Abstract: A vehicle seat according the disclosure includes a support structure, an airbag module attached to the support structure and including a deployable airbag, and a cover assembly positioned over the airbag module and attached to the support structure. The cover assembly includes a cover portion that covers the airbag module, and a support being made separately from the cover portion and being attached to the cover portion and the support structure. The support is configured to facilitate movement of the cover portion with respect to the support structure during deployment of the airbag.

Abstract: A chip protection register lock circuit uses a plurality of lock bits in a lock bit register. If the register contains N bits, N/2 bits of the register are coupled to an erase circuit and the remaining N/2 bits are coupled to a programming circuit. After the chip protection register is programmed, the group of N/2 bits coupled to the erase circuit are erased and the remaining N/2 bits are programmed such that an alternating pattern of logical ones and zeros are in the lock bit register. A read and compare circuit generates a lock indication if the alternating pattern is present.
