Zusammenfassung:A microcomputer is not stopped to be monitored even in a state in which a wrong standby signal is detected. A watchdog circuit 34 outputs a starting signal to a microcomputer 30. An output signal Q of a determination circuit 36 is reset by this starting signal. If the determination circuit does not detect a standby signal st when a clock signal CK is input from the started microcomputer, the output signal is set. However, if the determination circuit detects the standby signal st, the output signal is held in a reset state. Even if the standby signal st is input, because an AND circuit 38 does not output a standby signal ST due to the reset of the output signal Q, the watchdog circuit is prevented from entering a standby mode by the standby signal st.
