AUTOMOTIVE AMBIENT LIGHTING MODULE REFERENCE DESIGN

Overview

The Ambient Lighting Module Reference Design offers a compact solution to control a RGB (Red, Green, Blue) LED over a LIN network. A RGB LED module can be used for illumination, backlighting or indication in a vehicle.

This reference design uses a low end 8-bit microcontroller to implement:

  • RGB LED color mixing (16,383 colors) and intensity (1023 levels)
  • A LIN Protocol module allowing for intersystem communication within the door module as well as the main body controller.
The kit contains 4 modules, which can also be used in conjunction with the APGDT001 LIN Serial Analyzer to quickly create a working LIN network straight out of the box.
