DIE

0

DMA Interrupt Enable

 

 

 

 

 

 

Generates a DMA interrupt at the end of a DMA block transfer after the counter is loaded

 

 

 

with its preloaded value. A DMA interrupt is also generated when software explicitly clears

 

 

 

DE during a DMA operation. Once asserted, a DMA interrupt request can be cleared only by

 

 

 

the service of a DMA interrupt routine. To ensure that a new interrupt request is not

 

 

 

generated, clear DIE while the DMA interrupt is serviced and before a new DMA request is

 

 

 

generated at the end of a DMA block transfer—that is, at the beginning of the DMA channel

 

 

 

interrupt service routine. When DIE is cleared, the DMA interrupt is disabled.

DMA Transfer Mode

 

 

 

 

 

 

Specify the operating modes of the DMA channel, as follows:

000

request

 

Yes

Block Transfer—DE enabled and DMA request initiated.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The transfer is complete when the counter decrements to

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

zero and the DMA controller reloads the counter with the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

original value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

001

request

 

Yes

Word Transfer—A word-by-word block transfer (length

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

set by the counter) that is DE enabled. The transfer is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

complete when the counter decrements to zero and the

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

DMA controller reloads the counter with the original

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

010

request

 

Yes

Line Transfer—A line by line block transfer (length set by

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

the counter) that is DE enabled. The transfer is complete

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when the counter decrements to zero and the DMA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

controller reloads the counter with the original value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

011

DE

 

Yes

Block Transfer—The DE-initiated transfer is complete

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

when the counter decrements to zero and the DMA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

controller reloads the counter with the original value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

100

request

 

No

Block Transfer—The transfer is enabled by DE and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

initiated by the first DMA request. The transfer is

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

completed when the counter decrements to zero and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

reloads itself with the original value. The DE bit is not

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

cleared at the end of the block, so the DMA channel waits

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

for a new request.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note:

The DMA End-of-Block-Transfer Interrupt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

cannot be used in this mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

101

request

 

No

Word Transfer—The transfer is enabled by DE and

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

initiated by every DMA request. When the counter

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

decrements to zero, it is reloaded with its original value.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The DE bit is not automatically cleared, so the DMA

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

channel waits for a new request.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note:

The DMA End-of-Block-Transfer Interrupt

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

cannot be used in this mode.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

110–111

 

 

 

 

Reserved

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Note: When DTM[2–0] = 001 or 101, some peripherals can generate a second DMA request while the DMA controller is still processing the first request (see the description of the DRS bits).
