Device for monitoring periodicity of messages sent over a multiplexed transmission network with a CAN-type formation

摘要

Device for monitoring the periodicity of the messages sent over a multiplexed data-transmission network, in particular of a motor vehicle, characterized in that it includes a memory (4) for storing object messages which are received from the network and each have a value (8) indicating the reception deadline of the message, local clock means (9) which are synchronized by a periodic internal signal and continuously generate a local time-value signal, means (13) for comparing each message-reception deadline value (21, 22, 23) with the local time value and for generating an overdue signal when the value indicating the reception deadline of the message is less than or equal to the local time value, and means (15) for generating a signal, intended for an external microcontroller (5) and indicating that the message has not been received, on the basis of the overdue signal.
