Abstract: A method monitors a sensor clock signal in a sensor unit, which is generated and output for a data transfer between the sensor unit and a control unit with a predefined period duration. A reference clock signal having a predefined reference period duration is received. The sensor clock signal is compared to the reference clock signal. Based on the comparison, a deviation of the current period duration of the sensor clock signal from a target period duration is detected. Based on the detected deviation, a counting pulse or a reset pulse is emitted.

Abstract: A steering system for a trailing axle of a motor vehicle includes an electric motor, a hydraulic pump, a first valve, and a working cylinder. The electric motor is configured to drive the hydraulic pump. The working cylinder has a central bore and a piston positioned in the working cylinder. The first valve is fluidically connected to the pump such that the first valve is configured to block flow between the central bore and the pump in response to pressure generated by the pump, and to release the flow in response to a non-pressurized state of the pump in order to divert hydraulic fluid from the working cylinder through the central bore via an adhesion-driven movement of the piston into a central position in the central bore. A method includes operating a steering system for a trailing axle of a motor vehicle of this type.

Abstract: The invention relates to a method for automatically setting at least one parameter of an actuator control system which is designed to control a control variable of an actuator to a predefinable setpoint. The actuator control system is designed to generate a control variable depending on the at least one parameter, the setpoint and the control variable and to actuate the actuator depending on this control variable. A new value of the at least one parameter is determined depending on a stationary probability distribution of the control variable, and the parameter is then set to this new value.

Abstract: A brake booster for a brake system of a vehicle, having a first input piston component, and a valve body. The brake booster has a second input piston component, which is pushed away from the first input piston component in the braking direction using a compression spring, and a locking mechanism is embodied such that when the differential travel between the booster travel and the input travel is smaller than a predefined first limit value, the second input piston component is adjustable using the compression spring together with the valve body away from the first input piston component, and when the differential travel exceeds the first limit differential travel, the second input piston component is locked in place on the first input piston component.
Abstract: A method for operating an accelerator pedal-controlled distance controller of a vehicle. The distance controller regulates a distance to a target vehicle as a function of an actuator pedal value of the vehicle and activates automatic braking operations as necessary. A braking operation is aborted when the accelerator pedal value is increased during the braking operation.
