Abstract
A sensor module includes a sensor element set up to output a sensor signal, an A/D converter connected to the sensor element, a signal transmission unit connected to the A/D converter and set up for the transmission of a sensor signal converted by the A/D converter, and a supply signal tap at which an unconverted supply signal that represents a supply voltage or a supply current of the sensor module is present. An input of the A/D converter is connected to the supply signal tap. The unconverted supply signal that represents a supply voltage or a supply current of the sensor module is converted into a converted supply signal by the A/D converter that converts the sensor signal.
