A vehicular electronic control apparatus includes a mother unit having a microcomputer, a plurality of ECU modules connected to the mother unit detachably and configured to execute respective vehicle controls, an operation data communication section for communicating with the microcomputer operation data used by the plurality of ECU modules in executing respective control operation processing, and alternative operation execution section for causing at least one of the other ECU modules and the microcomputer to execute, as an alternative operation, at least a part of the arithmetic operation processing, which is to be executed by at least one of the plurality of the ECU modules.

Vehicular electronic control apparatus

A control circuit board has a plurality of connectors that can connect each control module circuit board to control a plurality of in-vehicle equipment. A power supply circuit board has a power supply circuit that controls a power supply from a battery to a controlled equipment of the control module circuit boards connected with each connector. The control circuit board and the power supply circuit board are electrically connected and accommodated in a case. When the control module circuit boards are connected with any connector of the control circuit board, the power supply circuit is controlled by the control module and it becomes possible to control the controlled equipment such as engines.

Electronic control device for controlling a plurality of in-vehicle equipment

A card edge connector includes a housing, a first conductive part, a second conductive part, a connecting element, a first harness, and a second harness. The housing has an insertion hole for receiving an electronic substrate therein. The first conductive part and the second conductive part are disposed in the insertion hole and are configured to come in contact with respective terminals disposed on a surface of the electronic substrate. The connecting element is coupled with the second conductive part and extends in a direction approximately vertical to a planer direction of the electronic substrate so as to be away from the surface of the electronic substrate. The first harness is coupled with the first conductive part and the second harness penetrates a penetrated part of the connecting element.

Card edge connector and method of manufacturing the same

A card edge connector includes a housing, a first conductive part, a second conductive part, a supporting conductive part, a connecting element, a first harness, and a second harness. The housing has an insertion hole for receiving an electronic substrate therein. The first conductive part and the second conductive part are disposed in the insertion hole and are configured to come in contact with respective terminals disposed on a surface of the electronic substrate. The supporting conductive part is disposed in the housing in such a manner that supporting conductive part is farther away from the surface of the electronic substrate than the first conductive part is. The connecting element couples the second conductive part and the supporting conductive part, the first harness is coupled with the first conductive part, and the second harness is coupled with the supporting conductive part.
