ABSTRACT:
The invention relates to an integrated circuit with a single sensor element (1) for converting a physical variable into an electrical signal, comprising a comparator unit (4) by which means the electrical signal of the sensor element (1) can be compared with various different threshold values in order to produce different discreet circuit states and an output unit (5) for outputting an output signal representing the different discreet circuit states or the comparator unit (4). The threshold values of the comparators of the comparator unit (4) are stored in a storage unit of the integrated circuit in such a way that they can be regulated with a control device (3). The integrated circuit has a single output terminal (7a) on which the various circuit states of the electrical signal can be picked off in code.
