DMA + TCM - "ICLI, Bekir (EXT)" - Apr 22 7:17:39 2009
Hi all,
I got two questions:
1- Can DMA Controller perform data transfer from Tightly Coupled Memory?
If yes,
2- Would it be faster than normal DMA transfer?
Best,
Bekir

Hi Bekir
> 1- Can DMA Controller perform data transfer from Tightly Coupled Memory?
If you look into the manual (I did for the 9263), it tells you that AHB
masters can access TCM at fixed addresses.
> 2- Would it be faster than normal DMA transfer?
Don't know. Why not check it ... ?
