Abstract
Digital Recording is provided using SWO technology wherein a microprocessor is located in a pistol and a single wire EEPROM is mounted on each cartridge used by the pistol. Power and data can be sent over a single wire from the microprocessor to the single wire EEPROM to communicate information about the pistol, such as the serial number, make, and model of the firearm.
