Abstract

A histogram generator system uses a sensor to periodically sample a value of a physical variable to produce at least one sample of the physical variable and a selector allocate each sample of the value of the physical variable into a corresponding counter of a counter array. The counter accumulates a number of occurrences of the value of the sample(s) of the physical variables.
