ABSTRACT:
There is provided a method of controlling direct memory access for a digital signal-processing system. Direct memory access (DMA) instructions for executing data transfer by direct memory access between a data memory storing data and an external device are provided in a program, together with arithmetic processing instructions for executing arithmetic processing. The data transfer by the direct memory access is executed between the data memory and the external device according to each of the DMA instructions which has been decoded during execution of the program, upon decoding thereof. There is also provided a digital signal-processing system which causes data transfer by direct memory access to begin. An arithmetic operation device of the system arithmetically processes data read out from a data memory of the same under the control of decoded instructions of a program. The program contains DMA instructions for executing the data transfer by the direct memory access as well as arithmetic processing instructions. The data transfer by the direct memory access between an external device and the data memory is started when each of the DMA instructions is decoded during execution of the program.
