Abstract
A system including a sensor interface for determining a substitute frequency value via a sensor interface is provided. The system can include a first circuit receiving a frequency signal. The system can also include a sensor interface coupled to the first circuit and configured to determine a substitute frequency value based on the frequency signal. The system can also include a second circuit providing the substitute frequency value output from the sensor interface. The second circuit can provide the substitute frequency value in place of an analog input value by mimicking the behavior of an analog-to-digital converter. An apparatus including the sensor interface and methods of determining the substitute frequency value using a sensor interface are also provided.
