Abstract
A CAN controller is equipped with a control circuit that can control whether or not an edge detection signal of a serial signal (CRX input) that is detected by an edge detection circuit is to be input to a re-synchronization circuit causing the execution of a re-synchronizing function prepared in accordance with a CAN protocol. The re-synchronizing function can be made ineffective by inputting into a control signal the control circuit. As a result, the state of synchronization of the CRX input that occurs due to the re-synchronizing function ceases to fluctuate. Therefore, in the CAN controller, a test can be performed with a high speed and stably and without being influenced by the execution of the re-synchronizing function.
