Method for improving analyzability of software error in microcontroller of motor vehicle, involves providing access to conditional information, and providing conditional information for analyzing software error

摘要

The method involves restarting a software element that is executed during operation of a microcontroller (2), during reboot. Conditional information is stored in a memory (7), during the execution of the software element or by detection of an error condition. The conditional information comprises condition of a program counter (5). The memory is not immediately overwritten or deleted during the reboot. Access to the conditional information is provided during or after the reboot. The conditional information is provided for analyzing a software error. An independent claim is also included for a system for improving analyzability of a software error in a microcontroller.
