1. A device for processing rotation-dependent measured values, comprising:
a data converter;
a sequencing control; and
an output interface;
wherein the data converter is adapted to receive, at constant time intervals of a measuring interval, series of measured values that are a function of rotation of a shaft, at least one measured value including an angle value that indicates an angular position of the shaft;
wherein the data converter is adapted to,
subdivide a rotation of the shaft into a plurality of sectors, each sector having an equal angular range,
for each of at least one of the sectors, allocate a plurality of received measured values to a sector using an angle value as a reference angle value, and,
per rotation of the shaft, determine, from the allocated plurality of received measured values, for each series of measured values, exactly one result value representative of the plurality of received measured values for the sector; and
wherein the data converter is adapted to output the result values to the output interface.
