No, I don't know what DMA is. I'll look into those now.

How about a boolean latch function? I think this might be possible with the "time since last pulse" counter, but that would require storing how long ago the last pulse was. A latch function might be configurable for "a pulse at least this length" so it could be used on things like switches. (In this past year, it could be used for a kicker passing by a switch to determine if it is at or past the frame perimeter.)
