• The PME_Status bit is set when the FDC37B78x would normally assert the PCI nPME signal,
independent of the state of the PME_En bit. Only active transitions on the PME Wake sources
can set the PME_Status bit.
• The PME_Status bit is read/write-clear. Writing a “1” to the PME_Status bit will clear it (if there
are no pending PME events) and cause the FDC37C78X to stop asserting the nPME, if enabled.
See Figure 5.
• Writing a “0” has no effect on the PME_Status bit.
• The PME_Status bit is reset to “0” during VBAT Power-On-Reset.

• Setting the PME_En bit to “1” enables the FDC37B78x to assert the nPME signal.
• When the PME_En bit is reset to “0”, nPME signal assertion is disabled.
• The PME_En bit is reset to “0” during VBAT Power-On-Reset.

• The PME Status registers indicate the state of the individual FDC37B78x PME wake sources,
independent of the state of the individual source enables or the PME_En bit.
• If the wake source has asserted a wake event, the associated PME Status bit will be “1”. The
wake source bits in the PME Status registers are read/write-clear: an active (“1”) PME Status bit
can only be cleared by writing a “1” to the bit. Writing a “0” to bits in the PME Wake Status
register has no effect.
