Abstract

An apparatus and a method for processing high speed data using hybrid Direct Memory Access (DMA) are provided. The method includes determining a size of data to be transmitted, determining a memory access method of the data by comparing the determined size of the data with a first threshold, and determining an I/O bus access method of the data by comparing the determined size of the data with a second threshold.
