41.4.4.3 Programming DMAC for Multiple Buffer Transfers
Notes: 1. USR means that the register field is manually programmed by the user.
2. CONT means that address are contiguous.
3. REP means that the register field is updated with its previous value. If the transfer is the first one, then the user must manu-
ally program the value.
4. Channel stalled is true if the relevant BTC interrupt is not masked.
5. LLI means that the register field is updated with the content of the linked list item.
41.4.4.4 Replay Mode of Channel Registers
During automatic replay mode, the channel registers are reloaded with their initial values at the completion of each
buffer and the new values used for the new buffer. Depending on the row number in Table 41-2 on page 938, some
or all of the DMAC_SADDRx, DMAC_DADDRx, DMAC_CTRLAx and DMAC_CTRLBx channel registers are
reloaded from their initial value at the start of a buffer transfer.
41.4.4.5 Contiguous Address Between Buffers
In this case, the address between successive buffers is selected to be a continuation from the end of the previous
buffer. Enabling the source or destination address to be contiguous between buffers is a function of
DMAC_CTRLAx.SRC_DSCR, DMAC_CFGx.SRC_REP, DMAC_CTRLAx.DST_DSCR and
DMAC_CFGx.DST_REP registers.
