Manage system resets from various commands.Tell the computer to turn on, turn off, sleep, wake, idle, etc.It has memory, software, firmware, I/O, two crystals, and a CPU. The PMU (Power Management Unit) is a microcontroller chip that controls all power functions for the computer. Refer to "Processor Module" in the Take Apart chapter for more information. Processor modules can be ordered from Service. The processor should rarely fail and should be replaced only as a last resort.

The logic board comes with a removable processor module.

If a problem is detected during the test, you will not hear a normal startup chime. This test automatically runs whenever the computer is powered on after being fully shut down ( the power-on self test does not run if the machine is only restarted). There is a power-on self test that resides in the ROM of the Power Mac G4.
