Direct memory access (DMA) is a means of having a peripheral device control a processor’s memory bus directly. DMA permits the peripheral, such as a UART, to transfer data directly to or from memory ...

In the most simple computer system architecture, all control lies with the CPU (Central Processing Unit). This means not only the execution of commands that affect the CPU’s internal register or cache ...

This Application Note explores the implications associated with performing Direct Memory Access (DMA) operations on an ARM multi-core system such as the ARM11 MPCore and Cortex-A9 MPCore. The target ...

Last time, in Part 1, we introduced somebasics behind Direct Memory Access (DMA) -why it's needed, and how it's structured and controlled. This time,we'll focus on the classifications of DMA transfers ...

This document describes how to set up the DMA (Direct Memory Access) and also gives an outline of the operation and describes the procedures for using a sample program. The features of the operation ...

Here’s the thing about coding. When you’re working on embedded projects, it’s quite easy to run into hardware limitations, and quite suddenly, too. You find yourself desperately trying to find a way ...
