### NAME

acpiec - ACPI Embedded Controller

### SYNOPSIS

acpiec* at acpi? acpiecdt* at acpi?

### DESCRIPTION

The acpiec driver supports ACPI Embedded Controllers.

It provides embedded controller access for other ACPI devices. On many systems which have an acpiec device, other ACPI devices such as acpiacad(4), acpibat(4), or acpitz(4) implicitly depend on the acpiec device. Therefore it is a good idea to enable acpiec with other ACPI devices unless you are sure the system does not have an acpiec device.

### SEE ALSO

acpi(4)

### HISTORY

The acpiec driver appeared in NetBSD1.6.
