Abstract
A method for fault-tolerant operation of a processing unit having a plurality of sub-processing units. Each sub-processing unit is configured to process one or more partwords and to determine a result partword therefrom. The processing unit can be configured in a plurality of operation modes and is configured to process partwords of input words, which are arranged in sections of the input words, in the sub-processing units corresponding to the sections, and to determine an output word from the result partwords determined thereby depending on the operation mode. The method includes: determining adaptation partwords from input words to be processed that are suitable for processing in at least one fault-free sub-processing unit, and forming adaptation input words, in which the adaptation partwords are arranged in sections corresponding to the fault-free sub-processing unit; and processing the adaptation input words in a second operation mode to determine an adaptation output word.
