Block Transfer Mode

In block transfer mode, one operation transfers one block of data. Either the transfer source or the
transfer destination is designated as a block area. Table 8.4 lists the register information in block
transfer mode.
The block size can be between 1 and 256. When the transfer of one block ends, the initial state of
the block size counter and the address register specified as the block area is restored. The other
address register is then incremented, decremented, or left fixed.
From 1 to 65,536 transfers can be specified. Once the specified number of transfers have been
completed, a CPU interrupt is requested.
