3.6 Memory to Memory DMA Transfer
The following are steps for changing both source address and destination address to transfer
data from memory to another. The DMA transfer utilizes the workings that assign a higher priority
to the DMA0 transfer if transfer requests simultaneously occur in two DMA channels. Figure
3.6.1 shows the operation timing, Figure 3.6.2 shows the block diagram, and Figures 3.6.3 and
3.6.4 show the set-up procedure.
Use the following peripheral functions:
Timer mode of timer A
Two DMAC channels
One-byte temporary RAM (address 0800
16
)
Specifications
(1) Transfer the content of memory extending over 128 bytes from address F8000
16
to a 128-
byte area starting from address 00400
16
. Transfer the content every time a timer A0 interrupt
request occurs.
(2) Use DMA0 for a transfer from the source to built-in memory, and DMA1 for a transfer from
built-in memory to the destination.
(1) A timer A interrupt request occurs. Though both a DMA0 transfer request and a DMA1 trans-
fer request occur simultaneously, the former is executed first.
(2) DMA0 receives a transfer request and transfers data from the source to the built-in memory.
At this time, the source address is incremented.
(3) Next, DMA1 receives a transfer request and transfers data involved from built-in memory to
the destination. At this time, the destination address is incremented.

The DMA0 operation and DMA1 operation are not necessarily executed in succession
due to the a cycle steal operation.
The instruction cycle varies from instruction to instruction.
Since the parts of the RD and WR signals shown in short-dash lines vary in step with
writing to the internal RAM, waveforms are not output to the RD and WR pins.
