Abstract: To provide an electrolytic capacitor having lead wires excellent in weldability with a boss member made of aluminum, excellent in solder wettability, and less whisker. The lead wires have a nickel plating layer in a thickness of 0.3 to 5.0 ?m, a palladium plating layer in a thickness of 0.01 to 0.10 ?m, and a gold plating layer in a thickness of 0.002 to 0.030 ?m.

Abstract: A network system for transmitting vehicle data has a bidirectional multidrop ring in which data communication between data transmitting nodes and corresponding data receiving nodes is carried out even if a breakage or some other trouble occurs at a portion of the multidrop ring. This system ensures safe and reliable control of various vehicle loads for a long period of time. At least one multidrop bus or at least one further bidirectional multidrop ring may be electrically connected to the first-mentioned bidirectional multidrop ring, thereby widening the applicability of the system to the control of vehicle loads.
