Abstract: Connection patterns of plural diodes include a first series connection pattern and a second series connection pattern. The first series connection pattern extends from an input terminal in the X direction. The second series connection pattern has a portion through which a current flows to approach the input terminal. The first series connection pattern includes a first diode, which is the first diode counted from the input terminal. The second series connection pattern includes a second diode, which is the last diode counted from the input terminal. The second diode is disposed separately from the first diode with some distance therebetween in the Y direction. An N-type region of the first diode and a P-type region of the second diode directly oppose each other as viewed in a planar direction.

Abstract: A center prescribes, to a subject vehicle through wireless communication, at least one of a type of vehicle data to be collected, a conditional expression used when collecting the vehicle data, a sampling cycle when collecting the vehicle data, and a checking cycle of the conditional expression.

A vehicle-side checking section checks whether the resources of the subject vehicle are appropriate when the vehicle data is collected based on the prescription from the center.

Abstract: A vehicular drive assist system performs drive assist for a vehicle traveling in each predetermined area while receiving a feedback on evaluation relating to ease of travel on a road in each of the areas. In the system, a management center performs evaluation of ease of travel on a road for each of the areas on the basis of information obtained from the vehicle and feeds back the evaluation result to the vehicle. In this case, a variation width of the evaluation relating to ease of travel is restricted on a basis of static factors of road environment for each of the areas.

Abstract: The system includes a vehicle and a remote centre, which manages traveling information of a plurality of vehicles. The remote centre transmits a message containing a collection condition to the in-vehicle communication set by wireless communication. The message has a header and a plurality of frames. The header identifies the in-vehicle communication set as the destination. Each frame has three fields. The Destination ECU is not used in the message from the remote centre to the communication set. A destination information conversion unit in the in-vehicle communication set fills in this field before sending the frame over the vehicle network. An information collection control device collects vehicle data from control devices connected to the vehicle network according to the collection condition and returns collected vehicle data to the remote centre.
