Abstract

A sensor includes an electronic module that comprises several electronic subassemblies and a processor that can be electrically coupled to the electronic subassemblies. The subassemblies respectively feature a programmable storage device with subassembly-specific data of the respective subassembly. The content of the respective programmable storage devices can be read out and evaluated by the processor.
