Clock determination for a sensor |
摘要 |
A method for determining a clock for a sensor signal which has a synchronization signal, which method involves a control unit measuring the period between a first edge and a second edge of the synchronization signal, wherein both edges are either rising or falling, and the control unit taking the period as a basis for determining a clock for sampling data in the sensor signal. |

1. A method for determining a clock of a sensor, the method comprising:
transmitting a synchronization signal by a sensor in response to a trigger signal sent by a control unit; receiving the synchronization signal by the control unit; measuring, by the control unit, a period between a first edge and a second edge of the synchronization signal, wherein the edges are either rising or falling; determining, by the control unit, a local clock of the sensor from the period; and using, by the control unit, the local clock to sample data in a data signal received by the control unit from the sensor. |
