The present invention relates to overflow protection of a buffer of a first-in-first-out type, able to store a first number x of messages from the digital module. The method is characterised by creating and sending pace messages to the buffer from the digital module, addressed to the first module itself, and keep track of the pace in which they are sent and received. The criterion for sending pace messages is based on the number of sent messages. The sending of messages is halted if a criterion, based on the number of sent pace messages and the number of received pace messages, determines that there exists a risk for overloading the buffer. The device comprises means for creating a pace message, a pace sender for sending the pace message, a receiver for receiving the pace message, and means for halting the process of sending messages.
