hi!

i assume the mpc8343 dma controllers ability to do internally controlled
operations (csb/csb)
is _not_ affected by deactivating externally controlled operations via
pinmultiplexing in sicrl.

am I correct?=20

thanks

Hmmm... maybe.  In general, if you want an external master for the DMA
controller, I think you need to enable that via various registers.  So
if you don't enable external master, you won't have one.

Does that answer your question?

no.  i was just wondering if anybody encountered problems with internal =
dma
operations
when external control was 'deactivated' by setting the appropriate pin
functions to
... let's say ... gpio and actually do arbitrary i/o on that pins.
