Here’s the thing about coding. When you’re working on embedded projects, it’s quite easy to run into hardware limitations, and quite suddenly, too. You find yourself desperately trying to find a way ...

Last time, in Part 1, we introduced somebasics behind Direct Memory Access (DMA) -why it's needed, and how it's structured and controlled. This time,we'll focus on the classifications of DMA transfers ...

Here’s the thing about coding. When you’re working on embedded projects, it’s quite easy to run into hardware limitations, and quite suddenly, too. You find yourself desperately trying to find a way ...

Now that there are embedded media processors available that can handle both MCU and DSP tasks, C programmers who are very familiar with the MCU model of application development are transitioning into ...

Direct memory access (DMA) technology has been around for more than 20 years. DMA has been used principally to offload memory accesses (reading and/or writing) from the CPU in order to enable the ...

PUBG developers banned over 30,000 accounts back in August for DMA-based hacks, bringing the total number of bans for DMA to ...

Direct Memory Access (DMA) is a controller feature that has been available at least since the original IBM PC. It can be used by hackers to compromise your otherwise very heavily protected computer.

Editor's Note: Multicore architectures find use across a diverse range of applications thanks to their performance and efficiency. By combining several general-purpose MCU cores — or MCU cores and ...

Transferring large blocks of data within memory as well as to and from peripherals. Direct memory access (DMA) avoids loading the CPU's register with small amounts of data from memory and storing them ...
