Figure 9-25. eDMA Operation, Part 2
After the inner minor byte count has been moved, the final phase of the basic data flow is performed. In
this segment, the address path logic performs the required updates to certain fields in the channel’s TCD:
for example., SADDR, DADDR, CITER. If the outer major iteration count is exhausted, then there are
additional operations which are performed. These include the final address adjustments and reloading of
the BITER field into the CITER. Additionally, assertion of an optional interrupt request occurs at this time,
as does a possible fetch of a new TCD from memory using the scatter/gather address pointer included in
the descriptor. The updates to the TCD memory and the assertion of an interrupt request are shown in
Figure 9-26 .
