Abstract:
1. A method for manufacturing a sensor, comprising: determining subassembly-specific data of each of a plurality of electronic subassemblies, the data comprising test data determined using functional tests of the respective subassembly, the functional tests being performed before assembly of the subassemblies into an electronic module of the sensor; storing the subassembly-specific data in respective storage devices of the subassemblies; assembling the subassemblies into the electronic module; electrically coupling the subassemblies to a processor of the electronic module; reading out the data from the storage devices by the processor during an initial start-up of the sensor; and evaluating the storage device contents by means of the processor; wherein the processor uses the data to check if a respective subassembly has successfully passed a functional test of the subassembly, to check if the subassemblies of the electronic module were assembled correctly, and to perform a calibration of the electronic module using the test data of the respective subassembly; wherein the data comprises an identification code for identifying the subassembly or the manufacturer; wherein the data is evaluated by the processor before starting an operating mode of the sensor.
