On Type 0 eCAP modules, the CPU was required to begin data transfers using DMA. New to the Type 1 eCAP, a separate DMA Trigger (ECAP_DMA_INT) enables continuous transfer of capture data from eCAP registers to on-chip memory using DMA. Any one of the four available interrupt events (CEVT1, CEVT2, CEVT3, and CEVT4) can be selected as the trigger source for ECAP_DMA_INT using ECCTL2 [DMAEVTSEL].
New to the Type 3 eCAP is the ability to trigger DMA events in APWM mode. Any one of three available events (period match, compare match, or both) can be selected as the trigger source for ECAP_DMA_INT using ECCTL2 [DMAEVTSEL].
