NOTES:
1. Application has a need to copy data items from three separate locations in memory into a peripheral data
register.
2. Application sets up µDMA “task list” in memory, which contains the pointers and control configuration for three
µDMA copy “tasks.”
3. Application sets up the channel primary control structure to copy each task configuration, one at a time, to the
alternate control structure, where it is executed by the µDMA controller.
