COUPLING ELECTRICAL SIGNALS ACROSS AN ELECTRICALLY INSULATING BARRIER

A system for coupling electrical signals between an interventional device (110) and a control unit (120) through an electrically insulating barrier (130), is disclosed. The system includes a connector (140). A device connector portion (140′) of the connector (140) includes at least one transmitter (...

Summary:A system for coupling electrical signals between an interventional device (110) and a control unit (120) through an electrically insulating barrier (130), is disclosed. The system includes a connector (140). A device connector portion (140′) of the connector (140) includes at least one transmitter (160) that transmits electrical signals representing i) transducer signals and 5 ii) synchronisation signals for the transducer signals. The transducer signals are generated at a distal portion (110″) of the interventional device (110), and the synchronisation signals are generated at a distal portion (110″) of the interventional device or in the device connector portion (140′). A control unit connector portion (140″) of the connector (140), or the control unit (120), receives the electrical signals, extracts the transducer signals and the 10 synchronisation signals from the electrical signals, and performs a timing correction on the transducer signals using the synchronisation signals.
