  • Patent number: 9026746
    Abstract: A signal control device includes: a dual port RAM from or to which data signals are read and written at predetermined operation timings by first and second CPUs connected to two ports, respectively; an address collision detection unit detecting collision between addresses in which the first and second CPUs respectively read and write the data signal from and to the dual port RAM; a first storage unit storing the data signal read by the first CPU; a second storage unit storing the data signal read from the address in which the second CPU writes the data signal to the dual port RAM when the collision between the addresses is detected; and a switching unit switching a reading source outputting the data signal to the port to which the first CPU is connected and outputting the read data signal to the first CPU entering a readable state.
