Event Recorder with Timestamp
The main feature of the FM6124 is its event recording
capability. The FM6124 can monitor events occurring on
each of its 12 digital input pins. When an event occurs the
Event is recorded into the Event Buffer F-RAM memory
along with current the timestamp. The recorded event data
is retrieved through I
The FM6124 is a highly integrated part able to operate in
standalone mode and requiring a few external components
to operate.
Dedicated F-RAM for Event Recording
Based on profiles set by the user, Events are recorded in
nonvolatile F-RAM memory. Each event is timestamped
automatically. A programmable amount of nonvolatile
storage is available to record events (25%, 50%, 75% or
100%). Event recording is triggered by pin state changes.
Events will be recorded in a circular buffer unless emptied
by the host.
A host processor can download the Event log at any time
via the I
as the input pins and the RTC can be read directly through
the serial interface.
Event Definition
An Event is defined as either a rising or a falling transition
occurring on any given input pin. Each one of the input
pin can be individually configured to react on a rising edge
or a falling edge.
Two registers located at addresses 0x23 and 0x24 allow
one to individually configure each one of the FM6124
Input pin to trigger an event recording on either a Low to
High or a High to Low transition

C mapped registers.
VENT TYPE SUPPORTED
Simultaneous transitions on distinct input pins configured
to react to these transitions will be considered as distinct
events and they will be recorded as such.
The recording order of simultaneous events will be related
to the input numbering.
simultaneously on IN0, IN1, IN7 and IN10, the first event
recorded will be the one occurring on IN0 followed by the
one on IN1 then IN7 and IN10.
When simultaneous events occur, it is possible that the
timestamp recorded varies by 1 second.
