This paper presents a new platform for interfacing a generic sensor for automotive applications, called ISIF (Intelligent Sensor InterFace). Such platform consists in a wide set of optimized high performance analog, digital and software IPs for various kind of sensors. These IPs can be extracted for fast prototyping accurate and reliable interface circuits for the target automotive application. Therefore the main advantage of this platform-based design approach is to give the possibility to bring up complex and ad-hoc sensor conditioning systems, reducing development risks, design effort, power consumption, costs and time-to-market.
