Hello ! Is there some TI resource describing the throughput of EDMA transfers ? It would be great if there is a definitive way to choose between two types of transfers, to get the same effect. For e.g. when I tried a 2D to 1D transfer to move two columns of 16- bit data, it took more than 2.5 times as long as when I tried to same transfer as a 1D - 1D tranfer of a column of 32 bit data. (using 6711 DSK) I would really appreciate any pointers, advice on this issue. Thank you in advance ka |

When you program your transfer as 16-bits words, the DMA will do twice the number of memory access.
