Overview
Block Diagram
The Peripheral DMA Controller (PDC) transfers data between on-chip serial peripherals such as
the UART, USART, SSC, SPI, MCI and the on- and off-chip memories. Using the Peripheral
DMA Controller avoids processor intervention and removes the processor interrupt-handling
overhead. This significantly reduces the number of clock cycles required for a data transfer and,
as a result, improves the performance of the microcontroller and makes it more power efficient.
The PDC channels are implemented in pairs, each pair being dedicated to a particular periph-
eral. One channel in the pair is dedicated to the receiving channel and one to the transmitting
channel of each UART, USART, SSC and SPI.
The user interface of a PDC channel is integrated in the memory space of each peripheral. It
contains:
The peripheral triggers PDC transfers using transmit and receive signals. When the pro-
grammed data is transferred, an end of transfer interrupt is generated by the corresponding
peripheral.
