Hi all,

   

I'm new to the world of PSoC and would like to use the PSoC5 as a system monitor for a complex motherboard. It needs to monitor a lot of variables (such as voltage, current and temperature) and if something goes wrong, then store them somehow so it can be read back by a PC.

   

My idea is to create a file and store it on the internal flash on the PSoC whenever an error occurs, but the part I'm going to have trouble with is the file system and interfacing to the PC.

   

Do you think that it is possible to use the emFILE component to format a section of the internal flash / deal with the file I/O, and set up a USB component to mount this as mass storage? I'm sure this will involve an amount of bodging, but I'm not sure if it is even technically possible.

   

Thoughts?

   

Thanks,

   

Tom
