Onboard apparatus, and onboard communication system
First Claim
1. An onboard apparatus comprising:
- a connection portion that connects with an external device mounted to a vehicle, and includes at least a data terminal to input and output a communication data and a control terminal to output a communication availability signal that indicates whether communication is available or not;
a control block that performs data communication with the external device, which is connected to the connection portion; and
a bus switch that, according to a permission signal, changes a non-conduction state to a conduction state of a transmission path from the control block to the data terminal, wherein a signal level of the permission signal varies when an output of the control block is stabilized after the onboard apparatus starts, andthe permission signal is provided bya reset signal generated by a start control portion to control the reset state of the control block, ora signal generated by the control block in synchronization with the reset signal.

Abstract
An onboard apparatus comprising a connection portion, a control block, and a bus switch is provided. The connection portion connects with an external device mounted to a vehicle, and includes at least a data terminal to input and output a communication data and a control terminal to output a communication availability signal that indicates communication is available or not. The control block performs data communication with the external device, which is connected to the connection portion. The bus switch, according to a permission signal, changes a non-conduction state to a conduction state of a transmission path from the control block to the data terminal. A signal level of the permission signal varies when an output of the control block is stabilized after the onboard apparatus starts.

6. An onboard apparatus comprising:
-
a connection portion that connects with an external device mounted to a vehicle, and includes at least a data terminal to input and output a communication data and a control terminal to output a communication availability signal that indicates whether communication is available or not; a control block that performs data communication with the external device, which is connected to the connection portion; a bus switch that, according to a permission signal, changes a non-conduction state to a conduction state of a transmission path from the control block to the data terminal, wherein a signal level of the permission signal varies when an output of the control block is stabilized after the onboard apparatus starts; an internal power supply that operates on power supplied from an external power supply and supplies power at a supply voltage that is different from the external power supply; and a start control portion that maintains a reset state of the control block at a timing to start the onboard apparatus, starts the internal power supply in response to reception of a start instruction starting the control block, and releases the reset state of the control block at a timing to stabilize an output voltage of the internal power supply, wherein; the permission signal is provided by a reset signal generated by the start control portion to control the reset state of the control block, or a signal generated by the control block in synchronization with the reset signal. - View Dependent Claims (7, 8, 9)
