Bits Name Description
31 RUN
Run Bit (read / write).
0 – stops the channel
1 – starts the channel
Lets software start or stop the channel. If the run bit is cleared in the middle of the burst, the
burst will complete before the channel is stopped.
Software must write to DDADRx before it sets this bit for Descriptor Fetch Mode.
After the channel stops, the DCSR[STOPSTATE] bit is set to 1. Software must poll the
DCSR[STOPSTATE] bit to determine the channel’s status or set the STOPIRQEN to force
an interrupt after the channel stops. Software must write a 1 to the bit to restart a stopped
channel.
After clearing the run bit to stop the channel, an end interrupt is not guaranteed to happen if
the length bits, DCMDx[LENGTH], is zero. Software must determine if the transfer is done
after clearing the run bit.
30
NODESC
FETCH
No-Descriptor Fetch (read / write).
0 – Descriptor Fetch Mode
1 – No-Descriptor Fetch Mode
Determines if the channel has a descriptor.
If this bit is set to a 0, the channel is in Descriptor Fetch Mode. See Section 5.1.4.2 for
information on the DMAC registers.
If this bit is set to a 1, the channel is in No-Descriptor Fetch Mode. See Section 5.1.4.1 for
information on the DMAC registers.
29 STOPIRQEN
Stop Interrupt Enable (read / write).
0 – no interrupt if the channel is in uninitialized or stopped state
1 – enables an interrupt if the channel is in uninitialized or stopped state
Allows an interrupt to pass to the interrupt controller if the DCSR[STOPSTATE] bit is 1. If
the DCSR[STOPINTEN] bit is 0, the interrupt is not generated after the channel stops. If
software writes a 1 to this bit before the channel starts, an interrupt is generated.

8 REQPEND
Request Pending (read-only).
0 – no pending request
1 – the channel has a pending request
Indicates that the DMA channel has a pending request.
