Virtual FIFO

Virtual FIFO DMA is designed to offload the control of the serial interface. The difference between

the virtual FIFO DMA and the full-size/half-size DMA is that the virtual DMA contains an additional

FIFO controller.

The figure below illustrates the operations of virtual FIFO DMA used for UART RX.



READ: DMA controller reads data from UART and increments the WRITE pointer of the FIFO

controller.



WRITE; DMA controller writes data that was area from UART to SRAM in the area defined

before enabling the virtual FIFO.



READ: MCU reads data when FIFO is not empty and the amount of data is over a pre-defined

threshold. The read transaction will be finished only when DMA controller reads back the

data from SRAM.



READ: DMA controller reads data from SRAM and increments the READ pointer of the FIFO

controller.

DMA Channels and Priority Control

There are two full-size DMA channels, 10 half- size DMA channels, and 13 virtual FIFO DMA channels

in MT7697.
