Method and system of a timer based buffer used for metrology

摘要

Described herein are embodiments of methods and systems of using a timer based memory buffer for metrology. One embodiment of the method comprises receiving metrology data from one or more metrology sensors; writing at least part of the metrology data to a volatile memory; incrementing a write pointer to indicate the metrology data contained within the volatile memory; and repeating the above until a timer expires, then reading at least a portion of the metrology data from the volatile memory.

1. A method comprising:
a. receiving metrology data from one or more metrology sensors, wherein the one or more metrology sensors are configured to detect changes in a parameter of received electrical energy; b. writing at least part of the metrology data to a volatile memory; c. incrementing a write pointer to indicate where to store the metrology data within the volatile memory; and d. repeating steps a through c until a timer expires, then reading at least a portion of the metrology data from the volatile memory.
