Abstract
This paper describes work undertaken in collaboration with Southampton University and European Silicon Structures (ES2). It is the basis of a LINK project titled "ASIC Subsystems for Smart Sensors" supported by the DTI and SERC. The aims of the project are to investigate the facilities offered by the inclusion of a microprocessor core in the signal processing ASIC, to develop additional cells to support the smart sensor concept and at a higher level in the hierarchy to develop reusable system level blocks which will permit rapid redesign to meet new applications
