Table19-5. DCM Field Descriptions
Bits Name Description
0 FB Fly-by mode. See Table19-6..
0Dual-address mode.
1Fly-by (single-address) mode. The internal IDMA transfer buffer is not used. Valid only in
peripheral-to-memory (S/D=10) or memory-to-peripheral (S/D=01) modes.
1 LP Low priority. Applies to memory-to-memory accesses only. See Section4.3.2, “System
Configuration and Protection Registers.”
0 The IDMA transaction to memory is in mi ddle CPM request pri ority.
1The IDMA transaction to memory is in low CPM request priority.
Note that IDMA single-address (fly-by) transfers with external peripherals are always high
priority, ignoring this bit and bypassing other pending SDMA requests.
2–4 Reserved, should be cleared.
5 TC2 Driven on TC[2] during IDMA transactions. The TC[0–1] signals are always driven to 0b11
during IDMA transactions.
6 Reserved, should be cleared.
7–9 DMA_WRA
P
DMA wrap. Defines the size of the IDMA transfer buffer. The IDMA pointer wraps to the
beginning of the buffer whenever DMA_WRAP bytes have been transferred to/from the buffer.
000 64 byte
001 128 byte
010 256 byte
011 512 byte
100 1024 byte
101 2048 byte
11x Reserved
Table19-7 and Table19-8 describes the relations between the parameter’s initial value and
SS_MAX, STS, DTD and DCM[S/D] parameters.
The IDMA transfer buffer (DPR_BUF) size should be consistent with DCM[DMA_WRAP]; that is
DPR_BUF = 64 X 2(DMA_WRAP).
10 SINC Source increment address.
0 Source address pointer (S_PTR) is not incremented in the source read transaction. Should
be cleared for peripheral-to-memory transfers if the peripheral has a fixed address.
1CP increments the source address pointer (S_PTR) with the number of bytes transferred in
the source read transaction. Used for memory-to-memory and memory-to-peripheral
transfers.
In fly-by mode, SINC controls the memory address increment and should equal DINC.
11 DINC Destination increment address.
0Destination address pointer (D_PTR) is not changed in the destination write transaction.
Used for memory-to-peripheral transfers if the peripheral has a fixed address.
1CP increments the destination pointer (D_PTR) with the number of bytes transferred in the
destination write transaction. Used for memory-to-memory and memory-to-peripheral
transfers.
In fly-by mode, DINC should equal SINC.
