The earliest electronic systems available as factory installations were vacuum tube car radios, starting in the early 1930s.The development of semiconductors after World War II greatly expanded the use of electronics in automobiles, with solid-state diodes making the automotive alternator the standard after about 1960, and the first transistorized ignition systems appearing in 1963.
A system basis chip (SBC) is an integrated circuit that includes various functions of automotive electronic control units (ECU) on a single die. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] It typically includes a mixture between digital standard functionality like communication bus interfaces and analog or power functionality, denoted as smart power.
