Abstract: A base plate for a circuit board assembly, to which an electronic component is soldered, has a through-hole. A screw hole is formed in a housing, to which the base plate is fixed by screw members. Multiple screw-fixing portions are formed in an electronic device, so that each of the screw members is inserted through each of the through-holes of the base plate and fixed to the housing in each of the screw-fixing portions. Two projections are formed at a first casing of the housing in each of the screw-fixing portions, so that the base plate is in contact with the first casing at two contacting points formed by the projections. The projections are symmetrically formed with respect to a center of the screw hole.

Abstract: A gas-sensor control device includes a sweep circuit, a return sweep circuit, and a control portion. The sweep circuit energizes a detection current to flow through an oxygen sensor to calculates an impedance of the oxygen sensor. The return sweep circuit energizes a neutralization current to flow through the oxygen sensor in a direction opposite to a direction of the detection current, so as to remove electricity from the oxygen sensor that is energized by the detection current. The control portion executes a detection of an off failure of the sweep circuit and the return sweep circuit, only based on a sensor voltage acquired in a time period where the neutralization current flows through the oxygen sensor, and a threshold.

Abstract: A load drive apparatus includes a switching element, a current detection circuit, a short circuit detection resistor, and a reflux diode. The switching element is placed to a high side of the inductive load, is interposed between the voltage source and the inductive load, and controls a current supplied to the inductive load. The current detection circuit is placed to a low side of the inductive load, and detects a current value of a current flowing through the low side of the inductive load. The short circuit detection resistor is interposed between the current detection circuit and a ground. The reflux diode is placed in a forward direction of the reflux diode and connects a middle point between the short circuit detection resistor and the current detection circuit with a different middle point between the switching element and the inductive load.

Abstract: A control apparatus that controls a gas concentration sensor includes a sweep circuit, a current detection resistor, and a calculation portion. The sweep circuit supplies the gas concentration sensor with a sweep current. The calculation portion calculates impedance of the gas concentration sensor. The gas concentration sensor and the current detection resistor are sequentially connected in series along a direction from the sweep circuit to a reference voltage. The sweep circuit has a constant voltage circuit and a reference resistor. An increasing and decreasing tendency of a manufacturing variation of the reference resistor and an increasing and decreasing tendency of a manufacturing variation of the current detection resistor are identical. The calculation portion divides a product of a resistance value of the current detection resistor and a time variation of applied voltage to the gas concentration sensor by a time variation of applied voltage to the current detection resistor.

Abstract: An electronic control device has a housing and an air breathing filter assembled to a through-hole of the housing. The air breathing filter has a filter supporting member and a filter cover member. A cylindrical portion of the filter supporting member is inserted into the through-hole from an inside space of the housing, while the filter cover member is fixed to the cylindrical portion of the filter supporting member from an outside of the housing. A pushing portion is formed in a leg portion of the filter cover member for pushing a wall of the housing in a downward direction. A water-proof sealing member is interposed between an inner wall surface of the housing and a flanged portion of the filter supporting member, so that a gap between the housing and the air breathing filter is surely sealed.

Abstract: A control circuit includes a sweep circuit for supplying a sweep current to a gas concentration sensor, a current detection resistor for detecting a sensor current flowing in the gas concentration sensor, a calculation circuit for calculating an impedance of the gas concentration sensor based on the sensor current and an inter-terminal voltage of the gas concentration sensor, and a protective element for suppressing external noise from being applied to the sweep circuit and the calculation circuit. The sweep current is divided to flow in a first protective element and the gas concentration sensor. The sensor current is divided to flow in a second protective element and the current detection resistor. The calculation circuit calculates a loss current flowing to the first protective element or a second loss current flowing to the second protective element and calculates the sensor current based on the calculated current.
