AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In direct memory access circuits, the latency between the data source and the data destination is not fixed, which may cause data transmission to be blocked and affect performance.

Method used

By employing a buffer circuit, first and second channels, a write status judgment circuit, a read address generation circuit, and a control circuit, and through arbitration and count value management, data reading and writing operations are optimized to achieve out-of-order processing.

Benefits of technology

It improves the efficiency of direct memory access circuitry, ensuring that data transfer is not affected by single-channel latency, and that data writing and reading can be interrupted and performed discontinuously.
