A vehicular rearview mirror system includes an interior rearview mirror
assembly having an interior electrochromic reflective element, a housing
for the interior electrochromic reflective element, and digital circuitry
supplying a drive signal to the interior electrochromic reflective
element. The interior electrochromic reflective element assumes an
interior mirror partial reflectance level in response to the interior
mirror electrochromic reflective element drive signal. The digital
circuitry includes a microcontroller for controlling over a vehicle
network at least one other vehicle function. One of the at least one
other vehicle function includes an exterior mirror assembly that may
include an exterior electrochromic reflective element that assumes an
exterior mirror partial reflectance level in response to an exterior
mirror electrochromic reflective element drive signal. The
microcontroller may control the exterior mirror partial reflectance level
of the exterior electrochromic reflective element over the vehicle
network.
