DMA Engine (Secondary
Data Movement Controller)
Linedancer contains a powerful DMA engine which streams data into and out of the ASProCore in parallel with the core processing, enabling fully pipelined operation with a bandwidth of 3.2 GBytes/second.
Data to be processed, such as frames of digital video, is stored in on-chip or off-chipmemory, which can be expanded up to 1GByte.
The DMA engine has advanced 2D and 3D data transfer modes which are be used to automatically map the data onto the one-dimensional ASProCore array.
