sleep mode. Related Terms. An energy-saving mode of operation in which all unnecessary components are shut down. Many battery-operated devices, such as notebook computers, support a sleep mode. When a notebook computer goes into sleep mode, it shuts down the display screen and disk drive.
Standby mode or suspend mode, now commonly termed as the sleep mode, is a power saving state in computers and other electronic devices. In computers, sleep mode is the pausing of the state of the machine and using a minimal power input to maintain the standby in the memory. This state is usually expressed using a pulsating LED. With the press of the power button, the operations can be resumed if the computer is in the sleep mode. For example if a user has three programs running and connected to the internet, upon putting the computer on standby, all the three programs and the internet connection are suspended in that state.
