Module Introduction

FAM/IPM/RAM consists of a power board and an electronic board. The power board contains circuit protection devices and switching devices. The electronic board uses Intelligent Power Switching (IPS) for HS/LS load control, logic functions and CAN/K-Line communication.

The power board and electronic board are connected with pin blocks for the Front Area Module (FAM) and Variable Connection Displacement (VCD) for the In-Panel Module (IPM) and the Rear Area Module (RAM).
