Abstract:
A subsystem (200) is provided at least Direct Memory Access (DMA) device (220) utilized to provide instructions to facilitate the operation of a subsystem processor (210). In one embodiment, a system level processor (102) initiates the provision of instructions for a subsystem (210). The DMA device may be additionally or alternatively utilized to provide data transfer capabilities to a plurality of data channels in a subsystem (200). The DMA device processes channels in a time limited manner to ensure that data is processed in a manner appropriate for time critical data.
