Abstract: An optical and electronic integrated switch includes a network processor that controls the functions of the packet switch, a plurality of optical transceivers having photoelectric conversion functions, and a plurality of optical switches. The optical switches include different types of optical core switch and a plurality of optical-path selection switches. The optical transceivers provided near the processor have a regenerative relay function that regenerates optical signals and turns back the optical signals, and perform optical communication with a communication counterpart via the optical switches. In the optical communication, optical switches of the different types can cooperate to set paths for optical cut-through in which path selection is performed such that inputted optical signals are outputted without the intervention of the processor. This optical cut-through can be effectively performed without imposing a signal processing burden that consumes electric power on the processor.

Abstract: A boost switching device (115) for generating a boosted high voltage (Vh) includes a slew rate selection circuit (115s), decreases a selection value (k) to suppress noises when the temperature of the boost switching device (115) is low, and increases the selection value (k) to suppress a temperature increase when the temperature thereof is high. An internal average temperature of an in-vehicle engine control apparatus (100) is detected by an environmental temperature detection device (139), reference data (400) provided in a calculation control circuit unit (130) is used to calculate a relationship between a permissible engine rotational speed (Nk) at which the split injection can be continued at a current measured environmental temperature (Tx) and the selection value (k), and an appropriate selection value (k) corresponding to a current engine rotational speed (Ne) is determined.

Abstract: A first external tool (10A) serially connected to an electronic controller (20A) through a pair of communication lines (LANH, LANN) applies a high voltage (Vaa) higher than a normal control voltage (Vcc) to the communication line (LANH) when a program is written. The electronic controller (20A) recognizes connection of the first external tool (10A) by a comparison circuit (212A) for monitoring a received voltage and a write-mode determination circuit (218A), initializes a microprocessor (200), and receives and stores an total control program (TCPRG) in a program memory (204A) based on a content of a boot program memory (201). During an operation of the electronic controller (20A), the external tool (10A) is removed and the high voltage (Vaa) is not applied to the communication line (LANH). Therefore, the electronic control apparatus is not erroneously placed in the write mode.
