Philips Semiconductors Preliminary Specification TM ThunderBird Avenger PCI Audio SAA7785 Accelerator timer data can be accessed as an I/O device. This timer can be used by game developers to keep track of time elapsed to synchronize the video to the audio stream. The timer can be polled or interrupt driven and is selectable by the user application. DMA DMA is for the Sound Blaster registers, the DSP Mastering Device (DMD), and the S/P DIF output. To cover as many systems as possible, the DMA

The Address Generator is also capable of looping without intervention from the DSP code. The DSP kills voices by instructing the Address Generator to stop fetching data. Once the samples are fetched, they are stored in the Virtual Register’s input sample buffer for processing by the Sample Fetch Accelerator. Sample Fetch Accelerato
