An example of a specification is the correct operation of the hardware of a microprocessor. An SDC is the worst possible outcome of a fault, as it can have an arbitrary impact on the correctness of software running on the hardware. Therefore, testing alone is unlikely to be the definitive solution to address these new faults.

Ideally the CPU goes to sleep when Sleep(1) is called, in order to save power, so how does the operating system (OS) wake your thread if the CPU is sleeping? The answer is hardware interrupts.
