Abstract
In a method for ascertaining an offset of an output signal of an evaluation circuit integrated in a sensor, the output signal is supplied to a control unit which analyzes the output signal, and a reset of the evaluation circuit for the adjustment of the output signal to a base level is performed prior to each measuring operation of the sensor, and the control unit ascertains the offset of the output signal of the evaluation circuit upon an occurrence of a start signal output by the evaluation circuit.
