Abstract
The disclosure relates to an MCU failure detection device and method. According to the disclosure, a device for detecting a failure in a microcontroller unit (MCU) comprises a receiver receiving first watchdog output information for determining a failure from an electronic control device, a determination unit determining whether the electronic control device has a failure based on the first watchdog output information, and upon determining that the electronic control device has the failure, transmitting a first reset signal to the electronic control device.
