3.13 DMA Engines

The MV64560 provides six independent DMA engines. These can be used to transfer
blocks of data between PCI interfaces, memory and Flash devices without impacting
on CPU performance. Two of these are XOR DMA engines, which may be used for
Memory Initialization, CRC-32 calculation or ECC.

3.14.1 Serial EEPROM

An 8 KByte Serial EEPROM is provided for non-volatile data storage. The device is
write-protected by default, and can be write-enabled by fitting the
EEPROM Write Enable Link (P5 3-4)
Control Register

3.14.2 Real-Time Clock

A PCF8563 provides real-time clock functions. The device reports year (2 digit),
month, date, hours, minutes and seconds. It has leap year compensation up to 2100
and it also features an alarm capability. Battery back-up is not supported.
