Hi,
Where can I find detailed documentation to program the DMA2 controller of the STPC Elite. Thanks. Cyber2003-07-30 11:41 PM
The DMA of the STPC follow standard PC architecture and is compatible with intel 8237.
You can find interesting informations here: http://docs.freebsd.org/doc/4.0-RELEASE/usr/share/doc/handbook/dma.html The best would be to get a book on PC architecture like 'The PC Bible' or a book on ISA bus (or the spec of the 8237!). Note the DMA is on ISA and have the same limitation as the bus itself: it is slow and limited to 16MB of address space. Farfalla2003-08-18 03:59 AM
Thanks,
I also found an old book on the Intel 8237, and DMA works fine.
