1. A vehicle controller comprising:
- a plurality of functional modules; and
signal lines and power lines connected with the functional modules,wherein one of the sides of the functional module is an interface side provided with signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected and power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected,wherein each of the interface sides is divided into a first interface region where signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected are disposed and a second interface region where power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected are disposed,wherein the plurality of functional modules is arranged in such a way that the respective interface sides thereof are adjacent to one another and oriented in the same direction; and
the first interface regions are disposed in the vicinity of one and the same end and the second interface regions are disposed in the vicinity of the other and the same end, andwherein the signal lines and the power lines can be attached or detached from one side.

Abstract
A vehicle controller is mounted in a box-shaped manner beneath the floor or on the roof of a vehicle so as to supply electric power to vehicle apparatuses. The vehicle controller is configured with a plurality of functional modules; each of the functional modules has at one side thereof an interface side in which a first interface region where signal-line terminals are arranged and a second interface region where power-line terminals are arranged are separated; in each of the interface sides, the first interface region is disposed at one and the same end and the second interface region is disposed at the other and the same end.

10. A vehicle controller comprising:
-
a plurality of functional modules; and signal lines and power lines connected with the functional modules, wherein one of the sides of the functional module is an interface side provided with signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected and power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected, wherein each of the interface sides is divided into a first interface region where signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected are disposed and a second interface region where power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected are disposed, Wherein the plurality of functional modules is divided into two groups and arranged in two rows; the respective interface sides thereof are arranged in such a way as to be adjacent to one another and to be oriented in the same direction; and
one group of the interface sides and the other group of interface sides are arranged in such a way as to face each other,wherein each of the interface sides of the one group and the other group are disposed in such a way that the respective first interface regions are arranged in the vicinity of one and the same end and the respective second interface regions are arranged in the vicinity of the other and the same end, and wherein, for each of the groups, the signal lines and the power lines can be attached or detached from one side. - View Dependent Claims (11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18)

19. A vehicle controller comprising:
-
a plurality of functional modules; and signal lines and power lines connected with the functional modules, wherein one of the sides of the functional module is an interface side provided with signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected and power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected, wherein each of the interface sides is divided into a first interface region where signal-line terminals to which the signal lines are connected are disposed and a second interface region where power-line terminals to which the power lines are connected are disposed, wherein the plurality of functional modules is divided into two groups and arranged in two rows;
the respective interface sides thereof are arranged in such a way as to be adjacent to one another and to be oriented in the same direction; and
one group of the interface sides and the other group of interface sides are arranged in such a way as to be oriented in the same direction,wherein, in each of the respective interface sides of the one group and the other group, one of the interface regions is disposed proximally from the middle of the rows and the other interface region is disposed distally from the middle of the rows, and wherein, for each of the groups, the signal lines and the power lines can be attached or detached from one side. - View Dependent Claims (20, 21, 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 27)
