Abstract: The present invention relates to an electronic circuit for reading out a plurality of sensor elements while disadvantages like degradation of analog signal transfer is avoided. The electronic circuit comprises a plurality of sensor elements (1, 11, 1-2, . . . ), each having at least a first and a second state and an output that conveys a trigger signal when the sensor element (1, 1-1, 1-2, . . . ) switches from the first state to the second state, a plurality of registers (R-1, R-2, . . . ) that are coupled to the outputs of the sensor elements (1, 1-1, 1-2, . . . ), a counter (CNT) that in an active state conveys a counter signal that is changing with a given clock rate, means for storing the counter signal into one of the registers (R1) when the trigger signal of one of the sensor elements (1-1 Y is received, and means for uniquely assigning the stored counter signal to the triggering sensor element (1-1).
