Millimeter Wave Radar Sensor Power Source Circuit [09/2014 - 11/2017]: Description

When the engine switch is turned on (IG), battery voltage is applied to terminal IGB of the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly.

This circuit provides power to the millimeter wave radar sensor assembly. The millimeter wave radar sensor assembly emits radio waves towards an object in front and measures the distance and direction of the object by receiving the beam reflections. Based on the reflections, the sensor calculates the difference in speed between the vehicle and the object in front. This data is transmitted to the driving support ECU assembly.
