Microchip APGRD004, Automotive Ambient Lighting LED Reference Design

The Automotive Ambient Interior Lighting Module Reference Design demonstrates microcontroller-based control of RGB LED devices. This module can be controlled remotely by a master body controller via a LIN bus.

Very compact form-factor board
On-board PIC12F615 MCU, MCP2021 LIN transceiver/voltage regulator and RGB LED
LIN commands are interpreted by the module to control colour mixing (16383 colors) and intensity (1023 levels)
The kit ships with 4 modules to assign as lighting zones in a LIN or J2602 network
The modules can also be used in conjunction with the APGDT001 LIN Serial Analyzer to quickly create a working LIN network
