摘要:
A computer system which shortens standby time of CPUs and improves CPU processing efficiency of a performance mode upon switching from the performance mode (parallel operation) to a safety mode (master/checker operation) is provided. In a computer system including: at least two CPUs; a programmable interrupt controller for interrupting the CPUs; and a comparator for mutually comparing outputs of the CPUs, switching between the performance mode of executing mutually different processes by the CPUs, respectively, to improve performance and the safety mode of executing mutually the same processes by the CPUs and collating results by the comparator to detect failure can be carried out; CPUs to be interrupted can be set for each interrupt factor; and whether the performance mode is to be executed or the safety mode is to be executed can be set for each interrupt factor.

In an A/D converter and a microcontroller including the same, the number of selection patterns of analog input channels is increased for each A/D conversion and the A/D conversion is conducted using an A/D converter having only fundamental functions without imposing load onto a CPU. The A/D converter or a DMA transfer device includes an A/D conversion table including one or more entries. Each entry includes enable bits for setting whether or not an A/D conversion is executed for the respective analog input channels and a plurality of count number bits for setting a number of executions of the A/D conversion.

This invention provides communications systems that enable broadcasting while making use of the simplicity of the prior art and also provides control devices and information processing systems incorporating the communications system. In this invention, chip-select signals are provided for transmitting (TXCSi) and receiving (RXCSi) independently as well as for individual chips as in the prior art. That is, a group of signals indicating whether or not a slave node is selected as the node to transmit signals to a master node and the direction of communications are output from the master node to the slave node.

First data to be written which is output from a function module (2) is supplied to a built-in memory (3) and a first buffer memory (11), and second data to be written which is output from the function module (2) is supplied to the built-in memory (3) and a second buffer memory (12). The first and second FIFO memories (13, 14) select and store data items having a predetermined number of outputs from a plurality of first and second output data items which are sequentially output from the first and second buffer memories (11, 12), and do not select other data items. A comparator (15) compares the data items having the predetermined number of outputs which are selected and are output by the first and second FIFO memories (13, 14) with each other.
