Abstract

A control device and a method for operating an electromechanical brake booster of a brake system configured to execute anti-lock control actions, including the steps: determining a setpoint variable regarding a setpoint brake pressure to be produced by the electromechanical brake booster, in view of at least a differential travel; and controlling the electromechanical brake booster in view of the determined setpoint variable; at least during an anti-lock control action carried out in the brake system, it being ascertained if the differential travel lies outside of a specified normal value range, and in some instances, the additional steps being executed: determining a correction variable for the setpoint variable in view of at least a difference between the determined setpoint variable and an actual variable regarding an actual pressure present in at least part of the volume of the brake system, and controlling the electromechanical brake booster in additional view of the determined correction variable.
