What is Automotive Grade in Microcontrollers...
i find its input threshold level is Automotive level...
where can i find details regarding Automotive Grade..

Most of the time this means:

High insensitivity to electrical noise: Means 5V processors and NOT 3.3V or other types working at low voltages.
High temperature range: -40 C .... + 125C and sometimes even +140 C or higher.

All Microchip PIC12/16/18 and PIC30 working at 5V and -40 --- +125V will do.

Check for AEC-Q100 norm, this is one of the automotive specifications.

Hi,
These are AVRs for automotive applications: Atmel Products - Microcontrollers - AVR® 8-Bit RISC - Applications

Atmel Products - AVR Solutions - Automotive AVR

Hope this helps.
