More Information
Summary:A processor includes a controller that measures an error rate of a signal that propagates through a communication line; switches to use a spare line to perform a first communication when a first error rate of a signal that propagates through a first communication line of a first line group exceeds a first threshold, the first communication being performed using the first communication line; and switches to use the first communication line to perform the first communication and switches to use the spare line to perform a second communication when the first communication is performed using the spare line, when a second error rate of a signal that propagates through a second communication line of a second line group exceeds a second threshold higher than the first threshold, and when the first error rate is lower than the second threshold; and a processor core that exchanges information via the controller.
