The H8S/2357 Group includes a data transfer controller (DTC). The DTC can be activated by an interrupt or software, to

transfer data.

The features of the DTC are:

• Transfer possible over any number of channels

 Transfer information is stored in memory

 One activation source can trigger a number of data transfers (chain transfer)

• Wide range of transfer modes

 Normal, repeat, and block transfer modes available

 Incrementing, decrementing, and fixing of source and destination addresses can be selected

• Direct specification of 16-Mbyte address space possible

 24-bit transfer source and destination addresses can be specified

• Transfer can be set in byte or word units

• A CPU interrupt can be requested for the interrupt that activated the DTC

 An interrupt request can be issued to the CPU after one data transfer ends

 An interrupt request can be issued to the CPU after the specified data transfers have completely ended

• Activation by software is possible

• Module stop mode can be set

 The initial setting enables DTC registers to be accessed. DTC operation is halted by setting module stop mode.
