This article presents a fast charge histogramming method for the position sensitive X-ray GEM detector. The energy
resolved measurements are carried out simultaneously for 256 channels of the GEM detector. The whole process of
histogramming is performed in 21 FPGA chips (Spartan-6 series from Xilinx) . The results of the histogramming process
are stored in an external DDR3 memory. The structure of an electronic measuring equipment and a firmware
functionality implemented in the FPGAs is described. Examples of test measurements are presented.
