 Xcell Journal Online -- LIN Bus Automotive article - Issue 51
LIN is an inexpensive serial bus used for distributed body control electronic systems in vehicles.
One example is their LIN core, which occupies a fraction of a low-cost FPGA (for example, 13% of a 200,000 system-gate device), thus leaving space for additional LIN nodes, CAN nodes, UARTs, soft core processors, or simply glue logic.
A key benefit of having a LIN interface embedded within a PLD in the form of an IP core is that it can be reconfigured remotely to be either a master or a slave node, thus aiding greatly the test and design phases.

Lin's 'betrayal' was severely criticized in the Gang-of-Four-inspired "Campaign to Criticize Lin Biao and Confucius", which started in 1974.
