1. A sensor device comprising:
a physical quantity sensor for detecting a physical quantity; and
a processing circuit for generating and outputting a second signal,
wherein the second signal includes first data and second data,
wherein the first data was included in a first signal input from outside the sensor device,
wherein the second data indicates a detection result of the physical quantity sensor, and
wherein the processing circuit generates the second signal that complies with a protocol identical to that of the first signal, and
wherein the processing circuit receives a clock signal synchronized with the first signal, and processes the first signal based on the clock signal.
