Abstract:
In at least one embodiment, an apparatus for monitoring a power feed from a plurality of batteries in a vehicle is provided. The apparatus includes a controller. The controller includes a first circuit portion and a microprocessor. The first circuit portion is configured to receive a first signal indicative of a first power feed for a first battery and a second signal indicative of a second power feed for a second battery. The first circuit portion is further configured to transmit an interrupt signal indicative of each of the first power feed and the second power feed being equal to or below a minimum voltage threshold. The microprocessor includes an interrupt input and is configured to enter into an emergency operation mode to store data corresponding to at least one vehicle operation for a predetermined amount of time in response to receiving the interrupt signal at the interrupt input.
