Claim Text:
1. A monolithic integrated circuit comprising: a first sensor device configured to indicate a physical quantity, the first sensor device having a first signal path for a first sensor signal on a semiconductor chip; and a second sensor device configured to indicate the physical quantity, the second sensor device having a second signal path for a second sensor signal on the semiconductor chip, the second signal path separate and distinct from the first signal path and, when compared with the first signal path, having at least one characteristic selected from the group consisting of being slower, being less precise, having more noise and having a different working principle, wherein a first output signal related to the first signal path and a second output signal related to the second signal path are communicable from the monolithic integrated circuit to an external control unit.
