Abstract: A DMA optimization circuit transfers data from a single source device to a plurality of destination devices on a computer bus. A first DMA control circuit is configured to transfer a payload of data from the source device to a first destination device where the payload of data divided into a plurality of chunks of data. A second DMA control circuit is configured to transfer the payload of data from the source device to a second destination device, and is further configured to perform a logical operation on the data transferred to the second destination device. A synchronization controller is configured to control each DMA control circuit to independently transfer the chunk of data, and receives a signal indicating that both DMA control circuits have finished transferring the corresponding chunk of data. The synchronization controller then transfers of a next chunk of data only when both DMA control circuits have finished transferring the corresponding chunk of data.
