Abstract:
Provided is a vehicle control system that appropriately performs synchronization control for a plurality of control systems. A monitoring circuit generates a command signal when only a first reset signal is input. The monitoring circuit generates a command signal when the state in which only the first reset signal is input is changed to the state in which the input of the first reset signal is stopped. With the command signal, a second clock signal is output to a timer generator as a second timing signal. With the command signal, the second clock signal generated by a second synchronization signal generating circuit is output to a first synchronization signal generating circuit, and a third clock signal generated by the first synchronization signal generating circuit is output to a timer generator as a first timing signal.

Claim (Index 1):
A vehicle control system, comprising:\n a plurality of control circuits configured to control an operation of a control target in cooperation with each other; and at least one monitoring circuit configured to detect operation statuses of the control circuits, wherein each of the control circuits is configured to generate a synchronization signal for synchronizing operations of the control circuits, and control operations of the control circuits are synchronized based on the synchronization signal generated by a first control circuit out of the control circuits, and when the monitoring circuit detects that the operation status of the first control circuit is changed from a stopped state to an operating state while a remaining control circuit except the first control circuit continues to perform the control operation, the monitoring circuit is configured to synchronize the control operation of the first control circuit with the control operation of the remaining control circuit that is operating continuously based on the synchronization signal generated by the remaining control circuit that is operating continuously.
