<td>alternateRegister </td><td>This tag can reference a register that has been defined above to current location in the description and that describes the memory location already. This tells the SVDConv's address checker that the redefinition of this particular register is intentional. The register name needs to be unique within the scope of the current peripheral. A register description is defined either for a unique address location or could be a redefinition of an already described address. In the latter case, the register can be either marked <em>alternateRegister</em> and needs to have a unique name, or it can have the same register name but is assigned to a register subgroup through the tag <em>alternateGroup</em> (specified in version 1.0). </td><td>identifierType  </td><td>0..1   </td></tr>
<tr>
<td>dataType </td><td>It can be useful to assign a specific native C datatype to a register. This helps avoiding type casts. For example, if a 32 bit register shall act as a pointer to a 32 bit unsigned data item, then <em>dataType</em> can be set to "uint32_t *". The following simple data types are predefined:<ul>
<li><span class="XML-Token">uint8_t</span>: unsigned byte</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">uint16_t</span>: unsigned half word</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">uint32_t</span>: unsigned word</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">uint64_t</span>: unsigned double word</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">int8_t</span>: signed byte</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">int16_t</span>: signed half word</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">int32_t</span>: signed world</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">int64_t</span>: signed double word</li>
<li><span class="XML-Token">uint8_t *</span>: pointer to unsigned byte</li>

Based on the configured operation model being A or B, the register acts as reload or compare value. The register DMA_DATA is specified as a pointer to unsigned word data.
