Abstract
A method and device and a bus system for generating at least one program interruption in at least one user of a bus system, at least one user storing a specifiable time value in at least one memory and the time value being compared with at least one base time, the at least one program interruption being triggered when the time value is equal to the base time.
Claims14
A method for generating at least one program interruption in at least one user of a bus system, comprising:
- storing, by at least one user, a predetermined time value in at least one memory;
- comparing the time value with at least one progressing base time;
- and
- when the time value is reached by the progressing base time, triggering the at least one program interruption, the progressing base time corresponding to a time valid for the entire bus system, so that the time value determines a defined program interruption point.
1 more element
A device for generating at least one program interruption in at least one user of a bus system, comprising:
- at least one memory storing a predetermined time value;
- and
- a comparator which compares the time value with at least one progressing base time, and when the time value is reached by the progressing base time, triggers the at least one program interruption, the progressing base time corresponding to a time valid for the entire bus system, so that the time value determines a defined program interruption point.
A bus system, comprising:
- at least two users, at least one of the users including a device for generating at least one program interruption, the device including at least one memory storing a predetermined time value, and a comparator configured to compare the time value with at least one progressing base time, and when the time value is reached by the progressing base time, triggers the at least one program interruption, the progressing base time corresponding to a time valid for the entire bus system, so that the time value determines a defined program interruption point.
