NEXT
PDMA Next Descriptor Table Offset
This field indicates the offset of the next descriptor table address in system memory.
Write Operation:
If the system memory based address is 0x2000_0000 (PDMA_SCATBA), and the next descriptor table is start
from 0x2000_0100, then this field must fill in 0x0100.
Read Operation:
When operating in scatter-gather mode, the last two bits NEXT[1:0] will become reserved, and indicate the
first next address of system memory.
Note 1:
The descriptor table address must be word boundary.
Note 2:
Before filling transfer task in the descriptor table, user must check if the descriptor table is complete.
