Description

This part was taken from a Motronic M1.7.3 engine control unit (ECU), which was commonly used on 1.6L & 1.8L 4-cylinder BMWs of the mid-E36 generation. While this chip was likely used on a number of ECUs, the specific one in this case had Bosch PN 0 261 203 661.

Functionally, this chip is a 6-element array of TVS diodes connected in parallel with various analog engine sensors' inputs. It provides bipolar protection to the MCU's ADC inputs.
