Direct memory access controller (DMA) RM0401
174/771 RM0401 Rev 3
Note: Peripheral port may be the source or the destination (it could also be the memory source in
the case of memory-to-memory transfer).
PSIZE, MSIZE and NDT[15:0] have to be configured so as to ensure that the last transfer
will not be incomplete. This can occur when the data width of the peripheral port (PSIZE
bits) is lower than the data width of the memory port (MSIZE bits). This constraint is
summarized in Table 34.
