An HVAC Integrated electronic Module (HIM) (41) for controlling airflow
through an HVAC module (12), the HVAC module including a variable speed
blower motor (18), a plurality of airflow doors (26-28) for controlling
air direction and hot-cold air temperature blend, and electrical actuators, servo
motors or stepper motors for said doors, the HIM including: one or more air temperature
sensors (22) for measurement of one or more of intake air temperature, outlet
air temperature, air-off evaporator temperature and engine coolant temperature;
actuator control circuitry (31) for controlling said electrical actuators,
servo motors or stepper motors; blower motor speed control circuitry (15)
for speed control of the variable speed blower motor; sensor control circuitry
for said sensors; and communication circuitry for a serial communication interface
(42) to enable communication with a vehicle users interface (32).
