Automotive microcontroller monitoring circuit and method, whereby a non-volatile memory, to which the microcontroller has read-write access, is used to generate error statistics relating to microcontroller operation

摘要

Method for monitoring the operation of a system (100) running at least one application in a microcontroller (300), whereby the microcontroller has at least one non-volatile memory region (10) to which it has read and write access. The memory region can be used to provide a statistic, especially an error statistic, relating to the microcontroller unit. An Independent claim is made for a system chip unit (200) for monitoring the operation of a microcontroller (300).
