Abstract
A power control system and a power control method are provided. The power control system is adapted to a computer device. The computer device comprises an embedded controller and a power supply both coupled to each other. The power supply provides power to the embedded controller. The power control system comprises a device switch input terminal and a logic output terminal. The device switch input terminal receives a trigger signal from a component of the computer device to change a state of the computer system. The logic output terminal is coupled to the power supply and performs on-off control of the power supply to provide or stop power to the embedded controller when the switch input terminal receives the trigger signal.
