Abstract: A standby current of an arithmetic control unit configured to execute a control operation based on an activation signal generated by an uncertain manual operation is suppressed. A power supply relay configured to supply power to an arithmetic control unit is driven so as to be closed by a power supply switch, to thereby apply drive control to a main electric apparatus, and apply drive control to an auxiliary electric apparatus in accordance with a composite activation signal generated by an activation signal processing unit responding to closing operations of activation command elements even when the power supply switch is opened. As a result, a standby current generated in the activation signal processing unit is greatly suppressed compared with a case in which the arithmetic control unit is intermittently activated.

Abstract: To downsize a power smoothing capacitor substrate unit for opening/closing modules configured to convert a low-voltage DC power to AC power to drive a three-phase AC motor. A plurality of unit capacitors (101) being a conductive polymer aluminum electrolytic capacitor are connected between a positive-side first conductive plate (10P0) connected to a positive-side power supply terminal (125P) and a negative-side second conductive plate (10N) connected to a negative-side power supply terminal (124N), and three or more capacitor rows are arranged for each of three pairs of divided power supply terminal blocks (130B) connected to the opening/closing modules (90B) and one or more capacitor rows are arranged between the terminal blocks. Accordingly, ripple currents in a large number of capacitors connected in parallel to each other are equalized to prevent a temperature increase in each capacitor.

Abstract: A plurality of pairs of contact terminals accommodated in a card edge connector include back surface members having one ends to which lead wires are connected and another ends being folded to form movable members. Until a circuit board of a control unit is inserted, end portions of the movable members are held in conductive contact with each other. When the circuit board is inserted, the movable members are separated and brought into contact with copper foil terminals. When the circuit board is removed, the movable members plastically deform and are opposed to each other with an initial gap smaller than a thickness dimension of the circuit board. With this arrangement, wiring inspection may be performed with opposed movable members shorted to one another, but for subsequent circuit board insertion at the second or subsequent insertion and removal of the circuit board, the movable members will be slightly separated by a gap to suppress slide abrasion during insertion.

Abstract: An in-vehicle engine control apparatus allowing split injection frequency or split injection of fuel while preventing a driving switch element for fuel injecting electromagnetic coils and a boosting switch element for generating a boosted high voltage from being overheated. An operation control circuit portion has reference data of measured environmental temperature vs allowable engine rotational speed with a selected value of the split injection frequency being a parameter, and determines the selected value having, as an upper limit, a split injection frequency which makes the internal temperature of the boosting switch element or a rapidly exciting switch element a predetermined allowable limit value in association with the present environmental temperature detected by an average environmental temperature detection element in a case and the present engine rotational speed detected by an engine rotation sensor.

Abstract: A circuit board with circuit components mounted thereon is integrally molded with a sealing resin having a sealed end face part that is a thermosetting resin. A cylindrical intermediate adapter is bonded and fixed to the sealed end face part with an opening into which a receptacle body of a connector housing is inserted. A resilient contact connected to a lead wire is caused to be in electrical contact with a copper foil trace terminal of the circuit board. The connector housing and the intermediate adapter are made of a thermoplastic resin resistant to crack failure, which improves handling capability for inserting and withdrawing a connector.

Abstract: Second display means front parts, each including an immersion liquid surface level display for a coating liquid for moisture prevention and a lead-free display mark, are formed respectively in upper portions on a left side and a right side that are opposite sides having the one side interposed therebetween. A first display means front part including a board management document number, which defines a material for solder, is formed in a lower portion of the printed circuit board. A lead-free display mark (PBF) is not buried in or mixed with a large number of circuit information displays in the board, and a detailed management number is described in a reduced size to conserve space. Thus, the important lead-free display mark can be displayed with large character marks that also serve to manage a liquid surface.

Abstract: An electronic equipment unit includes a multi-layer circuit board. A part arrangement region on which circuit parts are mounted and a terminal region are provided on the multi-layer circuit board. The part arrangement region is encapsulated with resin. An outline region is formed from a solder resist film surrounding the part arrangement region to prevent the resin from flowing into the terminal region. A non-solder resist region is provided so as to surround the outline region and formation of the solder resist film is inhibited in the non-solder resist region. A clamp abutting surface which is pressed by a mold and surrounds the terminal region and thereby prevents the resin from flowing into the terminal region is a partial region of the multi-layer circuit board where a surface layer circuit pattern is absent.

Abstract: On-vehicle electrical loads (121,122) are connected to an on-vehicle battery (101) via a series circuit including a load switching element (221,222) and a reverse current interrupting element (200a) for a load circuit, and a feeding switching element (120A) that is closed in response to closure of a power supply switch (110). The element (FET) (200a) is closed when the switch (110) is closed and a power supply voltage is applied to a load power supply terminal (Vba) connected to the element (120A), to thereby be energized in an energization direction of an internal parasitic diode thereof. The element (200a) is de-energized when the switch (110) is opened. Thus, malfunction is prevented, which occurs when the element (120A) is opened, a short-to-power flows backward via the element (200a) into the terminal (Vba) so as to feed power to another device connected to the element (200a).
