Abstract
A vision system for a vehicle includes a camera, a power supply, a power filter and a microcontroller. The camera is configured to be disposed at a vehicle so as to have a field of view interior or exterior of the vehicle. The power supply is operable to supply a voltage for powering the camera. The power filter is in communication with the power supply and the camera and is operable to supply a voltage to the camera. The microcontroller is operable to measure a voltage level supplied to the power filter. Responsive to the determination that the measured voltage level is one of (i) a threshold amount above a nominal operating voltage of the camera and (ii) a threshold amount below the nominal operating voltage of the camera, the microcontroller adjusts the power supply to the camera.
