The only thing I worried about is I2C may still receive some feedbacks after DMA timeout. In this case the feedbacks may lead to abnormal state in PIO mode.But it will be ignored in DMA model. That's why I tend to delay force-disable DMA until the next transmission begin. Could you please give me some suggestion?
