Hi all,

I'm new to LPC and need some help. I wanna set up a Timer triggered DMA transfer to transfer data from pin to a defined adress in the SRAM1. Every time the MR0 matches the DMA transfer should start. I work with the LPC4088 Quickstart Board. I set the Board up to run at 120MHz. My Peripherals also run at 120MHz.  I studied the UM and wrote some code but when I compile nothing happens. The timer works fine and I see a 10MHz output on the defined pin.

I attached my simple code I wrote extra for this.

Hope anyone of you can help me.

Best Tim

#include "LPC407x_8x_177x_8x.h"

#define PERIPHSRAM1           0x20004000

char adcData[11] = {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1};

volatile uint32_t DMATCCOUNT = 0;
volatile uint32_t DMAERRCOUNT = 0;




void DMA_IRQHandler(){
    uint32_t temp;
    DMATCCOUNT++;
    temp = LPC_GPDMA->IntTCStat;
    if(temp){
        DMATCCOUNT++;
        LPC_GPDMA->IntTCClear |= temp;
    }
    temp = LPC_GPDMA->IntErrStat;
    if(temp){
        DMAERRCOUNT++;
        LPC_GPDMA->IntErrClr |= temp;
    }
    return;

Hello  Tim Krebs,

About "when I compile nothing happens.", could you describe this more detail please.

I recommend you check module by module, for example, use software start DMA, check it can work well,

then use Timer trigger DMA.

Hi Alice,

I got it working. The failure was, that I wanted to do a transfer from RAM to RAM, but that does not work with DMA. So I started to setup a transfer directly from the pins and now everything works as it should.

Best
