  • System for data transmission in a motor vehicle, motor vehicle and method
    Patent number: 12567992
    Abstract: A system for data transmission in a motor vehicle includes a central control unit, a first zonal control module, and a first LIN bus. The central control unit includes at least a first LIN master and a second LIN master. The first zonal control module is operably coupled to the central control unit via a first data connection. The first LIN bus is operably coupled to the first zonal control module. A first LIN slave connected to the LIN bus is assigned to the first LIN master, and a second LIN slave connected to the LIN bus is assigned to the second LIN master.

  • LIN bus via backbone bus tunneling
    Patent number: 12316476
    Abstract: Embodiments relate to a system for transmitting data in a motor vehicle. A central electronic control unit comprises at least one LIN master, and at least one local controller, which is coupled to the central controller by means of a first data connection. The local controller is additionally coupled to a LIN bus, which is paired with the LIN master and to which at least one LIN slave is connected. The data transmission speed of the first data connection between the central controller and the local controller is faster than the data transmission speed of the LIN bus. Methods for actuating a LIN slave connected to a LIN bus and to a motor vehicle are also provided.
