Initialization processing system of in-car microcomputer

An initialization processing system of an in-car microcomputer comprising:

• a microcomputer for performing operations on input signals and outputting a drive command to an actuator;
• a random access memory associated with said microcomputer and having a battery as a backup power supply;
• random access memory initialization means for writing a password into said random access memory when an ignition switch is turned off, reading a password from said random access memory when the ignition switch is turned on, making a password check to see if the read password is the same as the written password, and leaving a backup memory intact if both the passwords are the same or clearing the backup memory and executing random access memory initialization associated with switching the battery on if both the passwords are not the same;
• and
• an external interrupt port for writing a password into said random access memory, wherein said external interrupt port monitors low voltage and performs an interrupt when the battery is turned off and on instantaneously and performs processing associated with switching the ignition off;
• wherein said random access memory initialization means disables an external interrupt and initializes output of said external interrupt port when the ignition switch is turned on, makes a password check just after initializing output of the ports, then enables an external interrupt and executes initialization.
