Patent ID: 8041530

Claim:
A method for synchronizing multiple measurements across multiple sensors, comprising: selecting a first measurement from a list of measurement types; routing one or more of a plurality of input signals respectively from one or more of a plurality of sensors correspondingly to one or more of a plurality of signal conditioning circuits to enable the performance of the first measurement; determining if any of the plurality of signal conditioning circuits are available to perform a second measurement from the list of measurement types; selecting a second measurement from the list of measurement types when one or more of the plurality of signal conditioning circuits are available and enough signal conditioning circuits remain to perform the second measurement; and routing one or more of the plurality of input signals respectively from one or more of the plurality of sensors respectively to one or more of the plurality of signal conditioning circuits available to enable the performance of the second measurement, wherein the first measurement and the second measurement are performed simultaneously in parallel when no additional signal conditioning circuits remain to perform another measurement.
