2. Description of the Related Art Among various sensors used for controlling an engine for an automobile, for example, the oxygen concentration in exhaust gas is detected.

As a method of forming the reference voltage, for example, in the signal processing circuit disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 9-126039, when the knock signal is integrated, the power supply voltage is divided into two equal parts by two resistors having the same resistance value.

For this reason, the pattern is designed such that the vicinity of the signal line is separated from the noise source, or the signal line is surrounded by a ground pattern. According to this method, the restrictions on the pattern layout are increased. Even if the pattern layout method of the above countermeasure is performed, it cannot be a fundamental countermeasure, and the noise emitted from the noise source causes noise to be mixed into the sensor signal and the signal of the sensor in which the noise is mixed. When is used for control, there is a risk of causing malfunction in engine control that worsens emissions.

In a control unit for an automobile, an oscillation circuit and a detection circuit for sensor signals are mounted together on a circuit board, but it is required to reduce the size of the unit and integrate the circuits. In a situation where the area needs to be reduced, the mounting positions of the oscillation circuit that is the noise source and the detection circuit of the sensor signal must always be considered, and the restrictions in pattern layout are large.
Even when actually taken into consideration, it was sometimes affected by the noise source. Even if a filter circuit is provided, it may be affected by the noise source.

In particular, the signal detection (signal acquisition) of the O 2 sensor is a sine wave signal in which the sensor signal periodically repeats rich and lean, and this sensor signal is taken out with reference to the DC bias point, but depending on the pattern layout. ,
If there is an oscillation circuit such as a crystal in the vicinity, noise will be mixed in at the DC bias point due to the noise source such as the oscillation circuit,
The sensor signal can be affected by this noise.

Further, in the case of the O 2 sensor, when the signal in which the noise from the oscillation circuit is mixed in the sensor signal has a specific periodicity, it is very similar to the signal of the deterioration characteristic of the sensor, and thus it is normal. The control unit cannot easily determine whether the signal is a signal or a signal affected by noise. As a result, there is a possibility that the emission may be finally deteriorated because the actuator is controlled by the signal mixed with noise.
