ls /sys/bus/acpi/devices/TPSACPI01:00/ grep -r tpsacpi01 /sys/firmware/acpi/tables/ TPSACPI01 is a platform-specific ACPI device , often: acpi tpsacpi01
| Likely role | Details | |-------------|---------| | | TPS might stand for "Trusted Platform System" – seen in some Intel reference boards. | | Platform Controller Hub (PCH) private device | Used for power sequencing, wake sources, or GPIO events not covered by standard ACPI. | | Embedded Controller (EC) interface | Some vendors (e.g., Kontron, Advantech) use custom HIDs for EC control. | | Intel SoC power management | On Bay Trail, Cherry Trail, Apollo Lake – TPSACPI01 can be a wrapper for PMIC (Power Management IC) controls. | Actual meaning depends on the BIOS/EFI vendor
