Event-chaining in peripheral

Here will be placed examples of some devices uses Cortex M0 microcontroller. This low-consumptive 32-bit core MC's fast enough, had impressive peripheral, and easily programmed by high level language (C++). Here also enough space for data logging and statistic.

But main benefit is new type of connection for peripheral, that allows event-chaining between inner peripheral devices as timers, ADCs, memory. It gives simple and sure synchronization between devices by excluding software delays. Reduces using central processor (CPU) , it lowing current consumption and keeps CPU free for math and control. This is simple and quick way to create real-time low-consumptive devices with high reliability. Moreover, seems like there is a great milestone from emulation electronic device by CPU, like it was before,  to fully CPU-independent (except clocking) real-time electronic device inside chip, just configured and serviced by CPU.
