A measuring device includes a delta-sigma modulator configured to take an analog signal as a basis for generating a bit stream, and an evaluation unit that receives the bit stream from the delta-sigma modulator and evaluates the received bit stream. The measuring device has a single data transmission line, wherein the delta-sigma modulator is configured to transmit the bit stream to the evaluation unit via the single data transmission line using a transmit clock, and wherein the evaluation unit is configured to reconstruct the transmit clock and/or a phase of bits within the bit stream from the received bit stream and to extract the bits from the received bit stream based on the reconstructed transmit clock and/or based on the reconstructed phase.
