Method for programming control unit, involves storing control unit dataset in control unit, where dataset is partitioned into end of line areas, which are released in response to program request for alterations

摘要

The method involves storing a control unit dataset (DS) in a control unit, where DS is partitioned into end of line (EOL)-areas (EOL1-EOLn), which are released in response to a program request for alterations. Checksums (C1-Cn) are formed and stored over each EOL area of the DS, which is readout, changed and stored again on a place of the actual DS. Another checksums are formed over each EOL area of a changed dataset, where the checksum is compared with the stored checksum of the respective EOL area of the actual DS. An independent claim is also included for a control unit with an administrative unit for a memory to receive a control unit dataset.
