14.3 DMA Data Transfer

There are two transfer modes, single transfer and burst transfer, which are selected with the DMCTR0H.DMTM.
14.3.1

Single Transfer Mode

When the DMA start trigger occurs, single data, the size of which is decided with DMCTR0H.DMUT, is trans-
ferred and the data transfer counter consisting of DMCNTH and DMCNTL are decremented by one. When all the
single data transfer finishes, DMA interrupt occurs.
If the DMA start trigger happens during the time after DMA reads the last single data from Source Address and
before the DMCTR1L.DMTEN is set to "1" by software (for example, the period (B) in the Figure:14.3.1), DMA-
AddReq interrupt occurs.
If the DMA start trigger happens during the time after the DMA start trigger occurs and before DMA reads the
data (not limited to the last single data) from Source Address (for example, the period (A) in the Figure:14.3.1),
DMA-Error interrupt occurs.
