Abstract
Systems, apparatus, articles of manufacture, and methods are disclosed for real-time trip sequence detection for cascaded trip events. An example integrated circuit device includes trip detector circuitry, a first counter, a first memory, a second counter, a second memory, and control circuitry in communication with the trip detector circuitry, the control circuitry to, in response to a first trigger detected by the fault detector circuit, store a value of the first counter in the first memory, and in response to a second trigger detected by the fault detector circuit, store a value of the second counter in the second memory. The trip detector circuitry will continue the same detection, identification and counter storage logic for the subsequent triggers limited only by the available storage capacity.
