Question regarding onboard signal processing functionality

Quick/simple/dumb question, that will expose my newcomer status:

Does the IMU shield board perform any on-board processing of the sensor data (e.g. filtering, calibration, etc), or is it just outputting the raw ADC values to the ArduPilot board?

I have looked through the schematic, and can only see a serial ADC device between the sensors and headers, no processor.

Thanks,

Rod.

    The IMU shield has no on-board processing (aside from the FTDI/USB chip). It just passes the ADC values to the ArduPilot board.
