Section 7 Data Transfer Controller (DTC)
7.9.2
On-Chip RAM
Transfer information can be located in on-chip RAM. In this case, the RAME bit in SYSCR must
not be cleared to 0.
7.9.3
DTCE Bit Setting
For DTCE bit setting, use bit manipulation instructions such as BSET and BCLR. If all interrupts
are disabled, multiple activation sources can be set at one time (only at the initial setting) by
writing data after executing a dummy read on the relevant register.
7.9.4
Chain Transfer
When chain transfer is used, clearing of the activation source or DTCER is performed when the
last of the chain of data transfers is executed. SCI and A/D converter interrupt/activation sources,
on the other hand, are cleared when the DTC reads or writes to the relevant register.
Therefore, when the DTC is activated by an interrupt or activation source, if a read/write of the
relevant register is not included in the last chained data transfer, the interrupt or activation source
will be retained.
7.9.5
Transfer Information Start Address, Source Address, and Destination Address
The transfer information start address to be specified in the vector table should be address 4n. If an
address other than address 4n is specified, the lower 2 bits of the address are regarded as 0s.
The source and destination addresses specified in SAR and DAR, respectively, will be transferred
in the divided bus cycles depending on the address and data size.
7.9.6
Endian
The DTC supports the big-endian and little-endian format. However, use the same endian format
for writing and reading the transfer information.
