Abstract
A control device for a braking system of a vehicle equipped with an electric brake booster includes an activating unit which is configured to output, taking into account at least one provided sensor signal regarding a setpoint brake pressure, at least one brake pressure control signal to the electric brake booster in such a way that, if the setpoint brake pressure is below a predefined limiting value, a brake pressure portion effectuated on the booster side is equal to a difference between the setpoint brake pressure and a brake pressure portion effectuated on the driver side, while once the predefined limiting value is exceeded by the setpoint brake pressure, the brake pressure portion effectuated on the booster side remains constant or decreases.
