Flexray communications module, flexray communications controller, and method for transmitting messages between a flexray communications link and a flexray participant

摘要

A FlexRay communications module for coupling a FlexRay communications link, over which messages are transmitted, to a participant, which is assigned via a participant interface to the FlexRay communications module. To provide a FlexRay communications module which will optimally support the communication processes in a FlexRay network, the FlexRay communications module includes a configuration for storing messages transmitted or to be transmitted between the participant and the FlexRay communications link, and a state machine which, to control the transmission of the messages, specifies and/or invokes sequences relating to information for storing messages in the configuration, for invoking messages from the configuration, and for transmitting the messages.
