EDMA3 Registers
11.4.1.1.8 Queue Priority Register (QUEPRI)
The queue priority register (QUEPRI) allows you to change the priority of the individual queues and the
priority of the transfer request (TR) associated with the events queued in the queue. Because the queue to
EDMA3TC mapping is fixed, programming QUEPRI essentially governs the priority of the associated
transfer controller(s) read/write commands with respect to the other bus masters in the device. You can
modify the EDMA3TC priority to obtain the desired system performance.
The QUEPRI is shown in
and described in
