Abstract

See full text

An integrated data concentrator, so-called “sensor hub”, for a multi-sensor MEMS system, implements: a first interface module, for interfacing, in a normal operating mode, with a microprocessor through a first communication bus; and a second interface module, for interfacing, in the normal operating mode, with a plurality of sensors through a second communication bus; the sensor hub further implements a pass-through operating mode, distinct from the normal operating mode, in which it sets the microprocessor in direct communication with the sensors, through the first communication bus and the second communication bus. In particular, the sensor hub implements the direct pass-through operating mode in a totally digital manner.
