EDMA Controller
6.10 Element Size and Alignment
The ESIZE field in the options of an event parameter entry allows the user to
specify the element size that the EDMA should use for a transfer. The EDMA
controller can transfer 32-bit words, 16-bit half-words, or 8-bit bytes in a trans-
fer.
The addresses must be aligned on the element size boundary. Word and half-
word accesses must be aligned on a word (multiple of 4) and half-word (multi-
ple of 2) boundary respectively. Unaligned values can result in undefined op-
eration.
