So there is a feature in MacOS that allows your mac to wakeup/startup at a specific time in the morning. Example: Shutdown at 12 AM and startup at 6 AM Does anyone how this feature works under the hood?

It’s probable the SMC or a clock chip has its own internal timing mechanism, similar to the BIOS clock. Just as Windows uses wake-up timers, macOS likely has a comparable system.
