/* Chip Variants */ Mockingboard
== Chip Variants ==
The PSG chip family is composed of 3 variants: the AY-3-8910 with two 8-bit I/O ports, the AY-3-8912 with one 8-bit I/O port and the AY-3-8913 with no I/O port. In addition to the CPC, these chips were also used in the [[ZX Spectrum]], [[MSX]], [[Oric]], [[Vectrex]] and , [[Intellivision]]and Mockingboard.
The PSG chip competed with the DCSG (Digital Complex Sound Generator) chip family (SN76489, SN94624, TMS9919) by Texas Instruments. The DCSG has similar sounding features except that it does not have any envelope control and that its noise generator has its own dedicated channel.
