In a motor vehicle control unit having a digital control circuit for controlling the electric current, in a way which is robust with respect to the voltage ripple of a vehicle on-board power system, of a control magnet valve for a motor vehicle hydraulic device with simultaneously improved dynamic behavior in response to jumps in a setpoint value current as a reference variable of the control circuit, at least one adaptive correction filter whose filter time can be adjusted dynamically on the basis of the change in level of the setpoint value current is provided in the feedback branch of the digital control circuit.
