A controller for a vehicle AC generator that allows the aging test time of
a CMOS logic circuit to be reduced is provided. The controller includes a
specified signal detecting circuit connected to a third external terminal
to detect a specified signal, a voltage selector circuit that generates a
voltage selector signal in response to the detection output of the
specified signal detecting circuit, and a power supply circuit connected
to the first external terminal to output, as internal power supply
voltage, first power supply voltage in a first state in which the
specified signal is not input to the third external terminal and second
power supply voltage higher than the first power supply voltage in a
second state in which the specified signal is input to the third external
terminal.
