Apparatus for controlling data transfer between external interfaces through buffer memory using table data having transfer start address transfer count and unit selection parameter

摘要

The present invention transfers data via a buffer memory between first and second external interfaces, on the basis of table data that is set in a table area by a CPU. The table data comprises a transfer start address, a transfer count, and a transfer count unit selection parameter. A transfer count setting section converts the transfer count on the basis of the original transfer count and the transfer count unit selection parameter, then sets the converted transfer count in a transfer count counter. A data transfer section transfers data within a range specified on The basis of the transfer start address and a count result of the transfer count counter.
