To meet the initial needs of the automotive electronic control and warning system designers, standard linear integrated-circuit building blocks are recommended. These provide both design flexibility and quick reaction to change requests. Many new circuit approaches to single power supply operational amplifiers, comparators, lamp and/or relay drivers, timing circuits, and voltage regulators are presented and typical performance characteristics are given. Simplicity is emphasized to allow multiple circuits in a single package to reduce the cost/circuit function.
