摘要:
A signal input circuit includes: a signal input device having a signal input terminal; an inspection capacitor connected between the signal input terminal and a reference potential; a connection unit connecting/disconnecting an inspection path between the inspection capacitor and the signal input terminal; a charge and discharge unit charging/discharging the inspection capacitor; and a determination processing unit carrying out a terminal failure detection processing. The determination processing unit controls the connection unit to disconnect the inspection path and controls the charge and discharge unit to set the voltage of the inspection capacitor to a terminal inspection voltage in a charge and discharge procedure, controls the connection unit to connect the inspection path in a continuity establishing procedure, and detects the terminal failure at the signal input terminal or a communication path from the signal input terminal based on a voltage of the inspection path.

The communication system including a master device and a plurality of slave devices communicatably connected to the master device is configured such that a selected one of the slave devices which is applied with a communication permission signal from the master device through a corresponding one of control lines performs communication with the master device. The master device includes a switching circuit that changes internal connection thereof such that the communication permission signal is applied to another one of the slave devices which should perform communication with the master device next.

In a data processor for processing pieces of input data successively sampled, a memory unit and a plurality of data transferring units for transferring data are provided. Each of the plurality of data transferring units has an upper limit number of data items successively transferable when activated. An activating unit is provided. The activating unit is configured to successively activate, within a predetermined time frame, the data transferring units without all of the data transferring units being deactivated within the predetermined time frame to thereby successively transfer the pieces of input data to the memory unit so as to store the pieces of input data therein.

A vehicular engine control unit has multi-CPU configuration. A main CPU executes a control processing subject to a monitoring processing and transmits monitoring data to a sub-CPU. The sub-CPU executes the monitoring processing based on the received monitoring data. The control processing executed by the main CPU and a control characteristic may be changed or modified in accordance with an engine capacity, a vehicle equipment or the like. Similarly, the monitoring data stored in a memory connected with the main CPU is also changed in accordance with the control characteristic and the like. Therefore, the sub-CPU can be commonly used for several arrangements or the control characteristics of the main CPU.
摘要:
A semiconductor memory device having wiring formed next to word lines at the extreme ends of the memory cell arrays or next to word lines of the dummy cell arrays, in order to prevent such word lines from breaking or from becoming deformed. The wiring is irrelevant to the circuit operation, but is provided with a fixed potential, and is formed through the steps of forming the word lines. The wiring makes the processing conditions applied to the neighboring word lines the same as the processing conditions applied to other word lines.

摘要:
The engine control apparatus includes a computing section which performs computation for engine control in synchronization with rotation of an engine, and an A/D converter which A/D-converts an analog signal necessary for the computing section to perform the computation, the analog signal being outputted from an external device such as a knock sensor. The computing section and the A/D converter are configured to enable detection of garble in the data transmitted from the A/D converter to the computing section on the side of the computing section without affecting the operation of the A/D converter.
摘要:
A device for detecting a motional position of an object in motion uses a first unit and a second unit which are communicably linked with each other. The first unit repeatedly produces positional information indicative of the motional position of the object in response to a change in motional position of the object. The change in position is detected by a positional sensor placed to sense a movement of the object and reflects therein a motion of the object. The positional information is pulsed information. The first unit repeatedly transmits produced positional information every time when change in motional position of the object reaches a given unit quantity of change. The second unit repeatedly calculates motional position of the object based on a predetermined procedure including repeatedly counting a starting edge of positional information transmitted from the first unit.
