Simple project for using DMA on Raspberry Pi for displaying digital clocks with seven-segment displays. In my case, board also has shift register for segments, so I was need to write 8 bit in serial mode then light up one digit etc. That is require a lot of CPU cycles and very precise time mapping (for uniform display illumination) in case of using simple GPIO. DMA allows to solve this task almost without using CPU.
