SLEEP (ATA Command E6)

This command provides the only way for the device to enter Sleep mode.

It causes the device to set the BSY bit to one, prepare to enter Sleep mode, clear the
BSY bit to 0 and assert INTRQ. The Host shall read the Status register in order to
clear the interrupt and allow the device to enter Sleep mode. In Sleep mode, the
interface becomes inactive without affecting the operation of the interface. The Host
shall not attempt to access the Command Block registers while the device is in Sleep
mode.

Because some Host systems may not read the Status register and clear the
interrupt, a device may automatically de-assert INTRQ and enter Sleep mode after a
vendor specific time period of not less that 2 seconds. The only way to recover from
Sleep mode is with a SOFTWARE RESET (SRST), a HARDWARE RESET, or a
DEVICE RESET command.

A device shall not power on in Sleep mode nor remain in Sleep mode following a
reset sequence.
