Abstract
A data transfer driver transfers multiple byte data words supplied by a data processing device to a peripheral device as a sequence of single data bytes. The driver operates selectively in either a handshaking mode, wherein data bytes are transferred to the peripheral device asynchronously in response to handshaking signals from the peripheral device, or in a streaming mode where data bytes are transferred to the peripheral device periodically. The driver includes circuitry that permits the data processing device to check the operation of the driver and to monitor handshaking signals produced by the peripheral device.
