remaining peripheral devices in the computer system will enter its corresponding low-power saving mode, which is the most power-saving mode. First, as in step S210, the computer system is not used and is idle. In the standby management module 13G, the computer system idles the meter, and the unit 131 starts a time period. When the computer system continues to be set in the embodiment, the timer is counted down from the initial value to 〇, and in step S220 'If the s timer counts down to 〇' the end of the timing period (t▲ (four), indicating VIC09-0002IQ0.TW/ 0608 -A41996-TW/ Finai 201040709 I have been idle for a long time. So, the drawing module ❹ At this point, all I 2 G of the computer system will be triggered to enter the snapshot mode. The standby management module 13〇 is still using the drawn PLL circuit. Therefore, 120 is set in the snapshot mode. The slave control unit 136 resets the drawing module, and in the embodiment, the test is as follows (step 4), and the timer is set. When the time H is reset.

Handling the interrupt request for a particular state. Note that if any pre-existing stop-in event occurs, the block entry unit 134 sets - blocks the entry flag, in the embodiment, sets the block into the flag A 1 ' indicates that the entry is prohibited. Therefore, before the S 110 receives the interrupt request to enter the specific state, it will first decide whether to enter the specific state according to the block entry flag in the block entry block 134. If it is determined in step S26G, it is determined whether any blocking entry event occurs. If so, in step S270, the blocking entry unit 134 sets a blocking entry flag to indicate that the entry into the specific state is prohibited. Since the blocking entry flag system is set, it indicates that the blocking entry event occurs. BIOS ι10 will ignore the interrupt request and restore the working state of the computer system (S0 state), and the process ends. Therefore, the computer system is still in the working state (S0 state), and all the phase-locked loop circuits of the system are still open. * - Conversely 'If there is no blocking entry event (VIC09-0002I00-TW/ 0608-A41996-TW/ FinSl 11 201040 in step S26〇) 709 No), block 328 in access unit 134. _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Group: 40' system only keeps the display module 140 related ';, face).
