The XMEGA Direct Memory Access (DMA) Controller is a highly flexible DMA Controller capable
of transferring data between memories and peripherals with minimal CPU intervention. The
DMA controller has flexible channel priority selection, several addressing modes, double buffer-
ing capabilities and large block sizes.
The DMA Controller can move data between memories and peripherals, between memories and
between peripheral registers directly.
There are four DMA channels that have individual source, destination, triggers and block sizes.
The different channels also have individual control settings and individual interrupt settings and
interrupt vectors. Interrupt requests may be generated both when a transaction is complete or if
the DMA Controller detects an error on a DMA channel. When a DMA channel requests a data
transfer, the bus arbiter will wait until the AVR CPU is not using the data bus and permit the DMA
Controller to transfer data. Transfers are done in bursts of 1, 2, 4 or 8 bytes. Addressing can be
static, incremental or decremental. Automatic reload of source and/or destination address can
be done after each burst transfer, block transfer, when transmission is complete, or disabled.
Both application software, peripherals and Events can trigger DMA transfers.
The DMA Controller allows high-speed transfers with minimal CPU intervention
