ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides an electronic circuit and EMI countermeasure for an automotive electronic control unit that provides a maximum amount of EMI protection under normal operating conditions, i.e., ambient temperatures. The effectiveness of the EMI countermeasure is limited at extremely high temperatures. The electronic circuit and EMI countermeasure optimizes the effectiveness of EMI countermeasures as a function of temperature to improve performance under normal conditions.
