  • Patent number: 10899341
    Abstract: A behavior control apparatus for a vehicle having a control unit for controlling a braking device and controlling a behavior of a vehicle by controlling braking forces of wheels. When the vehicle is in the non-braking state, the control unit acquires information on a lateral acceleration of the vehicle; calculates, based on the lateral acceleration of the vehicle, a target yaw moment of a feedforward control for reducing a rate of decrease of the vehicle's yaw gain accompanying with an increase in an absolute value of a lateral acceleration of the vehicle, and controls braking forces of the wheels by controlling the braking device so that at least a yaw moment corresponding to the target yaw moment is applied to the vehicle.

  • Patent number: 10606252
    Abstract: A control system includes a system power supply IC that operates based on a voltage outputted from a power supply circuit and supplies a voltage for operating a microcomputer to the microcomputer, monitors an abnormal condition of the microcomputer, and outputs a reset signal for resetting the microcomputer to the microcomputer when detecting an abnormal condition of the microcomputer. When detecting the abnormal condition of the microcomputer, the system power supply IC outputs a switch opening signal for forcibly turning off a switch, which, in response to the switch opening signal, stops supplying the voltage outputted from the power supply circuit to the motor driving circuit.
