Abstract: A brake system for a motor vehicle and a related method includes a hydraulic service brake system, having a brake booster and is operable via a brake operating element, an electric machine, operable as a generator to brake the motor vehicle, and an electromechanical braking device. A setpoint braking torque is determined as a function of a brake pedal travel.

In the range of the idle travel, the setpoint braking torque is generated by the generator and/or the electromechanical braking device, and a portion of the electromechanical braking device in the setpoint braking torque is modulated as a function of a portion of the generator in the setpoint braking torque so that variations of the generator portion are compensated.

A main feature is that the generator is activated as a function of the pressure in the brake master cylinder, it being activated as soon as the pressure in the brake master cylinder exceeds an initial threshold value.

Abstract: A device for determining the saturation point of a vacuum brake booster having a vacuum chamber and a working chamber that are separated from one another by a membrane. The reaching of the saturation point can be recognized simply and precisely if the vacuum prevailing in the vacuum chamber is measured using a pressure sensor, and the output signal of the pressure sensor is evaluated by an electronic evaluation system that calculates the saturation point using a mathematical function, taking into account only the pressure prevailing in the vacuum chamber.
