An electronic control unit for a motor vehicle. A communication unit is arranged in a module housing that is configured to interchange communication data with at least one device-external vehicle component by means of at least one predetermined communication protocol. The communication unit provides a device-internal bus system, in which a controller device of the bus system provides for forwarding of the communication data within the control unit by means of a bus protocol that has an address space that is independent of the at least one communication protocol. The bus system has at least one bus connection for a respective additional computing module unit, different from the communication unit, of the control unit. The at least one bus connection is configured to connect the respective computing module unit to the central module housing from the outside.
