Control unit for vehicle
Abstract:
In a control unit for a vehicle, a redundancy circuit includes a main power source line, a back-up power source line, and a diode. The back-up power source line performs a voltage compensation operation when a voltage of the main power source line is lower than a predetermined voltage. The back-up power source line is turned on when a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the main power source line is turned on. The back-up power source line is turned off when a predetermined period of time has elapsed after the main power source line is turned off. The diode is disposed on the back-up power source line. The fault detector detects an open fault of the diode when a voltage of a cathode of the diode is lower than a predetermined threshold within the predetermined period of time after the main power source line is turned off.
