Abstract
A computer-implemented method for operating a transducer database includes creating an electronic datasheet for a type of sensor on a computer, and registering the electronic datasheet for the type of sensor in a transducer database. Creating an electronic datasheet may include specifying attribute values for the type of sensor in the transducer database via a network connection. Registering may include storing the first electronic datasheet in the database. A sensor may be coupled to a system that obtains the electronic datasheet over a network and configures a device or software program. The sensor may have only analog interface connections.
