Electronic assembly and automotive luminous device

An automotive luminous device comprising:

• an electronic assembly including:
• a first group of light sources, intended to contribute to a first luminous function;
• a second group of light sources, intended to perform a second luminous function;
• a driver element configured to control an operation of the first group of light sources and of the second group of light sources;
• and
• a mode selection circuit, configured to receive a mode selection control signal and to provide an output signal with a control value which depends on the mode selection control signal, wherein the mode selection control signal includes at least one of a first control signal and a second control signal;
• wherein the driver element includes:
• a first input configured to receive power;
• a second input configured to receive the output signal of the mode selection circuit;
• and
• an output which is received by the first group of light sources and by the second group of light sources, so that the operation of the first group of light sources and of the second group of light sources is controlled by the output of the driver element;
• wherein the first group of light sources includes a first switch controlled by the first control signal and the second group of light sources comprises a second switch controlled by the second control signal, wherein the first luminous function is the rear fog lamp and the second luminous function is the reversing lamp;
• and
• an optical element arranged to project the light emitted by the first group and the second group of light sources,
• an input protection circuit which is configured to receive a first power signal and a second power signal;
• the input protection circuit includes a first protection output connected to the first input of the driver element, so that the input protection circuit controls the power received by the first input of the driver element as a function of the first power signal and the second power signal;
• and
• the input protection circuit includes a second protection output which receives one of the first and second power signals and provides the mode selection control signal.
