Abstract
A system and method for redundantly monitoring faultless functioning of first and second rotational speed sensors on an electric motor, where the rotational speed is to precisely determine and monitor a rotor position, where a first product is formed from a first current count of the first output signal of the first sensor and a maximum count of the second output signal, a second product is formed from a second current count of the second output signal of the second sensor and a maximum count of the first output signal, the two products are cyclically checked for equality and, in when the check is negative, an error message is generated, where the method provides the position of both sensors in a common values system and the positions can be directly compared with one another such that precise determination and monitoring of the rotor position becomes possible.
