16.5.5 Forced termination by software 
After the DSTn bit is set to 0 by software, it takes up to 2 clocks until a DMA transfer is actually stopped and the DSTn 
bit is set to 0. To forcibly terminate a DMA transfer by software without waiting for occurrence of the interrupt (INTDMAn) 
of DMAn, therefore, perform either of the following processes. 
<When using one DMA channel> 
• Set the DSTn bit to 0 (use DRCn = 80H to write with an 8-bit manipulation instruction) by software, confirm by polling 
that the DSTn bit has actually been cleared to 0, and then set the DENn bit to 0 (use DRCn = 00H to write with an 8-
bit manipulation instruction). 
• Set the DSTn bit to 0 (use DRCn = 80H to write with an 8-bit manipulation instruction) by software and then set the 
DENn bit to 0 (use DRCn = 00H to write with an 8-bit manipulation instruction) two or more clocks after. 
<When using two or more DMA channels> 
• To forcibly terminate DMA transfer by software when using both DMA channels (by setting DSTn to 0), clear the 
DSTn bit to 0 after the DMA transfer is held pending by setting the DWAIT0 and DWAIT1 bits of both channels to 1. 
Next, clear the DWAIT0 and DWAIT1 bits of both channels to 0 to cancel the pending status, and then clear the 
DENn bit to 0.
