Abstract
A signal interface has a compression unit and a data memory. The compression unit is configured to input an input datum from signal data generated by at least one sensor and further configured to identify the presence or absence of at least one repetition condition in the input datum. If the presence of the at least one repetition condition of the input datum is identified, the compression unit encodes the input datum in a compressed way to generate a compressed datum and saves the compressed datum in the data memory. If the presence of the at least one repetition condition of the input datum is not identified, the compression unit saves the uncompressed input datum in the data memory.
