A Question regarding DMA controller trigger source

Hi, NXP Experts,

This question is regarding i.MX_RT500 series MCU. It is about DMA controller's trigger.

Let's say we have two DMA channels, DMA_A and DMA_B. Is it possible to configure the system so that when DMA_A's task is finished, DMA_A sends a trigger to start DMA_B which is programmed with a different task. In the whole process, we expect that there is no CPU involvement.

Thanks!
