DMA doubt
For word preperatioin time what i thought is the time taken to transfer the data into DMA buffer is it correct ?. Or is any buffer is available inside DMA or not or that we are directly sending the data form disk to memory having a lot of doubt coming to this topic help please @Bikram @prashant sir.
