Abstract

A technique includes monitoring a sequence of bits of data communicated to a transmitter of a node, where the transmitter communicates signals with a bus in response to the sequence of bits. The technique includes determining whether the sequence of bits represents acknowledgement by the node that data was received from the bus in an associated data frame and represents detection by the node of an error associated with the data frame. The technique includes detecting a fault associated with the bus based on the result of the determination.
