A system for storing pre-distorted output samples in a memory includes a sample counter, a programming interface module, and a comparator. The sample counter counts the pre-distorted output samples, generates a dynamic count value, receives a capture counter status signal, and generates a first count value. The programming interface module receives and outputs the first count value, an offset value, and a capture control signal, and generates a first interrupt signal. The comparator receives the first count value, the offset value, the dynamic count value, and the capture control signal, generates a final value, compares the final value with the dynamic count value, and generates a trigger signal when the final value equals the dynamic count value based on the capture control signal. The trigger signal initiates the storing of the pre-distorted output samples in the memory.
