12.3.3 Channel Registers
To program a DMA channel’s requester and target addresses and its byte count, write to the DMA
channel registers. Some of the channel registers require the use of a byte pointer (BP) flip-flop to
control the access to the upper and lower bytes. After you write or read a register that requires a
byte pointer specification, the DMA toggles the byte pointer. For example, writing to
DMA0TAR0 with BP=0 causes the DMA to set BP. The clear byte pointer software command
(DMACLRBP) is available so that you can force BP to a known state (0) before writing to the
channel registers. Issue DMACLRBP by writing to location F00CH or 000CH; the data written
to the location doesn’t matter —writing to the location is all that is necessary to cause the DMA
to clear the byte pointer.
