Abstract
An in-vehicle communication system includes communication lines connecting ECUs together in the form of a daisy chain, has a maximum transferable data length of 64 bytes or more, and selects a speed of data transfer from one of a plurality of transmission speeds more than or equal to 2 Mbps. Each ECU includes a substrate-side connector with surface-mounted connector pins. The connector pins include a first connector pin pair and a second connector pin pair. The first connector pin pair has leads whose lengths equal to each other. The second connector pin pair has leads whose lengths are equal to each other and different from those of the second connector pin pair. This minimizes the distortion of waveform of signals when the signals are transmitted at a speed higher than that in a high-speed CAN, thereby enables the number of nodes to be increased.
