In accordance with the present disclosure, an adaptive MEMS device (100) is described, and the MEMS device (100) includes a MEMS microphone (110) and an integrated circuit part (120), wherein the integrated circuit part (120) is electrically connected with the MEMS microphone (110). Moreover, the integrated circuit part (120) is configured to decode output signals (110-a, 250-a) from the MEMS microphone (110), and provide the output signals (110-a, 250-a) or a rendered output signal (120-a) to an external processing device (150) through a first integrated interface (130). In addition, the integrated circuit part (120) is configured to determine diagnosis data (120-b) about a current condition of the MEMS device (100) for a runtime, and provide the diagnosis data (120-b) to the external processing device (150) through a second integrated interface (140) for the runtime. 본 개시내용에서, 적응형 MEMS 디바이스(100)가 설명되고, MEMS 디바이스(100)는 MEMS 마이크로폰(110) 및 집적 회로부(120)를 포함하고, 여기서, 집적 회로부(120)는 MEMS 마이크로폰(110)에 전기적으로 연결된다. 게다가, 집적 회로부(120)는 MEMS 마이크로폰(110)으로부터 출력 신호(110-a, 250-a)를 판독하고, 제1 통합 인터페이스(130)를 통해 외부 프로세싱 디바이스(150)에 출력 신호(110-a, 250-a) 또는 렌더링된 출력 신호(120-a)를 제공하도록 구성된다. 추가적으로, 집적 회로부(120)는 실행 시간에 MEMS 디바이스(100)의 현재 조건에 대한 진단 데이터(120-b)를 결정하고, 실행 시간에 제2 통합 인터페이스(140)를 통해 외부 프로세싱 디바이스(150)에 진단 데이터(120-b)를 제공하도록 구성된다.
