SAA1099P Description

Short technical summary and product information.

The SAA1099P is a 6-voice programmable sound generator (PSG) chip from Philips, detailed in this TinyTapeout submission. It offers 6 frequency generators with 8 octaves and 256 tones per octave, covering a frequency range from 31 Hz to 7.81 kHz. Additionally, it includes 2 noise generators with a frequency range from 61 Hz to 15.6 kHz and 2 envelope generators. The chip operates with a common clock frequency of 8 MHz, though some historical applications like the GameBlaster clocked it at 7.15909 MHz. The highest frequency the tone generators can reach is approximately 6.99 kHz. Historically, the SAA1099 was used in systems such as Silicon Graphics IRIS Professional 4D and IRIS Power 4D machines, the Creative Sound Blaster 1.0 card, and the Sam Coupe home computer.
