I probably didn't explain that very well. The Motorola IC(Integrated Circuit) is part of what is inside the GM HEI. The drawing below that I found on the web is a quick and dirty depiction of the HEI module. The Motorola portion is what they are calling a signal converter. The npn transistor is actually a Darlington power transistor labeled MJ10012 in the block diagram in my previous link.
