Ambient Temperature Input Process

The auto amp. includes a "processing circuit" for the ambient sensor input. When the ambient temperature increases quickly, the processing circuit controls the input from the ambient sensor. It allows the auto amp. to recognize the increase of temperature only 0.2° C (0.4° F) per 100 seconds.
As an example, consider stopping for a cup of coffee after high speed driving. Even though the ambient temperature has not changed, the ambient sensor will detect the increase of temperature. The heat radiated from the engine compartment can radiate to the front grille area. The ambient sensor is located there.
