8.3.4  EXDMA Mode Control Register (EDMDR) 
EDMDR controls EXDMAC operations. 
Bit  Bit Name  Initial Value  R/W  Description 
15 EDA  0  R/(W) EXDMA Active 
Enables or disables data transfer on the 
corresponding channel. When this bit is set to 1, this 
indicates that an EXDMA operation is in progress. 
When auto request mode is specified (by bits MDS1 
and MDS0), transfer processing begins when this 
bit is set to 1. With external requests, transfer 
processing begins when a transfer request is issued 
after this bit has been set to 1. When this bit is 
cleared to 0 during an EXDMA operation, transfer is 
halted. If this bit is cleared to 0 during an EXDMA 
operation in block transfer mode, transfer 
processing is continued for the currently executing 
one-block transfer, and the bit is cleared on 
completion of the currently executing one-block 
transfer. 
If an external source that ends (aborts) transfer 
occurs, this bit is automatically cleared to 0 and 
transfer is terminated. Do not change the operating 
mode, transfer method, or other parameters while 
this bit is set to 1. 
0: Data transfer disabled on corresponding channel 
[Clearing conditions] 
•  When the specified number of transfers end 
•  When operation is halted by a repeat area 
overflow interrupt 
•  When 0 is written to EDA while EDA = 1 
(In block transfer mode, write is effective after 
end of one-block transfer) 
•  Reset, NMI interrupt, hardware standby mode 
1: Data transfer enabled on corresponding channel 
Note:  The value written in the EDA bit may not be 
effective immediately.
