Abstract
The present invention relates to an extracorporeale interface unit (), for an intravascular measurement system for measuring at least one physiological, or other, variable in a living body, adapted to generate a sensor signal in response of the variable. The interface unit () comprises a sensor interface circuitry () adapted to interface a sensor wire configured to be inserted into the living body and provided with one or many sensor element(s) at its distal region. The sensor interface circuitry () comprises a measurement unit () adapted to generate the measured data of the variable as a sensor signal. The interface unit () further comprises a control unit () adapted to control and supervise the different functions of the interface unit (), wherein the different functions are performed by predefined tasks (T, T. . . TN) during consecutive control periods CP having the same time duration.
