Electronic control device and method of controlling logic circuit

Abstract

An electronic control device includes: a partially reconfigurable logic circuit in which a calculation unit which is reconfigured and executes calculation and a storage unit which stores calculation target date to be calculated by the calculation unit is configured; and a processing control unit which transmits circuit data for reconfiguring the calculation unit and the calculation target date to the logic circuit. When the processing control unit obtains next calculation target date which is the calculation target date relating to a next calculation unit which is the calculation unit after completion of reconfiguration, transmission of the next calculation target date to the storage unit is started regardless of whether the reconfiguration of the next calculation unit is completed, and upon completion of the reconfiguration, the next calculation unit performs calculation using the next calculation target date.
