Abstract
A failure diagnosis circuit configured to diagnose an open-circuit failure in a reverse connection protection transistor includes a power supply unit having a switching transistor electrically connected to a power source and the reverse connection protection transistor and is brought into an on state or an off state in response to a control signal, and in which power is supplied from the power source to the reverse connection protection transistor when the switching transistor is in the on state; a power supply control unit that controls power supply to the reverse connection protection transistor and stop of the power supply by outputting the control signal to the switching transistor; and a diagnosis unit that diagnoses an open-circuit failure in the reverse connection protection transistor on the basis of an output state of the control signal and a detection result of voltage between the switching transistor and the reverse connection protection transistor.
