Component Function Within System
- Generator provides DC voltage to operate vehicle's electrical system and to keep 12V battery charged.
- Generator has control module (IC regulator).
- The output voltage of generator is controlled by control module.
- Control module transmits/receives signal via LIN communication.
- Control module controls power generation voltage by target power generation voltage based on received target charge voltage signal.
When there is no power generation command signal, generator performs the normal power generation according to characteristic of control module.
