First Claim
Patent Images
1. A signal acquisition device, comprising:
- a storage arrangement;
a receiving arrangement to receive an input signal from a sensor module, physical data from a physical data processing module, timing data from a timing module; and
a generating arrangement to generate output data, which includes a new state of the input signal, which is one of high and low, the physical data and the timing data.

Abstract
A signal acquisition device which receives an input signal, a physical data and a timing data to generate an output data. The signal acquisition device keeps monitoring the input signal for a valid edge. When a valid edge is detected, the signal acquisition device reads the physical data from a physical data processing module and a timing data from a timing module to generate the output data which comprises the new state of the input signal, the physical data and the timing data. The output data is written to a storage arrangement and also sent out to CPU or any other devices.
