LightKeeper Automotive Lighting Control Module On GlobalSpec

From Microchip Technology, Inc.

This Application Note describes an automotive exterior lighting control module using a PIC16C433. This unit also communicates over a Local Interconnect Network (LIN) bus as a slave controller. The non-networked functions are similar to General Motors? Twilight Sentinel ® . Networked functions allow lighting control to be taken over by the integrated body computer, a remote keyless entry unit, or a security system.
