Abstract
A subscriber station for a serial bus system. The subscriber station has a communication control device for controlling a communication of the subscriber station with at least one other subscriber station of the bus system and for generating a transmit signal according to a frame; a receiving device configured to serially receive at least one signal from the bus; and a tamper check module for checking whether at least one predetermined field of a frame received from the at least one signal received from the bus has at least one pulse having a second bit value, which is inverse to the predetermined first bit value, in a received bit which has a predetermined first bit value and a predetermined duration.

A subscriber station for a serial bus system, comprising:
- a communication control device configured to control a communication of the subscriber station with at least one other subscriber station of the bus system and to generate a transmit signal according to a frame;
- a receiving device configured to serially receive at least one signal from a bus of the bus system;
- and
- a tamper check module configured to check whether at least one predetermined field of a frame which the receiving device created and received from the at least one signal received from the bus has at least one pulse having a second bit value, which is inverse to a predetermined first bit value, in a received bit which has the predetermined first bit value and a predetermined duration, wherein the tamper check module is also configured to discard the received frame after the at least one pulse is present which has the second bit value, which is inverse to the predetermined first bit value;
- wherein the tamper check module has a first counter configured to count a number of falling edges which occur from a beginning of the predetermined field of the received frame to an end of the predetermined field of the received frame.
