EDMA3CC has two channel types, DMA and QDMA, where EDMA3CC0 has 16 DMA channels and 8 QDMA channels, and EDMA3CC1 and EDMA3CC1 each has 64 DMA channels and 8 QDMA channels. The DMA channel trigger may be programmed, while the channel trigger for QDMA is done automatically after the trigger word is written.
As a specific example, the core performing constant false alarm processing uses an EDMA which can be operated independently of the CPU to complete ping-pong prefetching of data, that is, the core performs constant false alarm processing on ping data and also completes prefetching of pong data to be processed next, and performs pong data processing and also completes prefetching of ping data to be processed next, and the sum channel data of 40 rows in the 1600 × 64 data matrix transmitted through the SRIO is moved to the memory L2SRAM of the DSP from the DDR3 each time, so as to obtain a 40 × 32 data matrix. After the processing is finished, the result is shifted from the DSP memory L2SRAM to the external storage DDR3 by using EDMA, a 32 x 40 data matrix is obtained, the same ping-pong processing is consistent with the pre-fetching operation, namely the processing result of shifting the pong data when the ping data is processed, and the processing result of shifting the ping data when the pong data is processed.
