Abstract

Embodiments relate to a system for transmitting data in a motor vehicle. A central electronic control unit comprises at least one LIN master, and at least one local controller, which is coupled to the central controller by means of a first data connection. The local controller is additionally coupled to a LIN bus, which is paired with the LIN master and to which at least one LIN slave is connected. The data transmission speed of the first data connection between the central controller and the local controller is faster than the data transmission speed of the LIN bus. Methods for actuating a LIN slave connected to a LIN bus and to a motor vehicle are also provided.
