The DMA controller transfers data from a source address to a destination address without CPU intervention. For example, the DMA controller can be used to move data from ADC conversion memory to SRAM.
Devices can have up to sixteen DMA channels available. Therefore, depending on the number of DMA channels available, some features described in this chapter are not applicable to all devices. Please refer to the device-specific data sheet for the actual channel count of the DMA.
Using the DMA controller can increase the throughput of peripheral modules. It can also reduce system power consumption by allowing the CPU to remain in a low-power mode, without having to awaken to move data to or from a peripheral.
DMA controller features include:
The DMA controller block diagram is shown in Figure 5-1.
