Abstract: A failure detection frequency of failure diagnosis for a cut-off function can be improved. An on-vehicle control device includes a microcomputer that performs a control operation of an external device, a monitoring element that monitors the microcomputer, an output drive circuit that sends a control signal to the external device based on an instruction from the microcomputer, a communication circuit that switches a communication state with another on-vehicle control device based on an instruction from the monitoring element, and an energization cut-off element that energizes and cuts off a power supply voltage to be supplied to the output drive circuit based on an instruction from the monitoring element. The monitoring element independently instructs the switching of the communication state by the communication circuit and the energization and cut-off of the power supply voltage by the energization cut-off element.

Abstract: There is implemented an on-board controller including a single ground terminal, which can accurately detect a disconnection fault of a ground wire while avoiding erroneous detection due to a temporary voltage abnormality or current abnormality. A voltage at the positive electrode of a smoothing electrolytic capacitor is monitored. In addition, a current flowing through a shunt resistor is also monitored. Based on the monitored current value, there is calculated a voltage range (voltage threshold) at the positive electrode of the smoothing electrolytic capacitor in the case of disconnection of a ground wire. Thus, it is determined whether the ground wire has been disconnected by comparing the calculated voltage threshold with the monitored positive-side voltage described above.

Abstract: To provide an electromagnetic bad driving device capable of performing failure diagnosis of a relay more frequently. The electromagnetic bad driving device according to the present invention, interrupts the relay while an electromagnetic induction bad is under control, and diagnoses the relay on the basis of a surge voltage occurring at the interruption.

Abstract: Provided is a technique for performing failure diagnoses more frequently even in a case where the failure diagnoses are performed while a relay is cut off. An in-vehicle control device according to the present invention cuts off a relay during the period in which an electromagnetic load is energized, and diagnoses the failure of the relay based on the voltage of a portion connected in series with the relay.
