6.3.6.10 DMA Controller Operation

All receiver audio channels and all transmitter audio channels are each assigned to a single DMA Controller channel.

The DMA Controller reads from the I2SMCC_RHR and writes to the I2SMCC_THR for all audio channels successively.

The DMA Controller transfers may use 32-bit word, 16-bit halfword, or 8-bit byte depending on the value of the I2SMCC_MRA.DATALENGTH field.

The DMA chunk size field (DMACHUNK) of the Mode Register B (I2SMCC_MRB) should correspond to the DMA channel configuration. The supported chunk according to the configuration is available in the two tables below
