Main program
15.5.4 Holding DMA transfer pending by DWAITn bit
When DMA transfer is started, transfer is performed while an instruction is executed. At this time, the operation of the
CPU is stopped and delayed for the duration of 2 clocks. If this poses a problem to the operation of the set system, a
DMA transfer can be held pending by setting the DWAITn bit to 1. The DMA transfer for a transfer trigger that occurred
while DMA transfer was held pending is executed after the pending status is canceled. However, because only one
transfer trigger can be held pending for each channel, even if multiple transfer triggers occur for one channel during the
pending status, only one DMA transfer is executed after the pending status is canceled.
To output a pulse with a width of 10 clocks of the operating frequency from the P10 pin, for example, the clock width
increases to 12 if a DMA transfer is started midway. In this case, the DMA transfer can be held pending by setting the
DWAITn bit to 1.
After setting the DWAITn bit to 1, it takes two clocks until a DMA transfer is held pending.
Figure 15-10. Example of Setting for Holding DMA Transfer Pending by DWAITn Bit
Caution When DMA transfer is held pending while using two or more DMA channels, be sure to held the
DMA transfer pending for all channels (by setting DWAIT0, DWAIT1, DWAIT2, and DWAIT3 to 1). If
the DMA transfer of one channel is executed while that of the other channel is held pending, DMA
transfer might not be held pending for the latter channel.
