Central Processor Acts as High-Speed DMA Controller
Abstract
Computer-system architecture enables system host central processor (CP) to make high-speed, direct-memory-access (DMA) data transfers without cost and complexity of adding dedicated DMA controller. New system, CCP used as DMA controller, obviating need for dedicated DMA controller; yet maximum transfer rates equivalent to those obtained with dedicated DMA controller. Useful wherever dedicated DMA controller desired because of required data-transfer rates.
