Abstract
A system for monitoring an event chain including components for carrying out an automated driving function of a motor vehicle. A data switching unit is configured for switching a data exchange between at least one first and one second component. The monitoring module checks whether a monitoring signal to the second component is received by the second component at a basic clock rate. The data switching unit receives a receiving clock requirement, within which data are to be received by the second component, and transfers it, to the second component, at a basic clock rate corresponding to the receiving clock requirement or an integer multiple of the basic clock rate corresponding to the receiving clock requirement. A monitoring module is configured to check whether data transferred to the second component are received in the receiving clock requirement, and to release those for use by the second component.
