Internally, :cpp:func:`rmt_transmit` constructs a transaction descriptor and sends it to a job queue, which is dispatched in the ISR. So it is possible that the transaction is not started yet when :cpp:func:`rmt_transmit` returns. To ensure all pending transactions to complete, the user can use :cpp:func:`rmt_tx_wait_all_done`.

* Why the RMT encoder results in more data than expected?
* Why the RMT transmits more data than expected?
The RMT encoding takes place in the ISR context. If your RMT encoding session takes a long time (e.g., by logging debug information) or the encoding session is deferred somehow because of interrupt latency, then it is possible the transmitting becomes **faster** than the encoding. As a result, the encoder can not prepare the next data in time, leading to the transmitter sending the previous data again. There is no way to ask the transmitter to stop and wait. You can mitigate the issue by combining the following ways:
The encoding for the RMT transmission is carried out within the ISR context. Should the RMT encoding process be prolonged (for example, through logging or tracing the procedure) or if it is delayed due to interrupt latency and preemptive interrupts, the hardware transmitter might read from the memory before the encoder has written to it. Consequently, the transmitter would end up sending outdated data. Although it's not possible to instruct the transmitter to pause and wait, this issue can be mitigated by employing a combination of the following strategies:
- Increase the :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::mem_block_symbols`, in steps of {IDF_TARGET_SOC_RMT_MEM_WORDS_PER_CHANNEL}.
- Place the encoding function in the IRAM.
- Enables the :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::with_dma` if it is available for your chip.
- Increase the :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::mem_block_symbols`, in steps of {IDF_TARGET_SOC_RMT_MEM_WORDS_PER_CHANNEL}.
- Place the encoding function in the IRAM with ``IRAM_ATTR`` attribute.
- Enable the :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::with_dma` if DMA is available.
- Install the RMT driver on a separate CPU core to avoid competing for the same CPU resources with other interrupt heavy peripherals (e.g. WiFi, Bluetooth).

* RMT 编码器为什么会产生比预期更多的数据?
* RMT 为什么会发送比预期更多的数据?
RMT 编码在 ISR 上下文中发生。如果 RMT 编码会话耗时较长(例如,记录调试信息),或者由于中断延迟导致编码会话延迟执行,则传输速率可能会超过编码速率。此时,编码器无法及时准备下一组数据,致使传输器再次发送先前的数据。由于传输器无法停止并等待,可以通过以下方法来缓解此问题:
RMT 的传输层编码是在 ISR 上下文中完成的,如果 RMT 编码耗时较长(例如,增加了过多的调试追踪信息),或者由于中断延迟和抢占导致编码工作被推迟执行,导致传输器在编码器更新内存数据之前就读取了老数据,致使传输器再次发送先前的数据。我们无法告诉硬件传输器自动等待新数据的更新,但是可以通过以下方法来缓解此问题:
- 增加 :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::mem_block_symbols` 的值,步长为 {IDF_TARGET_SOC_RMT_MEM_WORDS_PER_CHANNEL}。
- 将编码函数放置在 IRAM 中。
- 如果所用芯片支持 :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::with_dma`,请启用该选项。
- 增加 :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::mem_block_symbols` 的值,步长为 {IDF_TARGET_SOC_RMT_MEM_WORDS_PER_CHANNEL}。
- 将编码函数放置在 IRAM 中。
- 如果所用芯片支持 :cpp:member:`rmt_tx_channel_config_t::with_dma`,请启用该选项。
- 将RMT驱动安装在另外一个CPU核上避免和其他高中断频率的外设竞争同一个CPU资源。
