13.4.4 DMA Transfer Types
DMA transfer has two types; single address mode transfer and dual address mode transfer. They
depend on the number of bus cycles of access to source and destination. A data transfer timing
depends on the bus mode, which has cycle steal mode and burst mode. The DMAC supports the
transfers shown in table 13.8.
