presents a peak transfer rate comparison, measured in Mbytes per second where the
internal-SRAM-to-internal-SRAM transfers occur at the core’s datapath width; that is, either 32- or 64-bits
per access. For all transfers involving the slave bus, 32-bit transfer sizes are used. In all cases, the transfer
rate includes the time to read the source plus the time to write the destination.
The second performance metric is a measure of the number of DMA requests that can be serviced in a
given amount of time. For this metric, it is assumed the peripheral request causes the channel to move a
single slave-mapped operand to/from internal SRAM. The same timing assumptions used in the previous
example apply to this calculation. In particular, this metric also reflects the time required to activate the
channel. The eDMA design supports the following hardware service request sequence:
•
Cycle 1: eDMA peripheral request is asserted.
•
Cycle 2: The eDMA peripheral request is registered locally in the eDMA module and qualified.
(TCD.START bit initiated requests start at this point with the registering of the slave write to TCD
bit 255).
•
Cycle 3: Channel arbitration begins.
•
Cycle 4: Channel arbitration completes. The transfer control descriptor local memory read is
initiated.
•
Cycle 5 - 6: The first two parts of the activated channel’s TCD is read from the local memory. The
memory width to the eDMA engine is 64 bits, so the entire descriptor can be accessed in four
cycles.
•
Cycle 7: The first system bus read cycle is initiated, as the third part of the channel’s TCD is read
from the local memory. Depending on the state of the crossbar switch, arbitration at the system bus
may insert an additional cycle of delay here.
•
Cycle 8 –
n
: The last part of the TCD is read in. This cycle represents the 1st data phase for the
read, and the address phase for the destination write.
